Electrohydrodynamics (EHD) Research

Abstract

This report contains further considerations of the slip parameter for unsteady flow. Several important gas /particle combinations are represented and conclusions regarding electrical efficiency are given. Also, a computer study which solves the combined Laplace/Poisson equations for geometries representing the EHD channel is included. This program is used to predict the effect of voltage- scheduling electrodes, and the predictions are checked out experimentally.
