In this configuration, two power supplies were applied simultaneously with a modulated voltage to an electrohydrodynamic (EHD) system then corona discharge parameters and EHD thrust characterization was investigated by a corona dryer mechanism. The EHD thrust experiments were performed with a pin to plate and SDBD arrangements. The results show that with the simultaneous application of two power supplies the drying rate in a drop of water as a standard sample was greatly enhanced and the drying time was reduced. Thus, the total evaporation was occurred in 1 minute in the SDBD structure with a power of 7 watts and in 1.5 minutes in pin to plate structure with a power of 2.5 watts. Eventually, it was observed that the use of mixed electric fields enhances the ionic wind, hence increases the non-thermal evaporation process significantly. Furthermore, the drying rate has grown notably In SDBD configuration.}, number={1}, journal={Journal of Theoretical and Applied Physics}, publisher={OICC Press}, author={Heidari, Amir Abbas and Seyfi, Pourya and Khademi, Ahmad and Ghomi, Hamid}, year={2023}, month={Nov.}, keywords={Corona discharge, Electrohydrodynamic (EHD), Ionic wind, Modulated voltage, Surface dielectric barrier discharge (SDBD)} }
