Simulation on fiber random arrangement in the yarn has been studied in our previous research, where only fiber length distribution was considered. In this study, fiber fineness distribution was also taken into account in order to study the joint effect of fiber length and fineness distribution on fiber arrangement in the yarn. Eight-millimeter term limit irregularity of simulated yarn can be re-expressed by calculating the irregularity of the total weight of fibers within each yarn subsection. It can be seen from the results that the calculated irregularities considering fiber fineness distribution are closer to tested values compared with those without considering fiber fineness distribution. Besides, when the variance of fiber fineness gets greater, the difference between the calculated values with and without considering fiber fineness distribution becomes more obvious. For fiber length, the effect of average fiber length on yarn limit irregularity is very little, while its distribution has no significant effect on yarn limit irregularity. The improved simulation on fiber random arrangement in the yarn is more reasonable and can be applied for the prediction of yarn qualities.
