MIDSEM PPT-Vidushee
MIDSEM PPT-Vidushee
● The spinneret nozzle is represented by a single mass-less point of charge ¯q fixed at x = 0 (nozzle
bead).
● The starting jet bead has an initial velocity s along the x axis equal to the bulk fluid velocity in the
syringe needle.
● All the quantities are stored in dimensionless units.
● First order accurate euler scheme and second, fourth order accurate Runge-Kutta schemes are
used to integrate.
