The flow focusing geometry was first introduced in an axi-s5mimetric system by Ganan-Calvo [22]. Later, the same concept was succesfiilly used in a - typical to current microfluidic techniques - planar chip by Anna et al. 

New nebulizer designs that are only just emerging whose nebulized aerosol applications have not yet been fully defined—e.g., Touch-Spray, Microjet, and Ganan-Calvo technology.

Flow rate is the main parameter affecting the size and morphology of particles. Several studies have shown that the particle diameter can be controlled by flow rate and electrical conductivity. Ganan-Calvo proposed a theoretical model that reasonably agrees with the experimental results ... 

The type of solvent affects EHDA in response to its surface tension, electrical conductivity, and boiling point or vapor pressure. The Ganan-Calvo equation (Equation 22.2) shows that increasing the surface tension or conductivity of the solvent decreases the diameter of the particle. Xie et al. used PCL solution in three solvents, dichloromethane (DCM), acetonitrile (ACN), and tetrahydrofuran (THE). These liquids have similar surface tensions, but the conductivity of ACN is greater by about two orders of magnitude. They produced particles of...
