Magnetic fluid sealing

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hello,

I would like to model the sealing capability for a magnetic fluid in the annular gap of a system.
Is it possible to define the viscosity for the fluid as a function of the magnetic field?
And how can I model how much pressure this magnetic fluid can hold against another fluid in the annular gap, flowing at a constant flowrate Q.

Any tips are much appreciated!

Regards,
Jad
