Abstract :
A theoretical study of the efficiency of an EHD pump in a closed loop system is presented. The working section consists of two parallel net-electrodes. The two-dimensional problem with a model of unipolar injection conductivity is considered. The problem is solved by analytical and numerical methods. It is shown that the efficiency can reach about 80%
