Numerical approach to high-throughput of nanofibers by a modified bubble-electrospinning
Jing Yin, Yi Wang, Lan Xu
Abstract
Nanofibers were prepared in large quantities using a modified bubble-electro-spinning, where the distribution of electric field played an important role, and its distribution was studied numerically using 3-D Maxwell equation and verified experimentally. The results showed the increase of electric field strength could decrease the nanofiber diameter and enhance the nanofiber production.
