Resin Flow During the Cure of Fiber Reinforced Composites

Department of Mechanical Engineering and Applied Mechanics The University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109

Experiments were performed studying resin flow during the cure of fiber reinforced, organic matrix composites using a system in which the resin was simulated by viscous liquids and the fibers either by layers of thin rods or by layers of porous plates. The flow pattern was observed and the flow rate was measured for different applied pressures. The data were compared to the results of the Springer-Loos model and excellent agreement was found bet ween the data and the model.
