Full text | Abstract: One of the most important factors that affect the cost of a woven fabric is the energy cost. In this study, general information about the energy types and levels that are used during woven fabric production has been given, and an energy analysis of a chosen weaving mill has been conducted. A new theoretical approach has been developed for determining the specific energy consumption of selected woven fabric. The energy consumption of a particular woven fabric produced in the chosen weaving mill has been calculated using the equations given, and the results obtained have been compared with data given in literature. |
