1. Graduation project:
- Project ID: CKM-112
- Project title: Research on optimizing air cover to serve the heating process for rectangular
injection mold cavities
2. Initial data and documents:

- Injection mold parameters
- Studies on mold heating using hot gas
- Experimental design and optimization methods
- Experimental equipment for measuring temperature distribution
3. Main content of the thesis:

- Design a 3D heating model for the mold cavity using a rectangular air cover. From this
process, creating an important mesh model will be done by meshing in the software.
Establish a table of simulation parameters and simulate experimental cases. Finally, compile
the results and proceed with data planning. Optimize the dimensions of the air cover.
Compile the results and write the report.
4. Expected products:

- 3D model of the mold cavity heater
- Table of simulation parameters
- Data planning results
