Electrohydrodynamics—abbreviated EHD—is concerned with interactions of electric fields and free or bound (polarization) change in fluids. The electrical conductivity of such fluids may range from that of extremely good insulators (dielectrics) to that the electromagnetic part of the system is described by a quasi–static electric fields model: the dynamic currents are so small that the influence of the magnetic induction is negligible.

Notes

  1. A particle-like approach is reviewed in Arp et al. [1980]. A continuum approach, accounting for a deformable polarizable microstructure in the fluid carrier, is developed in Drouot and Maugin [1985] and Morro et al. [1985].

  3. The same results apply where the medium is incompressible and f is derivable from a potential (Felici [1969]).

  5. This would follow by applying the general procedure (used in Section 3.7) to (11.6.1), in order to find the corresponding surface force Fi which must be zero for equilibrium.
