Abstract
A numerical study for the simulation of melt in an injection-compression molding process by using moving grid is proposed in this paper. The fully three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations are solved together with the front transport equation using a front capturing approach. Different from previous studies, the proposed model can take the movement of cavity through a moving grid approach. The melt filling of a disk is conducted to illustrate the applications of the proposed numerical model with several computations under different processing conditions. The numerically predicted results show the influence of compression time or compression speed in determining the molding pressure and the melt temperature.
