Ferrofluids have been the subject of great interest in engineering because of their unique flow characteristics under magnetic fields (Rosensweig, 1987). However, there are limited experiments which show the potential of ferrofluids to undergo controlled changes in thermal conductivity (Philip et al., 2008) under magnetic fields. The purpose of this experiment is to investigate thermal transport in ferrofluids. A test apparatus was designed and the thermal resistance of a commercially available ferromagnetic fluid within a test cell was measured as a function of the applied magnetic field.

The inhomogeneous morphology of magnetic fluid may appear in the presence of an external magnetic field, which shows the structure controllability of magnetic fluid and will lead to anisotropic thermal transport inside the magnetic fluid. Based on the microstructure of magnetic fluid and considering the effect of nanolayer, a model for the thermal conductivity of the magnetic fluid has been developed. The anisotropic thermal transport inside the magnetic fluid is investigated by the present method. The results show that in the presence of an external magnetic field the particles form chainlike clusters along the magnetic field direction, which leads to an increment in the thermal conductivity along the field direction and little change in the thermal conductivity perpendicular to the magnetic field direction. The thermal conductivity of magnetic fluid presents an anisotropic feature. With the increase of the magnetic field strength the chainlike clusters in the magnetic fluid becomes more obvious and the anisotropic feature of heat conduction in the fluids becomes more evident. Comparisons show that the results predicted by the present method are well coincident with the experimental data.

The thermal conductivity of a quasiparticle (QP) system described by a relativistic four-fermion interaction model in the presence of an external magnetic field is calculated. It is shown that, for narrow widths of quasiparticles, the thermal conductivity, as a function of the applied magnetic field, exhibits a kink behavior at a critical field B c ~ T2. The kink is due to the opening of a gap in the QP spectrum at a critical magnetic field B c and to the enhancement of the transitions between the zeroth and first Landau levels. Possible applications of the results are discussed.
