Electrohydrodynamic generation
Charge carried by a flowing dielectric fluid is transported against an electric field, converting the fluid's kinetic energy directly into electrical work at a collector.

Relations
- a dielectric fluid carrying injected charge is driven by the flow against an electric field to a collector electrode
- monopolar charge injected into a dielectric liquid (n-hexane in the 1977 generator) is carried by the flow against the field to a collector
Matrix context
D = disequilibrium row · C = coupling family column. A cell reads the state of the atlas for that pair.
