Ferrofluids

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Physics ((LNP,volume 594))

Abstract

Magnetorheological suspensions are complex fluids which show a transition from a liquid behavior to a solid one upon application of a magnetic field. This transition is due to the the attractive dipolar forces between the particles which have been magnetized by the applied field. The formation of a network of particles or aggregates throughout the suspension is the basic phenomena which is responsible for the strength of the solid phase. In this paper we shall give an overview on the fluids and their properties and we shall especially emphasize the interplay between magnetic forces which are responsible for the gelling of the suspension and on the other hand of hydrodynamic and thermal forces which contribute to break this gel and allow the suspension to flow. The combination of these three forces gives rise to a very rich rheology whose many aspects are still not understood.
