Gating Design

The interface frame will be gated directly
into the center cylinder of the frame.
*********************************
The drawing shows two designs for the in-gate on the frame

Part with Small GateC.jpg (11340 bytes)
A = Small Diameter Gate
Part with Large GateB.jpg (11696 bytes)
B = Large Diameter Gate

Which Gating System Design (Design A or Design B) will provide the more rapid, less turbulent flow into the mold cavity?
