Modeling and analysis of electrohydrodynamic printing under various pulsed voltage waveforms

Yin Guan et al.

Summary: In this study, a numerical investigation of Electrohydrodynamic (EHD) printing under six unconventional pulsed voltage waveforms was conducted, and the influences of upward/downward voltage time and waveform shape on liquid behaviors and printing outcomes were investigated. The results show that the upward voltage waveforms only alter the duration of Taylor cone formation with little impact on the printing process and deposited droplet volume. However, the downward voltage waveforms have a significant influence on liquid behaviors, with the trapezoidal down waveform resulting in the most stable printing processes. This study provides valuable insights into the understanding of the complex mechanisms in EHD printing.

Numerical investigation of air cushioning in the impact of micro-droplet under electrostatic fields

Yu Tian et al.

Summary: In this study, the air cushioning phenomena in micro-sized droplets impacting on a solid surface were numerically investigated. It was found that the critical impact speed for bouncing on the air cushion increases as the droplet radius decreases, while the Weber number remains within a narrow range of 1 to 4. The scaling law of the critical impact speed for bouncing was derived by balancing the lubrication pressure of the air cushion with the capillary pressure and droplet inertia. Additionally, it was discovered that the impact mode can transform from bouncing to wetting with an electric field.

Yin Guan et al.

Summary: This study numerically investigates the mechanism of high-frequency pulsating electrohydrodynamic jet at low electric Bond numbers. By analyzing parameters such as voltage distribution, electric charge density, and flow field, the influences of factors like electric voltage, nozzle-to-substrate distance, and liquid surface tension coefficient on the dynamic behaviors and durations of three jetting stages are revealed. Additionally, the relative significance of electric force to surface tension force and the impacts of electric Bond number on the jetting process are also examined.

Air entrapment of a neutral drop impacting onto a flat solid surface in electric fields

Yu Tian et al.

Summary: In this study, it is found experimentally and numerically that the air entrapment process and initial contact state of a drop on a solid substrate can be profoundly altered by an external electric field. The electric field affects the induced electric stresses at the bottom of the drop, resulting in reduced initial contact radius and air bubble size. A critical electric field can eliminate the air bubble entrapment, providing a new method to mitigate defects in inkjet printing and droplet-based additive manufacturing.

Enhancing pulsed electrohydrodynamic printing frequency via high-order-mode ejection

Huayang Li et al.

Summary: The study reveals that the occurrence of multi-mode oscillation is determined by the damping ratio, while jetting behavior depends on the phase difference between meniscus oscillation and the electric field. High-order-mode jetting can occur around the resonant frequency of a low damping ratio system, increasing the frequency limit to approximately 2.62 times that of traditional pulsed EHD printing and providing an efficient approach to high-frequency EHD printing.

Mediation of lubricated air films using spatially periodic dielectrophoretic effect

Quoc Vo et al.

Summary: The trapping of air between liquid and solid surfaces can lead to various issues, but by splitting the thin air gap into tunnels and using dielectrophoretic force to squeeze air out, it is possible to prevent bubble entrapment in water and the splash caused by droplets impacting solid surfaces. Venting residual air trapped upon impact on a solid surface using dielectrophoretic forces to create dynamic drainage channels can ensure a smooth touchdown of droplets.
