Abstract:

In order to explore the causes for the disorder between cotton fiber micronaire value and cotton fiber quality, the working principle equation of cotton fiber airflow meter was deduced by taking the average diameter and maturity of cotton fiber as independent variables. Firstly, the flow rate of cotton fiber sample and micronaire value was measured under the condition of equal pressure and density, followed by the measurement of the fineness and maturity of six different types of cotton fiber sample using mid-section weighing method and microscopy method respectively. The values were compared with the flow rate calculated using the equation. The results show that the flow through the air inlet is approximately proportional to the square of the product of maturity and diameter of cotton fibers under a constant pressure difference. The permeability model of cotton fibers was constructed by imitating the structure of cotton fibers. According to diameter and maturity, the simulation was carried out by using ANSYS CFX simulation software. The maximum relative error between simulated and experimental results is 7.92%, which proves the validity of the model. It lays a foundation for modifying the Kozeny-Carman constant of cotton fibers and for improving the accuracy of calculation.

Key words: cotton fiber, micronaire value, average diameter, maturity, ANSYS CFX simulation
