The operation of an electrohydrodynamic (EHD) power operator with both a single and a two-fluid ejector is studied. The single fluid is water while the two-fluid is a mercury/hydrogen combination. A complete thermodynamic analysis including compressibility and various estimates of losses is presented. The results confirm the fact that the electrical breakdown limitation is severe even at higher pressures. Furthermore, the single fluid is incapable of operating with any reasonable efficiencies even if the breakdown limitation is alleviated. The two fluid combination shows some promise provided that the breakdown strength can be increased by a factor of about five at the operating pressures.
