TY - JOUR TI - Numerical Investigation of Mold Heating Power and Time in Metal Layered Composite Production AB - The curing time of epoxy resin is an important phenomenon in the production of metal-layered composites. In this study, the heating time of the mold and epoxy resin was investigated by performing numerical analysis based on time to reduce the curing time. The most consistent mesh structure was chosen among five different mesh numbers in terms of the difference between temperature results. 10 different cases were created to examine different heater powers and different operating patterns. The results were examined by creating a temperature-time graph and contours showing the temperature distribution. As the number of cartridges and heater power increase, higher temperatures are reached in a shorter time. Even with the same heater power, different operating patterns can lead to differences in results in terms of temperature. The different operating pattern was seen as an independent parameter in heater power for obtaining a homogeneous temperature distribution.
