ON SURFACE TENSION OF A BUBBLE UNDER PRESENCE OF ELECTROSTATIC FORCE

ABSTRACT
The surface tension of a bubble is described by Young-Laplace equation, which becomes, however, invalid under the presence of electrostatic force, and a modified one is obtained, which can be widely applied for Bubbfil spinning process.
KEYWORDS
