Electrohydraulic power conversion in planar nanochannels.
We explore mechanisms for flow generation in water-filled nanochannels, employing the coupling between translational and rotational momentum. Using a generalized Navier-Stokes equation that includes dipolar polarization and relaxation, we show that static electric fields do not induce fluid flow in...
