Electroosmotic Pump in Power Electronics Cooling Systems

The paper is devoted to the study of an electroosmotic pump in power electronics cooling systems. The use of an electroosmotic pump in cooling systems will increase the reliability of the cooling system due to the absence of movable elements subject to mechanical wear, and an increase in the efficiency of the electroosmotic pump is also expected compared with electromechanical pumps by reducing the chain of conversion of electrical energy into the energy of movement of the coolant. An overview of the state of research on electric osmosis in capillary structures and methods for modeling electroosmotic flow are presented. Publications on implemented electroosmotic pumps used in cooling systems are considered.
