Abstract
Abstract
The rational application of magnetic fluids in various technical systems requires their stability analysis, hydrodynamic particle size, dissipative processes in the colloid control. The existing viscometers do not fully meet all requirements, in particular, they do not allow research in a magnetic field of given magnitude and certain topography. It is proposed to determine rheological properties of magnetic fluids using rotary viscometer, in which two measuring gaps are structurally designed and filled with studied fluid, which is important for calculating characteristics of low viscosity magnetic media. The device design implements practically homogeneous magnetic field, varying within wide range and directed perpendicular to liquid shear stress. The device allows to steadily maintain shear rate in medium under study, and to determine viscosity with a sufficiently large change. A small magnetic fluid volume is required to estimate rheological characteristics. The accuracy of measurements of the internal friction force, device heating temperature, coaxial cylinders rotation speed and magnetic field inside investigated medium meet the requirements of international standards. Laminar fluid flow process in the device gap is described mathematically. This made it possible to justify the construction geometrical dimensions in order to increase the measurements and determine rheological properties of low-viscosity magnetic materials. The formulas for calculation of Newtonian fluid viscosity coefficient, shear stress and shear rate based on experimental data were obtained.
