Abstract
Abstract An improved radial quench process for filaments being extruded in the form of hollow bundles wherein the radial chimney is spaced from the spinneret and a tapered deflector extends from the spinneret downwardly in the hollow part of the bundle terminating above the chimney. Gas flow restrictors at each end of the chimney are sized to direct a portion of the inwardly flowing quench gas up the hollw part of the bundle toward the deflector which, in turn, directs the gas flow outwardly through the bundle.
