Mathematical Model for Yarn Unwinding Part ΙΙ: Conic Packages

Article Preview

Abstract:

Mathematical modeling can be used to simulate the unwinding of yarn from packages of different shapes. This method can be applied to design packages that can sustain high unwinding velocities at low and steady tension in the yarn. In the case of conic packages the angular velocity of unwinding depends not only on the winding angle as is the case for cylindric packages, but also on the apex angle. We will show that the dimensionless angular velocity depends very little on the apex angle. The apex angle, however, also determines the effective radius of the package at the lift-off point, therefore the angular velocity can be proportionally higher. We will compare unwinding from a cylindrical and a conic package with equal smallest radius and show that unwinding from the conic package is faster due to higher average radius of the package at the lift-off point.
