Why care about Heat Energy?How much cooling is enough?
Heat energy input is the starting place.
For cooling a single mold
Or an entire plant!

Introducing The Strange and Interesting Thermal Behavior of
Polymers The basic molecule of a polymer is called a monomer.
Polymers are made up of long chains of monomers.
2 Broad Classes of Polymers:Amorphous and Semi-Crystalline
Specific Heat, Latent Heat, and Polymers

Heat Transfer Basics Energy cannot be created or destroyed.
Energy must be removed from the molded parts and sent somewhere else
This is called heat transfer.
Heat transfer occurs when temperatures are not equal
There are 3 types of heat transfer-conduction, convection, and radiation.

Long lever - Turbulence
Long lever – Increased Cooling AreaLonger & Larger Diameter Circuit
Multiplies Power of Coolant
Short lever - Coolant temp. changes mold temp, but small effect on heat transfer
Short lever - More flowafter turbulence hasdiminishing benefit
Mold Maintenance Strategies
Scale: The Silent & Sneaky Enemy of Optimum Cooling .05” Thick Scale Can Equal
3 – 5” of Steel in terms of heat transfer resistance
Scale increases roughness & pressure drop & decreases flow through cooling circuits
Scale buildup dramatically increases energy costs for pumping and cooling
