Abstract
This research was conducted to determine the effect of the time and frequency of magnetic field application on MRF pressure performance. It was carried out by placing magnetorheological fluid (MRF) in a U-shaped, glass tube and then repeatedly applying a magnetic field to it for a certain time period with a particular frequency set by the generator frequency. The length of the application period of the magnetic field, the frequency of the application of the magnetic field, and the magnitude of changes in fluid pressure that occurred and changes in pressure in the MRF were recorded with a data logger for a specific time, which was 60 s. From the field tests that were carried out, it was found that during the application of a continuous magnetic field, there was pressure on the MRF until it reached the maximum pressure; then, there was a gradual decrease in pressure when the magnetic field was turned off, but the pressure was intense. It was shown that the pressure decreased rapidly as the magnetism disappeared, even causing the pressure to drop below the initial pressure, which, in turn, gradually rose again toward the equilibrium pressure. Meanwhile, during the repeated application of a magnetic field, it appeared that the MRF effectively produced pressure in response to the presence of a magnetic field up to a frequency of 5 Hz. The higher the applied magnetic field frequency, the smaller the pressure change that occurred. Starting at a frequency of 10 Hz, the application of a magnetic field produced more minor pressure changes, and the resulting pressure continued to decrease as the liquid level decreased toward the initial equilibrium position.

With the results of this study, it is known that with the stability of the magnetorheological fluid (MRF) pressure performance with time and the frequency of application of the magnetic field, it appears that the pressure generated by the MRF is unstable, changes with time, and the MRF is unable to respond to generate pressure at the frequency of application of the magnetic field above 10 Hz
The strength of the magnetic field, which is represented by the strength of the electric current, is correlated with the pressure of the resulting liquid
Summary
Technology is developing quickly and continuously, which means the quality of human life is continually improving. Most research on MRF has looked at and developed the potential of MRF based on its ability to change its shear strength dynamically by exploiting the dynamics of changing electrically generated magnetic fields These changes will cause changes in the fluid shear strength. This feature is utilized in most applications that apply MRF as a smart material Another issue with less attention from this MRF potential is the ability of the carrier fluid to generate pressure as a result of the movement of magnetic particles in it. Observations have been made with regard to changes in the magnitude of MRF pressure as a result of variations in the application of magnetic field strength to MRF [33].
