Abstract
The problem of charging the continuous component of a liquid jet in a longitudinal electrostatic field was formulated and solved. The total balance of electric current in the jet, including the convective and o hmic components, is considered with allowance for the effect of a shie lding of the external electric field by the free surface charge. The e xperimental plots of the electric current versus the bulk liquid flow rate and strength of the electric field are determined and are shown t o exhibit good agreement with the calculated results.
