AB - The induced-charge elecetroosmosis around conducting/Janus cylinder with  arbitrary Debye thickness is studied numerically, when an direct current weak  electric filed is suddenly applied in a confined microchannel. It’s found  that there are four large circulations around the conducting cylinder, and  the total flux in the microchannel is zero; there are two smaller  circulations around the Janus cylinder, and they are compressed to wall. A  bulk flux, which has a parabolic relation with the applied electric field, is  also predicted.
