Experimental Investigation into the Effect of a Magnetic Field on Magnetorheological Fluids under an Impact Load

The apparent viscosity of magnetorheological (MR) fluids changes in the presence of a magnetic field. The stronger the magnetic field applied, the more the apparent viscosity increases. An increase in the apparent viscosity increases the restriction on the flow of MR fluids. In this study, we perform a qualitative analysis to investigate the effect of a magnetic field on MR fluids under an impact load. An experimental apparatus that consists of a drop-test tower was developed to simulate the impact load, and an MR fluid in a U-pipe was subjected to the impact load via a piston rod. In the experiment, we measured the displacement and velocity of the piston rod. On the basis of the results, the influence of a given magnetic field on the behavior of MR fluids under an impact load is discussed.
