Instability of finite volumes of magnetic fluid in channels

OSTI ID:6893619
The instability and magnetohydrodynamic behavior of a magnetic liquid comprised of a suspension of magnetite particles in transformer oil and in droplet form are assessed under experimental conditions in a tube under the effect of a magnetic field of varying strength. Flow visualization is used to monitor the behavior of the liquid. A flow model is constructed based on the experimental data which depicts, along with the above properties, the dependence of the critical magnetization on the dimensions of the capillary tube.
