Ionic wind, also known as electrohydrodynamic (EHD) airflow, is an innovative technology that generates airflow using only an electric field without any moving mechanical parts.
By applying a high DC voltage between two electrodes, air molecules become ionized and accelerate toward the opposite electrode. As they collide with neutral air molecules, they create a continuous airflow.
This principle opens the door to a wide range of applications, including:
• Silent cooling
• Compact, maintenance-free air circulation systems
• Electroaerodynamic propulsion for lightweight aircraft and drones
To achieve stable and efficient operation, ionic wind systems require a high-voltage DC power supply capable of delivering:
• Stable output voltage over several kilovolts to tens of kilovolts
• Fast rise time
• High reliability and robustness
• Excellent voltage regulation for consistent ionization
With decades of experience supplying HV DC power supplies for plasma and ionization applications, Technix provides reliable solutions ideally suited for ionic wind technologies, whether for electronic cooling, air movement or advanced propulsion research.
As ionic wind applications continue to evolve, reliable high-voltage power remains a key enabler of their performance. ⚡
