Don't know the name of this effect but it's interesting.
Is there the same oil movement within your power supply?
Are the electrodes changing colour or dissolving.
maybe leave it running see if it electroplates anything.

no the electrodes dont change under oil. and there is only movment between a sharp point and a blunt shape. But no effect within the oil tank.

So i guess this is the Biefeld–Brown effect ion wind effect.

Yep, lots of different names for the same thing... electrohydrodynamic thruster is another.
