Abstract :
The results of experimental investigations of multistage EHD pump with latticed electrodes are presented. The dependencies of flow rate, head and efficiency on difference of potentials between electrodes and interelectrode gap distance for pumps with various number of stages are obtained. The influence of breakdown in interelectrode gap on EHD pump characteristics is studied
