Experimental Investigation into a New Melt-Blowing Die for Dual Rectangular Jets

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this work, online measurements of turbulent air flow field in the melt-blowing process for the slot die with inner stabilizing pieces and the corresponding blunt die were carried out with a hot-wire anemometer. The experiment results reveal that the inner stabilizing piece has an important impact on the flow field below the die face. The new modified die is aerodynamically superior, should contribute to produce much finer melt-blowing fibers and require less energy than the corresponding blunt die.
