Numerical modelling of the blowing phase in the production of glass containers

Abstract: The industrial manufacturing of glass containers consists of several phases, one of which is the blowing phase. This paper describes the development of a numerical simulation tool for this phase. The hot liquid glass is modelled as a viscous fluid and its flow is governed by the Stokes equations. We use the boundary element method to solve the Stokes equations and obtain the velocity profile at the glass surface. The movement of the surface obeys an ordinary differential equation. We describe three methods to … Show more
