Electrohydrodynamic atomization [EHDA] of liquids is a transport phenomenon, which
describes the motion of the liquids subjected to electric field. The atomization occurs from a
steady conical meniscus called Taylor cone that is the result of the balance of the electrical
normal stress and the surface tension. As a consequence of the electric field the surface
charged in the Taylor cone is accelerated towards the cone apex. Subsequently, due to this
acceleration a jet with a high charge density is formed at the cone apex. Finally, the jet …
