Abstract
This paper describes a liquid jet propeller (based on a focused ultrasonic beam) that is integrated with a reservoir, microchannel, and cover. The integration allows continuous supply of a liquid thin film (through surface tension) to the jet propeller, and we have obtained continuous propulsion of an atomized liquid jet.
