An electro-conjugate fluid (ECF) is a kind of dielectric fluid which produces a flow (ECF jet) when subjected to high DC voltage. For instance, a pair of electrodes generating non-uniform electric field produces the ECF jet. The ECF jet is a promising micro fluid power source for actuators and sensors including micro motors, liquid rate gyroscope etc. In addition, it is known that some kinds of ECF produce impinging jets between bar-shaped electrodes. This study develops an impinging micro fluidics element using this impinging jet. We confirm by experiments the operation of the device and consider an optimum flow channel configuration.
