Abstract
This paper presents the results of numerical simulation for an electrostatic levitation device. An algorithm, based on the Boundary and Finite Element Methods, and the Method of Characteristics, was employed to predict the electric field. The FLUENT software was used to calculate the airflow. Detailed distributions of different parameters have been presented. The results seem to confirm the feasibility of the concept of electrostatic levitating unit.
