Popis: Melt blowing is one of the important methods for producing ultrafine fibers. The production of melt blowing is the nonwoven. Fiber diameter has crucial effect on the property of the nonwovens. In the melt-blowing process, many achievements have been published on the fiber diameter distribution along the spinning line. Note that all the results were obtained by methods of mechanical analysis, online measurements through high-speed photography and offline measurements from the production of nonwoven. In this study, a new method for calculating the fiber diameter distribution along the spinning line near the die face was revealed. This method was based on the geometry of the fiber path in the melt-blowing process. The fiber diameter reduction was calculated by this method and then compared with the experimental results obtained by other researchers. The results show that the proposed method is feasible.
