When it was first published some two decades ago, the original Handbook of Lubrication
and Tribology stood on technology's cutting-edge as the first comprehensive reference to …

The main nozzle of an air jet loom plays an essential role in the weft insertion process. This
role involves sucking the weft yarn from the prewinder and launching it into the reed …

Free convection and mass transfer Casson fluid flow through a parallel plate with uniform
magnetic field is investigated. The uniform magnetic field is applied perpendicular to the …

Air-jet weaving is an innovative weaving technique that uses friction between the yarn
surface and air stream to propel the weft yarn. The interaction between the yarn surface and …

In Part I of this series, air pressure and air velocity are measured on an air-jet filling insertion
simulator with tube and profiled reed. In this second part, the filling yarn insertion time is …

In air jet looms, the weft yarn is transported from the prewinder to the reed by means of an air
flow. In this work, the motion of a yarn inside a main nozzle during the first stage of an …

This paper deals with the three-dimensional computer simulation of the weft insertion
process as a possible solution to avoid costly weaving trials when researching this process …

In this study, a weft insertion system in air jet weaving looms was controlled by using fuzzy
logic. The effects of yarn properties on weft yarn velocity along the tube have been …

Air flow in air jet weaving machines is complicated: it is unsteady, turbulent, and can be
compressible or incompressible depending on the velocity. A separated flow model is …

Yarn tension is an important parameter which affects fabric properties and quality. An on-line
tension measurement system was developed in which a Denkendorf yarn tension tester …
