Transient Magnetic Model of Magnetorheological Damper and Its Experimental Verification
Brno University of Technology, Institute of Machine and Industrial Design, Technická 2896/2 Brno, Czech Republic
The present paper deals with the transient magnetic model of the magnetorheological (MR) damper and its experimental verification. The response time of MR damper affects the quality of semi-active control of this damper. The lower the response time, the higher the system efficiency. The most important part of the response time of the MR damper is the response time of magnetic field of the MR damper which can be determined by transient magnetic model. The transient magnetic model was created by the software Ansys Electromagnetics 17.1 as 2D axisymmetric and verified by measurement of magnetic field in the gap of MR damper piston. The maximum difference between the model and the experiment was 28 %. The response time depends on the electric current in the coil of MR damper. The transient magnetic model was used for determination of influence of MR fluid type, material of cover and material of magnetic circuit on the response time of magnetic field of MR damper. The type of MR fluid has a significant influence on the response time. The lower the mass concentration of ferromagnetic particles, the lower the response time of magnetic field. A material selection of magnetic circuit is always a trade-off between the response time and the maximum magnetic flux density (dynamic force range) in the gap of the MR damper. According to the verified transient magnetic model, it is possible to find a suitable material of magnetic circuit for specific application (response time).
