Twisting is one of the most important steps in the yarn spinning, which influences the geometry of spinning triangle and determines the properties of spun yarns. Airflow is one of the most important measures on improving yarn spinning. In this paper, a kind of air nozzle with vortex guiding channel was designed and used on the modification of ring spinning system, and the spun yarn qualities was studied by analyzing the airflow field in the nozzle. Firstly, the three-dimensional physical model of nozzle was given using CAD software according to the geometrical size of the practical nozzle model. Then, the numerical simulations of the three-dimensional flow field in the nozzle were given using Fluent software. Finally, two different kinds of yarns 10Ne and 20Ne were spun in the modified ring spinning system with the nozzle installed. The airflow pressure 0.01 Mpa and two different swirling directions, anticlockwise and clockwise, were chosen. The qualities of spun yarns, hairiness, strength, evenness, and ...
