Abstract

We have shown experimentally that the application of an electric field to an air stream blowing over a corona point has the additional effect of increasing the air velocity. This result is derived from the interaction of two factors. We have developed a model of the phenomenon which is based on electrostatic and hydrodynamic equations. The model provides an equation which relates the additional air velocity to the basic corona discharge parameters. The resulting function agrees with the experimental results.
