Abstract
Magnetorheological model suspensions with different contents of iron particles have been investigated. The results show an increase of the shear stress by increasing the magnetic field and the solid content, which was mathematically modelled. The influence of the solid content is approximately exponential without magnetic field and linear in strong magnetic fields. The effect of the temperature and of the base oil viscosity on the shear stress is negligible in the field but decisive without field. The sedimentation behavior also strongly depends on the iron particle content, where MR fluids with a higher concentration settle with a lower intensity due to the higher sediment height. The response time of the magnetorheological model suspensions could not be clearly determined, but it is less than 10 milliseconds.
