| Research Abstract |
Electro-Conjugate Fluid, ECF can directly convert electric energy into kinetic energy of the fluid without mechanical moving parts. Prototype models of high-powered and miniaturized micro fluid power module using the ECF ware fabricated and experimentally and numerically investigated. Mathematical model for numerical simulation of the ECF jet flow ware proposed and simulation code was developed. Flow visualization through the electrodes was carried out. New shape and arrangement of electrodes was proposed and fabricated to miniaturize the high-powered micro ECF pump module.
