Orifice flow measurements have been performed at high strain rates on bulk molding compound (BMC) using convergent dies. A range of die angles and bore diameters was examined. Two models for flow behavior have been compared. It appears that, with BMC, there is a transition from constrained convergence to convergence with recirculation at a die semiangle of approximately 56 degrees.
