Heat-Setting Synthetic Fibers

Flexural Behavior of Cementitious Composites Reinforced by Synthetic Fibers

The application of fibers to reinforce cementitious materials is a well-known subject. At first, asbestos fibers are used in industrial process to produce fiber reinforced cement sheets. Thereafter, various types of synthetic fibers are produced and used as asbestos substitutes. The aim of the present work is to evaluate the effect of synthetic fibers on the flexural behavior of cementitious co...

Heat dissipative solitons in optical fibers

We propose a one-dimensional model governing the propagation of heat waves in an optical fiber (the “fiber fuse”). The model has solutions in the form of high temperature localized waves moving towards the input end of the fiber, fueled by the laser power. These waves can be ignited by local heating at any point along the fiber. The effect of such a wave is irreversible damage to the fiber core...

Modeling for Heat-Exchangers of Heat-Setting Machine

A model for heat-exchangers of heat-setting machine is proposed. First, techniques of heat exchangers in heat-setting machines is introduced. Then on basis of Newton cooling law, heat transfer formula is proposed. Third, three heat damps between oil, tube body and air are introduced respectively. According to basic heat transfer theory, equation for temperatures of heated air is obtained. Pract...
