A jet flow generation device includes: a discharge electrode; a reference electrode that is disposed away from the discharge electrode; a power supply circuit that generates an output voltage to control a potential difference between the discharge electrode and the reference electrode; a controller that switches the output voltage of the power supply circuit between a first voltage that does not induce corona discharge between the discharge electrode and the reference electrode and a second voltage that induces corona discharge between the discharge electrode and the reference electrode; and a case housing at least the reference electrode has an injection port that injects an ion wind of ions generated by the corona discharge.
