A screw extruder is 50 mm in diameter, 1 m long, has a 50mm lead, a channel 5 mm deep and a flight 3 mm wide. The circular die through which the extruded material forms the shape of a rod is of diameter 4 centimeters and length 5 cms. The viscosity of the thermoplastic fiber suspension that goes through the die to form the rod is 100 Pa. s. If you want to manufacture 3600 solid rods of diameter 4 centimeters and length 25 cms each day in a shift of 10 hours what should be the RPM of the screw? Also find the power requirements for this extruder. What will be the pressure build up within the extruder?
