Thermomechanical Optimization and Comparison of a Low Thermal Inertia Mold with Rectangular Heating Channels and a Conventional Mold

Molds used to manufacture high-performance composites currently do not meet the demand of manufacturers in terms of production rate due to massive mold designs, using straight-through heating channels, that are not thermally reactive. In this paper, using a thermal finite element model, the thermome...
