Computational Modeling of the Pulling Force in a Conventional Pultrusion Process

Article Preview

Abstract:

Pultrusion process is gaining increasing attention in several sectors, due to the high productivity and quality achievable. Recent researches highlighted the influence of the pulling force on the quality of pultruded products. In this paper a pulling force model, accounting for compacting, viscous, and frictional effects in a conventional pultrusion process has been implemented. The model is based on the combination of an impregnation, a thermochemical, and a frictional sub-models. Obtained outcomes evidenced, for the considered case,adominant role of the viscous drag.
