Diseño y simulación electrostática de arreglos de capilares a kilovoltios para aplicaciones de electrospray

Abstract

In the present investigation, the design and simulation of capillary-base electrostatic systems is carried out, it is intended to innovate and encourage the application of high electric fields to research projects of the electronic career, therefore, this project once concluded, can be subdivided into other research for various areas of knowledge. Simulations of arrangements of one capillary, two capillaries, four capillaries and six capillaries were carried out, varying the distance to 0.05 inches, 1 inch and 2 inches with the objective of being able to analyze the electric field lines and variation of electric potential between the capillaries. The main finding was that, at a greater distance between the base and the capillary, the capacitance obtained decreases. Similarly, it is concluded that the capacitance obtained is not affected by the increase or decrease of the voltage applied to the capillary.
