: Experimental and simulation data suggest that a square wave signal (specifically at 0.2 Hz for certain silicone oil viscosities) proves most efficient for generating high-velocity flows.
This paper explores the mechanics and coupling characteristics of actuators, specifically focusing on the generation of electrohydrodynamic (EHD) wall jets. We analyze how charge injection, migration, and accumulation at the dielectric surface influence flow structures under various pulse signals. Using finite element methods, this study identifies optimal electrical parameters for high-velocity silicone flow, with implications for microfluidics and aerodynamic control. 1.
