The centrifugal spinning is one of the nanofiber fabrication methods. Continuous polymer jets are drawn into nanofibers by the centrifugal force. The polymer drawing in the centrifugal spinning is modeled and simulated. The simulation results tally with the measured results confirming the effectiveness of the polymer drawing model. The simulation results show that the change of the viscoelastic force is favorable to the polymer drawing and both larger rotation speeds and higher initial polymer temperatures can produce finer fibers.
