Abstract
An experimental and theoretical study is made of the influence of a transverse electric field on thermogravitational flow in a vertical capacitor filled with a barely conducting liquid. The boundaries of the capacitor are maintained at different temperatures. In the calculations it is assumed that the main contribution to ionization of the liquid, which is electrically neutral in the absence of the field, is made by the buildup of uncompensated charge accompanying the flow of electric current through a liquid having a nonuniform conductivity distribution. The latter is induced by the temperature gradient. This system is simulated experimentally by using a suitable working liquid-electrode material system.
