Runner balance constraints (Procedure)
For a Runner Balance analysis to determine the correct runner dimensions for balanced flow to multiple cavities, you need to specify the maximum size to which the runners can be resized.
Runner balance constraints (Quick Reference)
You can set the dimensions for the hot and cold runners.
Runner balance constraints-Runner types
Runner balance constraints are an optional analysis input that you can set for a Runner Balance analysis.
