Popis: Magnetic fluids have an important position in the design of technical systems due to their unique properties. They are used primarily in mechanical energy dissipation systems, i.e. brakes and vibration dampers, as well as in the design of seals. In many applications, the magnetic fluid operates at high flow velocities through narrow slots. Therefore, there is a need to determine the rheological properties of this type of substance at high shear rates. Due to the high density of magnetic fluids and the associated occurrence of mass forces, as well as the requirements regarding the distribution of the magnetic field, the measurement of the viscosity of magnetic fluids at high shear rates is extremely difficult when conventional measuring systems are used. The paper presents a proposal for a new measuring system and a method to determine the viscosity of magnetic fluids at high shear rates, as well as the results of research on the possibility of using the presented structure in the case of ferrofluids.
