Boundary conditions include those variables that define how the heat transfer conditions between the mold and the material are modelled.
Boundary conditions include coolant inlet and all the variables associated with the coolant, valve gate timing and all associated variables, the mold surface temperature profile controller, the hot gate pressure controller and the gas inlet controller and all its associated variables.
