| Abstract [eng] |
Theoretical observations of the packing properties of non-compressible round fibres for two idealized modifications of the open-packed yarn model are discussed. The modifications differ in the method of arrangement of fibres within the cross-sectional ring layer. Modification I has a number of fibres regularly increasing in further layers, and Modification II has the fibres maximum packed in the layers. A procedure for obtaining the number of fibres in the layers of Modification II was proposed. The investigation showed that with the beginning of the 5th layer, the above-mentioned modifications have different packing properties. Because of additional fibres in the layers of Modification II, packing fractions in the layers and yarn obtained were greater if compared with those for Modification I. Analysis of packing properties was made up to 12 layers of the yarn model and also was done for a case of an infinitely large numbers of layers or fibres in a yarn. |
