Electrostatic instability of the surface of a volume charged jet of dielectric liquid moving relative to the surrounding medium

详细

The laws of implementation of electrostatic instability of the surface of a cylindrical volume charged jet of an ideal incompressible dielectric liquid moving relative to the ideal incompressible dielectric medium and the stability of bending-deformation capillary waves developed on the surface are investigated analytically. It is found that there are thresholds for the critical conditions of implementation of the instability with respect to the jet velocity relative to the medium (Weber number) and with respect to the electric space charge (relative to the ratio of the electrostatic pressure on the jet surface to the Laplace pressure). The critical analytic dependence between these dimensionless parameters is found.
