Design of silicon based magneto rheological nano-fluid

Abstract

Cylindrical Magneto Rheological Brakes are designed in such a way that it will maximize the field induced braking torque and minimize the weight. Therefore different parameters affecting the torque are studied. These parameters are 1. The effect of structural properties of brake material 2. Magneto Rheological fluid properties 3. Different types of Magneto Rheological Fluids 4. Effect of Particle size 5. Effective working surface 6. Magneto Rheological Fluid composition 7. Temperature 8. Magnetic properties of Brake Material 9. Magnetic field srength. he effect of Nano sized particles in Magneto Rheological Fluid on braking torque and their effect on braking efficiency are investigated in this paper.
