Two experimental methods, a dielectric spectroscopic technique and a channel flow technique, have been found to provide reasonable estimates of an ER fluid's response time. The dielectric data obtained for an ER fluid was adequately modeled using a well established Cole-Cole relationship for a symmetric distribution of relaxation times. A calculation of the particle's conductivity in the ER fluid also was found to be possible using the measured dielectric data. The response time obtained with the channel flow technique was in good agreement with the measured response time of a working ER fluid device.
