Abstract
A basic research is being carried out on transport of liquid drop in electrostatic traveling field. A liquid drop conveyor consisting of parallel electrodes was constructed and four-phase traveling electrostatic wave was applied to the electrodes to transport liquid drop on the conveyer. The following were clarified by the experiment: (1) The liquid drop which straddled less than three electrode array could transport in the traveling wave field. (2) The mode of liquid transport was classified into two; synchronous region that liquid drop motion was synchronized with the wave and delayed region.
