## Abstract A numerical model of mixing in singleโscrew extrusion is developed which uses a twoโdimensional unsteady analogue to threeโdimensional continuous mixing. This twoโdimensional unsteady analogue uses the transverse and axial velocities to calculate an apparent trรกnsverse streamline veloci

A flow analysis of non-Newtonian fluids inside co-rotating tangential twin-screw extruders is presented with the emphasis on mixing phenomena. A new simplified approach was proposed in modelling the flow, i.e. the flow in twin-screw extruders was considered as a sequence of flows in two regions: (i)
Twin screw extruders are common for mixing and compounding of different polymers and additives in the production of materials with enhanced properties. However, the flow field and resulting mixing that occur inside these extruders are not well understood. For gaining a better understanding of the fl
In this study, the finite element method was used to investigate the effects of screw speed, entering peroxide distribution, and pressure-to-drag flow ratio on the mixing characteristics of steady non-isothermal reactive flows in a forward conveying element of a self-wiping twin screw extruder. The
