The anisotropy caused by the fiber orientation, which is inevitably generated by the flow during injection molding of short fiber reinforced polymers, greatly influences dimensional accuracy, mechanical properties, and other quality of the final product. Since the filling stage of the injection molding process plays a vital role in determining fiber orientation, an accurate analysis of flow field for the filling stage is needed. Unbalanced filling occurs when a complex or a multi-cavity mold is used leading to development of regions where the fiber suspension is under compression. It is impossible to make an accurate calculation of the flow field during filling with the analysis assuming incompressible fluid. A mold with four cavities with different filling times was produced to compare the numerical analysis results with the experimental data. There was a good agreement between the experimental and theoretical results when the compressibility of the polymer melt was considered for the numerical simulation. The fiber orientation states for compressible and incompressible fluids were also compared qualitatively as well as quantitatively in this study
