The Electrohydrodynamic Atomization of Liquids

Smith, David P. H.·1986·IEEE Transactions on Industry Applications

Abstract

The mechanism by which resistive liquids subjected to high electric potentials produce a filament and aerosol is still not well-understood. An experimental study of the onset parameters of this electrohydrodynamic (EHD) atomization mode is presented. Data on the effect of onset potential, capillary radius, liquid conductivity, and viscosity, together with an observed hysteresis in the current-voltage characteristics, provide the basis for a qualitative model of the phenomena presented here for the first time. The flow of liquid that produces the aerosol is understood in terms of the surface stress tensor.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
