متن کاملSurface tension measurement techniques of magnetic fluids at an interface between different fluids using perpendicular field instability
Two measurement techniques to determine the surface tension of ferrofluids using the perpendicular field instability are described. Four ferrofluid layers were examined with magnetic field applied perpendicularly to the surface of s1d oil-based ferrofluid in air; s2d water-based ferrofluid in air, s3d oil-based ferrofluid, and s4d fluorocarbon-based ferrofluid, both below a blend of 50% n-Propy...

We have calculated the general dispersion relationship for surface waves on a ferrofluid layer of any thickness and viscosity, under the influence of a uniform vertical magnetic field. The amplification of these waves can induce an instability called peaks instability (Rosensweig instability). The expression of the dispersion relationship requires that the critical magnetic field and the critic...

Magnetic field based micro/nanoelectromechanical systems (MEMS/NEMS) devices are proposed that use 10 nm diameter magnetic particles, with and without a carrier fluid, for a new class of nanoduct flows, nanomotors, nanogenerators, nanopumps, nanoactuators, and other similar nanoscale devices. A few examples of macroscopic ferrohydrodynamic instabilities that result in patterns, lines, and struc...
متن کاملCooling Enhancement of a Photovoltaic Panel Through Ferrofluid Stimulation Using a Magnetic-Wind Turbine
Wind energy is used to rotate a magnetic turbine in order to remove heat from the surface of a photovoltaic (PV) panel. A three-bladed turbine, which rotates with wind energy, has rotational motion underneath the studied PV panel in order to move Magnetic Nano-Particles (MNPs). In addition, effects of the magnetic field strength (B=450-830 mT), rotational velocity of the magnetic turbine (ω), a...
