Recent investigations on the development of flow instabilities during the flow and deformation of polymeric melts and concentrated suspensions (1, 2) have revealed that the slip coefficient (3), which links the slip velocity at the wall to the stress field, is itself dependent on the total normal stress (or in some situations the pressure) at the wall. In this presentation the methodology involved in the imposition of the pressure dependent slip coefficient on the coupled twin screw extrusion and die flow will be described. Typical results, focusing on the processing of energetic formulations, will be compared with corresponding modeling results using conventional flow boundary conditions.
