Air-jet filling insertion is the most popular way of insertion systems in weaving. The heart of the air-jet filling insertion is the air flow, which provides the necessary propelling force for the yarn. In this work, the characteristics of airflow in air-jet filling insertion are discussed. The procedure and experimental system that is developed at Auburn University to measure the air flow characteristics is described. Copyright © 2002 by ASME.
