L depth cm LIH 9 0.9 10 3 0.6 (mean value) 3.33 9 0.3 30 Hence NQ from Equation 5.63: AT from Equation 5.62: The constants in the Equation 5.62 and Equation 5.63 depend on the type of polymer used. For screws other than 3-zone screws the geometry term in Equation 5.63 has to be defined in such a way that NQ correlates well with the measured temperature fluctuations. 5.2.5 Scale-up of Screw Extruders Based on the laws of similarity, PEARSON [13] developed a set of relationships to scale-up a single screw extruder. These relations are useful for the practicing engineer to estimate the size of a larger extruder from experimental data gathered on a smaller machine. The scale-up assumes equal length to diameter ratios between the two extruders. The important relations can be summarized as follows: (5.64) (5.65) (5.66) (5.67)
where HF = feed depth H = metering depth D = screw diameter N" = screw speed Indices: 1 = screw of known geometry and 2 = screw to be determined. The exponent s is given by where nR is the reciprocal of the power law exponent n. The shear rate required to determine n is obtained from Example Following conditions are given: The resin is LDPE with the same constants of viscosity as in Example 1 of Section 5.1.1.4. The stock temperature is 200 0 C. The data pertaining to screw 1 are: D1 = 90 mm; HF = 12 mm; H1 = 4 mm feed length = 9 D1 transition length =2 D1 metering length =9 D1 output Ih1 = 130kg/h screw speed N1 = 80 rpm The diameter of screw 2 is D2 = 120 mm. The geometry of screw 2 is to be determined. Solution The geometry is computed from the equations given above [3]. It follows that D2 =120 mm Hp2 = 14.41mm H2 = 4.8 mm m2 = 192.5 kg/h N1 = 55.5 rpm Other methods of scaling up have been treated by SCHENKEL [29], FENNER [30], FISCHER [31],andPoTENTE [32]. Examples for calculating the dimensions of extrusion screws and dies are illustrated in the following figures:
