Abstract:

Magneto rheological (MR) fluids have been investigated to be of much importance due to their magneto rheological dependant properties. Magneto Rheological is a branch of rheology that deals with the flow and deformation of the materials under an applied magnetic field. These types of materials change their rheological properties under the application of magnetic field applied and turn from liquid to solid in just few seconds. MR fluid is the colloidal suspension of micron sized, polarizable magnetic particles (iron metal particle) in the magnetically neutral carrier fluid (low viscosity paraffin oil / silicon oil) whose viscosity can be varied from liquid to semisolid with the help of magnetic field. Magneto rheological (MR) fluid technology has been proven for many industrial applications like shock absorbers, actuators, seat dampers, etc. This paper presents basic properties, preparation, testing and implementation of MR fluid in conventional damper.
