Draft:Sood Effect
Comment: Please read Triboelectric effect#Liquids and gases and read the work of Lord Kelvin and nobel laureate Philipp Lenard rather than claiming a new name for established science. Ldm1954 (talk) 11:41, 26 July 2025 (UTC)

Sood Effect is a physical phenomenon of generating electrical current or signals by passing liquids or gases flow over solid surfaces or through carbon nanotubes.[1][2] It was discovered by the Indian physicist Ajay Sood and his team in 2003.[3][4]
Description
[edit]In 2003, Indian physicist Ajay Sood and his team, through his experiments generated electrical signals by passing liquids over solids or through nanotubes. The phenomenon of the Sood Effect was first noticed when Ajay Sood was studying that how liquids applied to a carbon nanotube can direct the flow of electrons.[5]
Mechanism
[edit]The mechanism behind the phenomenon of the Sood Effect is the interplay of the Bernoulli’s principle and the Seebeck effect. According to the mechanism, pressure differences along streamlines give rise to temperature differences across the sample of the solid, then due to the temperature differences, a measured voltage is produced.[2]
The generated electrical signal depends quadratically on the Mach number M. It is also proportional to the Seebeck coefficient of the solid over which the liquid or the gases flow is passed.[2]
