Abstract
With the electric field on, heat transfer turns out to be only weakly influenced by the heat flux and the flow rate. The heat exchange reveals to be highly enhanced by this technique and can be modulated by varying the applied voltage. In all cases, the heat transfer improvement is accompanied by a slight increase in pressure drop through the test section and a negligible Joule heating.
