Our involvement with active heat transfer augmentation techniques (particularly the EHD method) for the past twelve years has resulted in a team of faculty members, graduate students, and research engineers and scientists with diverse expertise and experience in Electrohydrodynamics, heat transfer, and design/instrumentation. In recent years our group has introduced innovative electrode designs and methodologies, which have lead to the reduction of an order of magnitude in the required voltage for certain EHD applications. The group has filed for several patents, some of which have been already issued. EHD is now receiving substantial attention from the international technical community. It is now realistic to envision smart, variable-capacity heat exchangers that may soon be introduced in commercial products.
