TY - JOUR TI - Numerical analysis of the electrospinning process for fabrication of composite fibers AU - Ahmed Adnan AU - Xu Lan JN - Thermal Science PY - 2020 VL - 24 IS - 4 SP - 2377 EP - 2383 PT - Article AB - An electrospun composite fiber process is a multi-phase and multi-physics process. It was very difficult to study a charged jet in the electrospinning process for the fabrication of composite fibers by experiments. In this study, the liquid-solid two-phase flow in the electrospinning process for fabrication of composite fibers was researched numerically. The results showed the addition of conductive nanoparticles resulted in the increase of the jet flow velocity, and the decrease of the fiber's diameter. The CFD results corresponded well with the experimental data.
