A THERMO-ELECTRO-HYDRODYNAMIC MODEL FOR VIBRATION-ELECTROSPINNING PROCESS

Abstract

In this paper, a thermo-electro-hydrodynamic model of the vibration- electrospinning process is first established. The model can offer in-depth insight into physical understanding of many complex phenomena which can not be fully explained experimentally. It is a powerful tool to controlling over physical characters.
