Abstract: More attentions have been paid to Magnetorheological fluid, which is
a kind of new functional materials. An elegant device is designed for the test
of the mechanical properties of Magnetorheological fluid, and the mechanical
properties of ten samples of Magnetorheological fluid are tested with the
device. In the experimental investigation, we choose ten samples of
Magnetorheological fluid to analyze and obtain the material parameters with the
testing device. The effects of the typical influencing factors, such as
magnetic induction intensity, ferromagnetic particle volume fraction, base
solutions, temperature, shear strain rate, response time, sedimentation
stability, yield shear stress, viscosity and zero-field viscosity, etc., are
investigated. This work proves that Magnetorheological fluid is reliable and
practical through experimental results. We welcome warmly the relevant experts
and scholars to exchange and guide further.
