本文探討行波式交流電電滲流(Traveling Wave Electro- osmosis Flow)的抽水能力。過去TWEO相關的研究和模擬著重在四周密閉流道內，觀察流體流動的現象，本文研究則為當流道有流體流進、流出時，TWEO抽水的能力，較符合實際的應用。本文引用前人所提出的double layer和擴散層電容比非定值的結論，並基於前人發現TWEO在流體發生逆流時，因為渦流的抵銷導致抽水的效能減弱的原因，本文選定有較好抽水能力，即為normal flow發生時的條件下，計算流道高度、流量和TWEO抽水能力的關係，並建立了新的參數Lsp(self-pumping length)來呈現本文研究的結果，其定義為TWEO在該流量和流道高度下，可以推動流體的距離。
