Simulated pressure and temperature profiles related to extrusion experiments by Spalding et al. (SPE ANTEC 2006)

Simulated axial pressure and temperature profiles related to single-screw extrusion experiments reported by Spalding et al. [1] The simulations were applied to the melt-conveying zones using non-isothermal network theory alongside three-dimensional nonlinear curved-channel models and two-dimensional nonlinear leakage flow models. The simulation results serve to validate the three-dimensional nonlinear curved-channel models published alongside this dataset. [1] M.A. Spalding, G.A. Campbell, F. Carlson, K.
