Filling Results
These are the result types that are available for filling, packing, cooling, and warpage analyses.
Filling Results
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Temperature | Review the temperature evolution of the fluid entering into
the mold cavity. Check paticular regions for excessive heating
or cooling, and determine the appropriate fill speed for uniform
temperature distribution. |
| Flow Front Temperature | Review the temperature at the time of filling. |
| Velocity | Examine the velocity vectors evolution during the filling of
the mold. Click the Show and
Options buttons to change to velocity
contour fill animation. |
| Pressure | Review pressures obtained during filling inside the mold
cavity. |
| Filling Time | Review the time it takes the material to reach different
areas within the part. The filling results can help you
determine the best way to fill the part. You can also detect
filling patterns that can indicate the potential for incomplete
filling, unbalanced flow, weld lines and air pockets. |
| Air Traps | Locate air trapped in the mold during filling and consider
venting options. |
| Weld Lines | Locate regions during filling where two flow fronts meet.
Such regions may cause structural and cosmetic issues. |
| Mold Temperature | Review temperature variances in the mold. |
