title = "Numerical simulation and experimentation of water-assistedco-injectionmolding of a non-circular tube",
abstract = "Water-assisted co-injection molding (WACIM) is a complex, innovative injection molding process. A threedimensional model for WACIM was setup and a k-ω turbulence model was adopted to deal with the turbulent flow of the water. A free interface of the skin-inner melt and the inner melt-water were tracked by the volume of fluid (VOF) method. Numerical simulations for the filling stage of WACIM parts with four types of cross-sections were carried out using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. Experiments were conducted to verify the simulation results. The results of the experiments were in agreement with those of the simulations. The shape of the cavity cross-section had an obvious effect on the penetration section of the inner melt, while the shape of the water penetration ended up being round. The penetration area of the water increased in the flow direction, and the residual thicknesses of the inner melt downstream was thinner than the melt upstream.",
