Definitions

  • CA-A-2 216 048 there is described a single tier dryer section of a papermaking machine according to the preamble of claim 1. More specifically, in CA-A-2 216 048, the single dryer section has dryer rolls with a reversing vacuum roll positioned between each pair to transfer and wrap the dryer felt and paper web against the next dryer roll. A vacuum box is positioned between adjacent dryer rolls and over the vacuum roll to hold the web on the dryer felt by vacuum, and the dryer felt has a permeability of between 2134 and 15240 cm 3 /min/cm2 (70 and 500 cubic feet per minute per square foot).
  • the permeability of the dryer felt is at least 18288 cm 3 /min/cm 2 (600 cfm).
  • the present invention includes the employment of an open fabric or dryer felt having a high permeability. Additionally, trials on a pilot single tier BelChamp type dryer section have shown that an open fabric having a high permeability of 18288 cm 3 /min/cm 2 (600 cfm) can be used without blowing the sheet in the pocket areas.
  • the felt according to the present invention is preferably of the type having an open structure and having a permeability of 18288 cm 3 /min/cm 2 (600 cfm) while being of a lower caliper.
