Abstract
A high accuracy online flow rate measurement system has been used to determine the current flow rate scaling relationships for solutions of organic solvents doped with sodium iodide and for the ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methyl imidazolium tetrafluoroborate over a range of conductivities from 0.0025−1.3S∕m. The current flow rate trends for these solutions were found to exhibit a power law relationship similar to that described by previous researchers, where I (the electrospray current) is proportional to Q (the volumetric flow rate) to some power n. However, the exponent n of the current flow rate trends was found to differ from the theoretical predictions reported in the literature. A study including data from literature revealed the exponent of the current flow rate trends to be sensitive to the molar conductivity of the sprayed solution.
