A ferrofluid power generator with micro vortex generator is disclosed, which is capable of generating an induced current by enabling a ferrofluid having a plurality of magnetic particles to flow in a closed circuit, the device comprising a vortex generator and a induced current unit. The vortex generator further comprises a first inlet, a first outlet and a plurality of cavities, which is capable of accelerating the rotation speed of the magnetic particles by virtue of employing the plural cavities to enable the magnetic particles to rotate while the ferrofluid passing through the plural cavities. The induced current unit is substantially a tube having a second inlet and a second outlet, where the second inlet is coupled to the first outlet of the vortex generator for accepting the ferrofluid with rotating magnetic particles to flow therein and through so as to induce a change of magnetic flux to occur and generate an induced current accordingly.
