Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To achieve controllability of a colloidal damper (CD) under electromagnetic variable fields, a water based ferrofluid was used. Control of the damping properties is obtained by moving permanent magnets, which are placed either on the piston head, or on the external surface of the cylinder. Nanoporous matrix is placed in the right-side, and ferrofluid is introduced in the left-side chambers of the cylinder. During compression, ferrofluid penetrates the nanopores, producing the dissipation effect. During extension, ferrofluid exudes from nanopores and returns in the left-side chamber. Thus, magnetic piston assists penetration and exudation of the ferrofluid in/from nanopores. Controllability is enhanced by moving the outer magnet. To properly select the magnets, flow visualizations inside a transparent damper were performed, and quantity of ferrofluid displaced by magnets was measured. From vibration tests of the trial CD, the control range of the damping performances was clarified.
