The study was conducted to develop a procedure to analyse characteristics: current in the coils, velocity of the fluid and force on the piston of Magneto-Rheological (MR) fluid and its behaviour in a damper. Using COMSOL multyphysics values of force applied on the piston were obtained and compared with the values obtained by experiment of Y. K. Lau and W. H. Liao and also the values obtained by finite element analysis of Benedetto Allotta, Luca Pugi and Fabio Bartolini. It was observed that the ratio of the value obtained by Y. K. Lau and W. H. Liao to the results obtained in this study decreases as the current increases. The magnetization factor “α” to match the study result with experimental results of Y. K. Lau and W. H. Liao has been calculated as a function of current(I) as: α = 0.7858 × I-0.375.
