The family of unidirectional continuous fiber reinforced polymeric composites are currently used in automotive bumper beams and load floors. The material properties and mechanical characteristics of the compression molded parts are determined by the curing behavior, fiber orientation and formation of knit lines, which are in turn determined by the mold filling parameters. In this paper, a new model is presented which can be used to predict the 3-dimensional flow under consideration of the slip of mold-composites and anisotropic viscosity of composites during compression molding of unidirectional fiber reinforced thermoplastics for isothermal state. The composites is treated as an incompressible Newtonian fluid. The effects of longitudinal/transverse viscosity ratio A and slip parameter $\alpha$ on the buldging phenomenon and mold filling patterns are also discussed.

Fiber reinforced composite materials are widely used in automotive industry to produce parts that are large, thin. lightweight. strong and stiff. It is very important to know a charge shape in order to have good products in the compression molding. In particular, the product such as a bumper beam is composed of the random and unidirectional fiber mats. This study analyzes numerically the characteristics of flow fronts such as a bulging phenomenon made by changing viscosity of random mat and unidirectional fiber mat and slip parameters. And it is discussed that the effect of ratio of viscosity A and stack type on mold filling parameters

섬유로 강화된 열가소성 복합재의 성형과정 중에는 유동특성에 미치는 금형내 충전패턴의 제어나 섬유배향 및 섬유함유율과 같은 성형공정 인자들의 영향을 예측하는 것이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 등온상태에서 두께가 얇거나 두꺼운 성형품을 압축성형하는 경우에 발생하는 유동선단과 압력분포, 속도구배 등을 예측함을 목적으로 한다. 이때 복합재는 비압축성 뉴턴유체로 하였으며, 성형공정 변수들에 미치는 미끄럼 지배상수 $\alpha$와 점성비 $\zeta$의 영향에 대해서 고찰한 내용을 보고한다.

Fiber reinforced plastic composites is widely used to make be lightening of aircraft and automotive owing to having high specific strength and specific modulus. And it is very important to know a charge shape in order to have good products in the compression molding. In particular, the product such as a bumper beam is composed of the random and unidirectional composite mats. Its deformation and charge shape are very different by stack type of random and unidirectional mats. In this paper, the characteristics of flow fronts such as a bulging phenomenon for step-type random/unidirectional composite mats and slip parameters are studied numerically. And the effects of viscosity ratio and stack type on the mold filling parameters are also discussed.
