Numerical Simulation of Electrohydrodynamic (EHD) Atomization in the Cone-Jet Mode

Abstract:

Electrohydrodynamic (EHD) has been applied in many areas, such as EHD atomization, EHD enhanced heat transfer, EHD pump, electrospray nanotechnology, etc. EHD atomization is a promising materials deposition technique as it allows uniform and regular deposition, and offers a range of other advantages, such as low cost compared with other current techniques, easy set-up, high deposition rate, and ambient temperature. Simulation is carried out using ANSYS FLUENT system. The approach in this work was to simultaneously solve the coupled (EHD) and electrostatic equations. The fields of velocities and pressure, as well as electric characteristics of EHD flows, are calculated. The model does not include a droplet break-up model.
