The electric field plays a very important role in the electrospinning process, which needs to be seriously considered in the electrospinning configuration developing. High voltage involved in electrospinning process leads to difficulty in measuring the electric field. Numerical simulation is used to design the electric field, and experiments are carried out to validate the spinneret and collector designs.The software COMSOL Multiphysics® provides a numerical technique to simulate the electric field using the finite element method (FEM). The electric field intensity and distribution can be visualized using the FEM calculation with the practical dimensions and material properties of the electrospinning setup.
