A hybrid coextrusion and lamination process has been developed to fabricate macrochanneled bioceramic scaffolds. This process was mainly composed of three steps (i.e., coextrusion of thermoplastic compound, lamination, and thermal treatment), forming unique pore channels in dense bioceramic body. Pore channels were formed by removing carbon black material, while calcium phosphate or Tetragonal Zirconia Polycrystals (TZP) with a calcium phosphate coating layer were used as dense body. Two kinds of pore structures were fabricated; that is, the pore channels were formed in uni- or three-directional array. Such macrochanneled bioceramic scaffolds exhibited the precisely controlled pore structure (pore size, porosity, and interconnection), offering excellent mechanical properties and cellular responses.

Three-dimensional numerical simulation of isothermal/nonisothermal coextrusion process of two immiscible polymers through a rectangular channel has been done using the finite element method. The encapsulation phenomenon with the less viscous layer encapsulating the more viscous layer was investigated with the generalized Newtonian fluids. The interface position around the symmetric plane obtained by numerical simulation nearly coincided with the one observed in experiments, but the degree of encapsulation was less than the one observed experimentally. Open boundary condition method was found to be applied to the simulation of nonisothermal coextrusion process, however, the results are not far from those using the fully developed boundary condition, because the temperature development along the downstream direction is very slow in the case of convection dominated flow. When the inlet velocity is increased, the interface profile does not change in isothermal flow, while it moves upward in nonisothermal situation. The degree of encapsulation decreases along the downstream direction in nonisothermal flow. When the inlet temperature increases compared to the wall temperature, the outlet interface moves downward and the degree of encapsulation increases. The difference of degree of encapsulation between the simulation and the experiments seems to arise from the viscoelastic effect of the materials. It was concluded that the nonisothermal effect alone does not explain the complex coextrusion process and the viscoelastic effect needs to be considered.

Numerical simulation of coextrusion process of viscoelastic fluids within a die has been carried out. In the coextrusion process velocity profile at the outflow boundary is not known a priori, which makes it difficult to impose the proper boundary condition at the outflow boundary. This difficulty has been avoided by using the open boundary condition (OBC) method. In this study, elastic viscous stress splitting (EVSS) formulation with streamline upwind (SU) method has been used in the finite element method. In order to test the validity of the OBC method, comparison between the results of fully developed condition at the outlet and those of OBC has been made for a Newtonian fluid. In the case of upper convected Maxwell (UCM) fluid, the effect of outflow boundary condition on the interface position has been investigated by using two meshes having different downstream lengths. In both cases, the results with the OBC method showed reasonable interface shape. In particular, for the UCM fluid the interface shape calculated with OBC was independent of the downstream length, while the results with the zero traction condition showed oscillation of interface position close to the outlet. Viscosity difference was found to be more important than elasticity difference in determining the final interface position. However, the overshoot of interface position near the con-fluent point increased with elasticity.

In this study an attempt was made to simulate the coextrusion process of the cladded finned tube manufacturing by extrusion of plasticine. The effects of the billet and the plate inserted between the ingot and extrusion die on the variation of clad thickness of the extruded tube were studied. The results showed that cladded tube with uniform thickness can be obtained by a proper combination of clad thickness of billet and the plate. The relative strength of the billet and clad materials did not affect significantly on the variation of the clad thickness of the extruded tubes.

Al-2wt.$\%$Zn 합금은 특히 해수에 대한 내식성이 우수하여 기화기 튜브의 회생양극재료로 사용되고 있다. 그러나 Al-2wt.$\%$Zn 용사코팅재는 모재금속과 코팅층사이의 결합강도부족, 해수의 낙하에너지에 의해 코팅층은 박리 된다. 이러한 용사코팅충의 문제점을 해결하고자 클래드재와 모재금속을 동시압출법을 통하여 클래드튜브 제조공정을 개발하였다. 클래드튜브의 내식성은 용사코팅튜브에 비하여 최소 2배 이상 향상되었다.
