Silicone-based Magnetorheological Fluids (MRFs) were prepared with 10% volume fraction of carbonyl iron powder. Rheometer Physica MCR 301 was used to test the rheological performances of MRFs.The experimental results show Bingham model and Casson model could well describe rheological behaviors of MRFs. Shear stress of MRFs increases but apparent viscosity is significantly decreased and tends to be stable with the increase of shear rate in the presence of magnetic field. The results also show that MRFs are shear thinning fluids. The dependence of shear stress on magnetic field was tested under the condition of constant shear rate and increasing magnetic field, shear stress of MRFs increases remarkably.

Viscosity Changes

Abstract Complex fluids exhibit time-dependent changes in viscosity that have been ascribed to both thixotropy and aging. However, there is no consensus for which phenomenon is the origin of which changes. A novel thixotropic model is defined that incorporates aging. Conditions under which viscosity changes are due to thixotropy and aging are unambiguously defined. Viscosity changes in a complex fluid during a period of rest after destructuring exhibit a bifurcation at a critical volume fraction ϕc2. For volume fractions less than ϕc2 the viscosity remains finite in the limit t →∞. For volume fractions above critical the viscosity grows without limit, so aging occurs at rest. At constant shear rate there is no bifurcation, whereas under constant shear stress the model predicts a new bifurcation in the viscosity at a critical stress σB, identical to the yield stress σy observed under steady conditions. The divergence of the viscosity for σ≤σB is best defined as aging. However, for σ > σB, where the viscosity remains finite, it seems preferable to use the concepts of restructuring and destructuring, rather than aging and rejuvenation. Nevertheless, when a stress σA(≤σB) is applied during aging, slower aging is predicted and discussed as true rejuvenation. Plastic behaviour is predicted under steady conditions when σ > σB. The Herschel-Bulkley model fits the flow curve for stresses close to σB, whereas the Bingham model gives a better fit for σ >> σB. Finally, the model’s predictions are shown to be consistent with experimental data from the literature for the transient behaviour of laponite gels.

Some functional fluids that respond to both magnetic and electric fields have been prepared and their characteristics are described. In this study, an electro-magnetorheological fluid (EMRF) dispersing zeolite particles containing metallic iron by reducing precipitated magnetite has been investigated. When the viscosity is measured by cone plate viscometer and cylindrical viscometer, electric and magnetic fields are applied both between cone and plate or two cylinders. In case of cone plate, the shear stress at constant shear rate increased with the increase of both magnetic field and electric field. On the other hand when the viscosity is measured by cylindrical viscometer, the shear stress at constant shear rate increased with the increase of electric field, however, the increase rate of shear stress by magnetic field is very small. In this case the magnetic field direction is perpendicular to electric field. The EMRF has typical characteristics to respond with magnetic and electric field. The shear stress of EMRF in electric field is stronger than that of magnetic field. Additionally, the inflection and peak point in the shear rate-shear stress curve are appeared and the behaviors of the clusters in the electric field are observed. The experimental results suggested that the fluid viscosity (shear stress/shear rate) is affected by the arrangement of clusters parallel or perpendicular to the direction of the EMRF flow.

AbstractThe rheological characterization of concentrated suspensions is complicated by the heterogeneous nature of their flow. In this contribution, the shear viscosity and wall slip velocity are quantified for highly concentrated suspensions (solid volume fractions of 0.55–0.60, D4,3 ~ 5 µm). The shear viscosity was determined using a high-pressure capillary rheometer equipped with a 3D-printed die that has a grooved surface of the internal flow channel. The wall slip velocity was then calculated from the difference between the apparent shear rates through a rough and smooth die, at identical wall shear stress. The influence of liquid phase rheology on the wall slip velocity was investigated by using different thickeners, resulting in different degrees of shear rate dependency, i.e. the flow indices varied between 0.20 and 1.00. The wall slip velocity scaled with the flow index of the liquid phase at a solid volume fraction of 0.60 and showed increasingly large deviations with decreasing solid volume fraction. It is hypothesized that these deviations are related to shear-induced migration of solids and macromolecules due to the large shear stress and shear rate gradients.

This work presents an experimental study of the effect of a magnetic field on laminar forced convection of a ferrofluid flowing in a tube filled with permeable material. The walls of the tube are subjected to a uniform heat flux and the permeable bed consists of uniform spheres of 3-mm diameter. The ferrofluid synthesis is based on reacting iron (II) and iron (III) in an aqueous ammonia solution to form magnetite, Fe3O4. The magnetite is mixed with aqueous tetra methyl ammonium hydroxide, (CH3)4NOH, solution. The dependency of the pressure drop on the volume fraction, and comparison of the pressure drop and the temperature distribution of the tube wall is studied. Also comparison of the wall temperature distribution, convection heat transfer coefficient and the Nusselt numbers of ferrofluids with different volume fractions is investigated for various Reynolds numbers (147 < Re < 205 ). It is observed that the heat transfer is enhanced by using a porous media, increasing the volume fraction had a similar effect. The pressure coefficient decreases for higher Reynolds number. The effect of magnetic field in four strategies, named modes, on ferrofluid flow through the porous media is presented.

