Young, J.A. Heminger] A model is presented to simulate the steady-state growth of a fiber produced by the edge-defined film-fed growth (EFG) process. Equations describing the axisymmetric transport of heat in the melt and fiber are discussed. Heat transfer between the system and the surrounding environment is assumed to take place via convection and radiation. Given the fiber translation velocity, the external temperature profile, the die temperature, and the input flow rate or the pressure, asymptotic solutions for the temperature profiles in the melt and fiber, and the melt/gas and solidifying interfacial shapes are developed in the limit of a small melt slenderness ratio (fiber radius/approximate melt height). The effect of process parameters on the shape of the fiber system is investigated.
