electrohydrodynamics (ehd) is the study of the dynamics of electrically charged fluids. more specifically, it is the study of the motions of ionized particles or molecules and how their interactions with electric fields affect the surrounding fluid.

with more research, ehd has the potential to start entering the thermal management scene of the electronics industry because of its ability to cool heatsinks that do not have a system flow available, while staying completely quiet. there are various ways to apply ehd to enhance heat transfer.

utilizing electrostatic force is one of the most promising methods among various active techniques because of its several advantages.  this engineering article explores this topic and its application.
