Abstract
This paper presents the melt flow behavior (MFB) of an acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), Polyproplene (PP), Polylactic Acid (PLA), ABS mix 10% Copper and ABS mix 10% Iron in the simulation. In this study, the effect MFB of ABS mix with 10% Iron and 10% Copper material was investigated based on the viscosity, density, thermal conductivity, melting temperature and specific heat of material properties. The MFB of metal filled in polymer matrix composite (PMC) through the FDM nozzle was investigated using Finite-Element Analysis (ANSYS CFX 12). Based on the result obtained, pressure outlet of mix ABS copper and ABS iron in extruder nozzle was higher value compared with others plastic material. The velocity was increased since the nozzle diameter is smaller than the entrance diameter. It can be observed that, the melt flow behavior of metal filled in PMC are affected on pressure drop, velocity and the nozzle size at the exit nozzle.
