Continuous fiber reinforced polymer composites can be produced by the injection of a reactive fluid into a mold with preplaced reinforcement. Mold filling modeling softwares such as our RTMFLOT software are being developed to help design and production engineers meet their requirements for part production. The utilization of accurate permeability values is an absolute necessity for relevant mold filling simulation. This paper presents permeability results for several reinforcements. Experimental techniques being used to measure the permeability are also discussed. Several points are highlighted and suggestions are made to help the investigator in the search for reliable permeability data.
