A novel semi-flexible coaxial nozzle based on fluid dynamics effects and its self-centering performance study [PDF]
Coaxial nozzles are widely used to produce fibers with core–shell structures. However, conventional coaxial nozzles cannot adjust the coaxiality of the inner and outer needles in real-time during the fiber production process, resulting in uneven fiber ...
