The paper deals with the analysis of the equipment for electrospinning from the free layer using wire spinneret. Simulations of the electrostatic field were performed by using the finite element method. Main part of simulations is focused on analyzing the influence of shape of wire on the distribution of electric field around the wire. The influence of design dimensions of spinning machine was observed as well. Next part of simulations deals with influence of the electric voltages among wire, collector and background. According to the simulations the experiments were done. Main part of the experiments was focused on measurement of critical electric voltages. The conclusion compares simulations to results of experiments.
