Abstract
A cooling module includes an electroosmotic pump. The electroosmotic pump includes a first electrode which is permeable to a cooling fluid, a second electrode which is located with an interval from the first electrode and is permeable to the fluid, and a dielectric layer which is located between the first electrode and the second electrode and includes a microchannel which is permeable to the fluid. The first electrode and the second electrode have different polarities.
