Resumen
The vacuum infusion is a process usually applied to manufacture large structures of
composite materials, such as wind turbine blades. The specific stiffness and weight ratio
required by these structures can be achieved by manufacturing sandwich composites.
The forecast by numerical simulation of the resin infusion flow is an indispensable tool
to design and optimize the manufacturing process of composite. Present work analyzes
by numerical simulation the mold filling process of a sandwich composites, performed
by fiberglass plies with different fiber orientations and a perforated core. The flow
through a single perforation of the core is analyzed and the influence of the permeability
values of fiberglass on the volume flow through core perforations is determined. In
order to reduce the computing costs, a transfer function to simulate the flow through
the perforations is developed and integrated in the numerical code by computational
subroutines. A 3D numerical modeling of a ...
