Abstract

The low production rate of electrospinning process may limit the industrial use of single needle system. Multiple needles can be used to improve the throughput. But the jets bend outward because adjacent electric fields interfere with one another. In this paper, auxiliary electrode was used to release electric field interference. Effect of auxiliary electrode on electric field interference was analyzed by electromagnetic analysis software. The influence of needle distance on electric field force of jet’s stability section was also investigated. The results indicate that jet’s y and z direction electric field force decreases along with the increase of distance between needles. When distance between needles is 30 mm, the influence of electric field is smaller and jet’s elongation greater.