Microwave Reflection

Owing to its unique properties and wide engineering applications, magnetorheological fluids (MRF) has become a hot study area in the field of smart materials. In this paper experimental study of the microwave reflection behavior in MRF was carried out. The results indicated that at the same frequency the microwave reflectivity of MRF decreased with the increasing of magnetic field strength; and with the particle concentration increasing, microwave reflectivity first increased, then decreased, there is a critical concentration of 15%. Under the same magnetic field, with the increasing of microwave frequency, it first decreased, there is a lowest point at 9.2GHz, and then it increased. Usually, it is considered that the change of internal structure of MRF under external magnetic field is the main reason for the regulation behavior of microwave reflectivity.

Main Influence

With the purpose of studying the main influence on the cylinder-typed magneto-rheological fluid (MRF) clutch, the relationship between the output of shear stress and its affecting factors is presented in this paper; through theoretical derivation from the Bingham Model and the cylinder-typed shear model, the stress born by the MRF in the clutch is analysed, and the affecting factors on the clutch is also simulated and verified through experiments. The study shows that as the magnetic field strengthens, the shear stress of the cylinder-typed MRF clutch grows linearly, with proportionality constant at 0.162; the increase of shear rate, relevant to the magnetic field strength, makes little difference to the torque output, with proportionality constant at 0.00026B. The results indicate that mechanical-electrical integration of clutch devices can be achieved through the control of magnetic field output of the electromagnet.

The plastic deformation kinetics of 95.5Sn4Cu0.5Ag solder joints were determined in monotonic loading shear over the temperature range of 25°–150°C using three types of tests: (a) constant shear rate, (b) constant shear stress (creep), and (c) differential tests (changes in shear rate or temperature during an otherwise isothermal constant shear rate test). The deformation kinetics were evaluated in terms of the Dorn high temperature plastic deformation equation γ˙p=A(μb/kT)D(b/d)P(τ/μ)n where γ˙p is the shear rate, μ the shear modulus, b the Burgers vector, D the appropriate diffusion coefficient, d the grain size and τ the shear stress. A, p, and n are constants whose values depend on the rate controlling mechanism. It was found that n increased with stress from ~4 at 2 MPa to ~20 at 25 MPa, relatively independent of temperature. The activation ΔH was determined to be 21.1 ± 2 kcal/mole. The constant A, however, decreased with temperature from a value of ~1018 at 25°C to ~1010 at 150°C. The values of n and ΔH suggest that dislocation glide and climb is the rate controlling mechanism and hence that p ≈ 0. It is speculated that the large decrease in A with temperature may be the result of an effect on the microstructure.

Stress Flow

By the method of capillary viscosimetry, the melt flow curves of the molded phenolic resin and its compositions with lubricant, plasticizer and their mixture were obtained. It was shown that the size (diameter) of the capillary channel influences the dependence of the effective shear rate on the shear stress (flow curves) of the studied compositions. Such rheological behavior of the compositions during flow is associated with the effect of sliding along the surface of the capillary wall. According to the Mooney method, the dependences of the effective shear rate at given values of shear stress on the reciprocal of the capillary radius are plotted. The function of the slip velocity on the shear stress on the capillary wall is characterized in terms of the slip coefficient, which relates the shear stress on the capillary wall to the velocity of the composition along it. For the studied compositions, the total flow through the capillary was divided into volume fractions, one of which is associated with a shear flow; the other is determined by the slip effect. It has been shown that the introduction of both a lubricant and a plasticizer into the composition leads to an increase in the fluidity of the compositions. At the same time, adding of lubricant increases the volume fraction of the slip flow. The greatest effect of increasing the fluidity of the composition gives the use of complex modifying additives containing both lubricant and plasticizer.

Proposed Model

To predict the shear stress of magnetorheological fluids (MRFs) under magnetic field and shear flows, a meso-microscale shear model is proposed based on the entire course of particle aggregates and chains. For this purpose, a systematic study on the microstructure evolution and rheological properties of MRFs is conducted by using molecular dynamics simulations. An efficient chain identification technique is introduced to count the number of particle chains within the suspension system. From the perspective of particle-level simulations, the microstructured behavior of MRFs involving particle aggregation and internal structure evolution of magnetorheological suspensions are addressed. Shear properties of MRFs derived by the proposed model are studied, and model verification by comparison with previous experimental data and predictions of the existing structural viscosity model is included as well. It is revealed that the proposed meso-microscale shear model exhibits satisfactory accuracy and efficiency for describing the rheological properties of MRFs. Besides, the critical factors linked with rheological properties of MRFs such as magnetic field strength, particle volume fraction and shear rate, are analyzed, further demonstrating the applicability of the proposed model in design and optimization of MRFs.

Abstract Small micellar casein particles were formed in aqueous solutions of native casein after addition of polyphosphate. These so-called submicelles aggregated and gelled with a rate that increased with increasing temperature. The evolution of the viscosity during this process was determined at constant shear rate or shear stress. When applying a small shear stress the viscosity increased strongly until the shear rate became immeasurably slow, but when the applied shear stress exceeded a critical value (σc) the aggregates broke up and the viscosity reached a maximum. At longer times the viscosity decreased rapidly at first, followed by a very slow decrease. σc was independent of the shear rate and heating temperature, but increased strongly with increasing casein concentration. At constant shear rate the stress remained close to σc, but fluctuated irregularly. After cessation of shear flow, gels were formed rapidly. Oscillation shear measurements for σ > σc showed a strongly non-linear response at the time of maximum viscosity.
