ملخص المقالة :
In this paper, Vacuum Assisted Resin Transfer Molding (VARTM) method was simulated by analytical solution. Then the effect of parameters like fiber density, distribution of layer thickness, perform layer thickness, resin viscosity was investigated theoretically. Obtained results show that by selecting optimum distribution layer thickness, increasing fiber volume fraction, reducing viscosity of resin, maximum speed could be achieved in the process in such a way by optimizing these parameters the production speed will be improved.
