Abstract
An electrospray is widely used in the industry due to uniform and continuous droplet generation. Most of the studies on the electrospray modes are conducted in the cone jet mode. The goal of this study is to confirm the spray patterns for each mode of the electrospray by setting various conditions, such as nozzle to substrate, nozzle diameters, fluid properties (Viscosity and Conductivity), and flow rate. As a result, 7 modes were observed by the applied voltage and flow rate. It was confirmed that the smallest droplet size was produced in the cone jet mode and working fluid V (High Conductivity).
