Abstract
An autoclave was a sealed welly container which used for the process involved high temperature and pressure. Past researches focused on the efficiency of autoclave by reduction of cycle time and other properties. This project aimed to investigate the velocity and temperature distribution inside the autoclave, determined the suitable fan and heater position for uniform velocity and temperature distribution inside the autoclave. To illustrate the velocity and temperature distribution inside the autoclave, CFD simulation apps such as Computational Fluid Dynamic, FLUENT ANSYS was used. From the result gained from simulations, the required parameter that velocity distribution for achieving the uniform flow was 1m/s. While the temperature distribution was in stable that surrounded the mold with the required velocity of air flow above 1m/s. From the comparison of different velocities towards each temperature distribution, the recommended was air with 1m/s velocity.
