Electrohydrodynamic air amplifier as a new device for uniform, low-energy drying of medical washers

Résumé des résultats (Abstract) (Allemand)

The performance of a new type of fan is tested, a prototype is developed, and is integrated into a washer for medical equipment, making the convective drying step more energy-efficient and faster. Airflow is generated by corona discharge and the supply airflow rate is amplified with a factor 10+.
