An analysis of the air-jet yarn texturing process. Part 5, The effect of wetting the yarns

It is shown that the quantity of water mixing into the air-flow is an insignificant proportion of the total amount of water used in the air-jet texturing process and that this has a negligible effect on the air-flow in the texturing nozzle. It is suggested that only a fraction of this water is neede...
