Co-flowing liquids in the presence of electric fields

ORAL

Abstract

We apply electric fields to a liquid that is extruded through a capillary tip in the presence of a surrounding co-flowing liquid and induce formation of a jet that ultimately breaks into drops. We will present some results related to this experiment, which can lead to a better and extended control of the drop sizes.
