Abstract:

In view of conventional rotor spinning's limitation which can only spin the fiber raw materials with similar properties of pure spinning or blending because of single carding technique, it is difficult to produce the blending yarn with large difference in fiber properties. Based on the recent research of dual-feed and dual-comb rotor spinning technology, this paper briefly introduced the yarn forming mechanism of conventional rotor spinning and the characteristics of dual-feed rotor spinning technology, and did the comparative analysis of rotor spinning machines' structure in the two rotor spinning systems. By means of fluid dynamics numerical simulation and sample yarn spinning test, this paper further analyzed conventional rotor spinning and dual-feed rotor spinning comparatively from the two aspects of the airflow distribution inside the rotor, which includes the vortex, airflow velocity and pressure, and the yarn performance. The research result verifies the feasibility and superiority of the dual-feed rotor spinning.

Key words: dual-feed rotor spinning, conventional rotor spinning, numerical simulation, airflow distribution, yarn performance
