TY - JOUR TI - EFFECT OF AIRFLOW ON NANOFIBER YARN SPINNING AU - He Jian-Xin AU - Wang Li-Dan AU - Zhou Yuman AU - Qi Kun AU - Cui Shi-Zhong JN - Thermal Science PY - 2015 VL - 19 IS - 4 SP - 1261 EP - 1265 PT - Article AB - The paper proposes a new air-jet spinning method for the preparation of continuous twisted nanofiber yarns. The nozzle-twisting device is designed to create the 3-D rotating airflow to twist nanofiber bundles. The airflow characteristics inside the twisting chamber are studied numerically. The airflow field distribution and its effect on nanofiber yarn spinning at different pressures are also discussed.
