Numerical modelling of the glass shaping forms cooling
Havelková, Martina ; Schovánek, Petr
The purpose of heat treatment of semi finished glass pieces in shaping forms is not only to fit their shape but also to reduce internal stresses. Thermal differences are unwanted and have to be eliminated in the cooling procedure of the glass pieces. Simulations of different types and sizes of shaping forms and complex model cooling were accomplished. The aim of these simulations was to optimise geometrical parameters, clamping conditions and material of the form, so that thermal differences at glass or glass – form interface are minimized during the cooling.
