  • © 2021 The Author(s)In this article, Buckingham's ¿-theorem is applied to model electrospinning and electrospraying to find the fiber or particle diameter as a function of Taylor's cone height, solution's electrical conductivity, viscosity, surface tension, operating flow rate, and electric field intensity. The derived expressions elucidate how the fiber or particles diameter varies as a function of the process parameters and liquid properties.
