    This document summarizes magnetorheological (MR) fluids, which are liquids that change their properties and can solidify when a magnetic field is applied. MR fluids consist of magnetizable particles suspended in a carrier fluid. When a magnetic field is present, the particles are polarized and form chains, causing the fluid to act like a solid. Without the field, the particles are randomly dispersed and the fluid acts like a liquid. The document discusses applications of MR fluids in vehicle suspension dampers and transmission clutches, as well as advantages like easy control and high yield stress. Disadvantages include high density/weight, high cost, and potential settling of particles over time.

    Magnetorheological Fluids
    Functions of MR Fluids
    These are liquids that change their properties
    when we apply a magnetic field to them.
    When the magnet is in place the MR Fluid
    turns into solid.
    When the magnet is removed the solid
    instantly reverts to liquid
    What is MR fluid?
    Soft magnetic material in a carrier oil.
    Silicon oil or even corn syrup is mixed with the MRF to
    prevent rust.
    Typical MR fluid contains 20-40% by volume of
    relatively pure, soft iron particles.
    Rheology or to the phenomena of flowing matter
    Is type of rheological fluids whose yield stress can
    be varied by an applied magnetic field.
    A typical MR fluid consists of micron sized
    magnetizable iron/ferrous particles suspended in a
    base fluid like silicone oil or water.
    Applications of MR Fluid
    Vehicle Suspension
    Dampers

    The MR damper has a built-


    in MR valve across which
    the MR fluid is forced. The
    piston of the MR damper
    acts as an electromagnet with
    the required number of coils
    to produce the appropriate
    magnetic field. Also the MR
    damper has a run-through
    shaft to avoid an
    accumulator.
    Cont Applications
    MR Transmission Clutches

    They are used in automotive


    power train to transmit torque
    from the engine to the
    transmission and the vehicle.
    The MR sponge clutch may be
    used to provide launch control of
    an automobile thereby achieving
    smooth vehicle launch.
    The MRF clutch thus may
    replace the existing torque
    converters and therefore help
    increase the fuel economy.
    Advantages Of MR Fluid
    Easy to control
    As magnetic fields can be precisely controlled by
    current driven electromagnets
    Have higher magnitude of yield stress
    Compared to ER fluids the simple construction of
    devices, low power requirements for control, fast
    response
    DISADVANTAGES
    lHigh density, due to presence of iron, makes them
    heavy. However, operating volumes are small, so while
    this is a problem, it is not insurmountable.High-quality
    fluids are expensive.
    lFluids are subject to thickening after prolonged use and
    need replacing.
    lSettling of ferro-particles can be a problem for some
    applications.
