- Additional information
- Paper reports results from EPSRC EP/I014551/1 thermal contact resistance modelling project with the University of Cardiff. A novel technique using a high speed infrared camera via a sapphire window in the mould wall provided heat transfer coefficient data that could be compared with existing boundary condition data in Autodesk Moldflow and showed that the default value was not accurate for small scale moulding processes. The work has been exploited for further funded opportunities including commercial R&D (Sabic £260k Microneedles) and a European research project EU H2020 HIMALAIA - N°766871 €4.7M.
