1Abstract
The present work presents numerical simulations of dispersive and distributive mixing of a two phase system being processed in a single screw extruder under various conditions. Models were developed to quantify the degree of mixing of liquid-liquid and solids-liquid systems, for a given set of material properties, operating conditions and extruder geometry.Natalia Domingues acknowledges FCT Portuguese Foundation (Fundacao para a Ciencia e Tecnologia) for grant SFRH/BD/19605/2004
