本實驗主要是討論利用電液動力學(electrohydrodynamics, EHD)之技術來提升散熱能力。其原理為在一排針狀電極上通高壓電，使電極附近的空氣解離進而產生離子風，以達到增強散熱能力之目的。在本實驗中設計雙級式的EHD幫浦來提升單級式幫浦的平均風量及風速。希望藉由再串接一排針狀電極的方式，跟單級時進行平均風速和風量的比較觀察其提升效果如何。透過實驗結果可知，在單級幫浦時網子的選擇是非常重要的，網子過密和過疏對幫浦平均風速都是不太好的。且在單級幫浦下以在七根電極、間距10mm和接地網為12目線徑0.35時平均風速最大可達1.2487(m/s)。在雙級幫浦時，採用四種不同電極排列和間距的改變來觀察提升的效果。由實驗結果知在間距10mm平均速度和風量方面以七-五雙級>五-七雙級>七-七雙級>五-五雙級，在間距20mm七-五雙級>五-七雙級約等於七-七雙級>五-五雙級，在間距30mm七-五雙級>五-七雙級>七-七雙級約等於五-五雙級，而整體而言是在間距20mm下提升效果最好。較好的電極排列為七-五雙級與五-七電極和前級電極遮蔽效果有關。
