The SOLIDWORKS Plastics solver is enhanced to improve the overall
accuracy of simulation results.
- The
Mold-Melt Heat Transfer Coefficient
parameter in the Injection Unit Settings
PropertyManager is available for the Shell analysis procedure. Use this
parameter to model the heat transfer between the polymer and the mold walls
during the Filling stage of the injection molding process.
In
previous releases, this parameter was available for the Solid analysis
procedure only and for the SOLIDWORKS Plastics Professional and SOLIDWORKS
Plastics Premium products. This parameter is now available for the
SOLIDWORKS Plastics standard as well.
- For the Shell analysis procedure, the Flow and Pack analyses
support multipoint material data and specific heat (C) and thermal conductivity
(K) material properties that can vary with temperature.
