An approach for modeling and simulation of multifilament melt spinning of poly(ethylene terephthalate) fibers is presented. It is shown that the quench conditions seen by the filaments within a bundle are not identical but differ for different rows of filaments. This, in turn, affects the spun fiber properties and introduces a degree of variability in the properties. The proposed approach allows determination of both the average properties and their variability for a given set of spinning conditions, spinneret geometry, and quench details.
