Temperature, internal mold result

The Temperature, internal mold result shows the cycle-average temperature of the mold for a 3D model.

Using this result

Using the Cutting Plane tool, you can use this result to identify hot spots in the mold that exist because of inadequate cooling.

Note: Ensure that the mold block elements are not visible; otherwise you will not see the result.

You can use this result to help design the cooling system for maximum effectiveness.

Things to look for

• Hot spots in the mold indicate residual heat and may lead to uneven cooling and warpage.
• Cool spots in the mold may lead to uneven cooling and part failure.
