Modeling the process of surface ribbing of the articles made from wood-polymer composites
Here a mathematical model of the process of surface ribbing of pieces made of wood-polymer composites based on solution of an equation of thermal conductivity using effective characteristics of thermal conductivity and thermal capacity of composites with different types of polymer matrixes is offered. А characteristic feature of wood-polymer composite boards, that their linear dimension is bigger than their thickness, was used in creating a mathematical model. This feature provides an opportunity to suppose that while heating the wood-polymer composite board in the thermal environment chаmber with infrared heating element, the change of the temperature will proceed only in the direction which is perpendicular to the surface of the board.
