Changing "extremely fine particles" to "extremely fine conductive particles" for clarification. -jskrzypek@gmail.com
The cite "Tao, R.; Huang, K.; Tang, H.; Bell, D (2008). "Electrorheology leads to Efficient Combustion". Energy & Fuels 22 (6): 3785-3788." has fallen into serious scrutiny of its methods, claims, and results. http://arrow.utias.utoronto.ca/~ogulder/Z_Energy&Fuels2009comb_eff.pdf Also the company funding this research has been investigated for selling dubious products in the past. Therefore I am removing this cite and text the refers to it until independent conformation using acceptable standards and practices or a response to the charges leveled is accepted for publication in Energy and Fuels.

parallel and perpendicular electrodes
[edit]parallel and perpendicular to what? Aarghdvaark (talk) 11:18, 19 April 2010 (UTC)
The referenced study is useful for readers to learn about, but this paragraph may be misrepresenting the findings of the paper. The authors do not appear to take flow geometry into account when analyzing the results, which means that the perpendicular, alternating, partially interlocking "teeth" of the electrodes may not be the significant take-away, so much as the way in which the fluid behaves under viscosity changes in this geometry.
