"POLYFLOW has become a critical tool in our development of new process and product designs. This software has enabled us to understand glass and heat flow patterns during the formation of glass containers. For the first time, we are able to fully comprehend what is happening as the molten glass works its way through the forming machines. The knowledge gained from the simulations has already led to several new process improvements. POLYFLOW is now an integral tool in our design evaluations and product innovation."

"The models serve as a basis for more geometrically complex analyses that will allow us to optimize process improvements before time and money are spent on experimental testing."

"FLUENT has been a valuable tool for helping us improve the efficiency of our glass fiber production."

"At Hercules Fiber Division, we have employed modeling techniques for many years. As commercial CFD codes have become more flexible and reliable, we have adapted them into our modeling tool chest. Our experience with FLUENT has been quite positive; we have used FLUENT extensively in a variety of problems relating to fiber spinning. This has led to new insights in both polymer flow in spinnerettes and quench airflow dynamics."
