  We use numerical simulations of the time evolution of global textures to
investigate the relationship between ordering dynamics and energy density in an
expanding universe. Events in which individual textures become fully wound are
rare. The energy density is dominated by the more numerous partially wound
configurations, with median topological charge alpha ~ 0.44. This verifies the
recent supposition (Borrill et al. 1994) that such partially wound
configurations should dominate the cosmic microwave background.
