extrucal

Author: John Lee

extrucal provides functions for calculating throughput in extrusion processes and for generating tables and plots for throughput with respect to screw RPM and channel depth in metering section.

A large portion of arguments for the functions were given the typical values. The arguments for functions are as follows: screw size, channel depth, polymer melt density, screw RPM, screw pitch, flight width, number of flights

Installation

extrucal can be installed PyPI using the following terminal command:

$ pip install extrucal

Package Functions

  • throughput_cal()

    • This function calculates the extrusion throughput (Drag Flow) given the screw size, RPM, the channel depth of metering channel, and screw pitch
  • throughput_table()

    • This function generates a table containing the extrusion throughput with respect to channel depth and screw RPM
  • throughput_plot()

    • This function generates a plot containing the extrusion throughput with respect to channel depth and screw RPM

Usage

extrucal can be used to calculate throughput in extrusion processes and to generate table and plot for throughput as a function of screw RPM and channel depth in the metering section of screw

from extrucal.extrusion import throughput_cal, throughput_table, throughput_plot
