The study of magnetorheological shaft seal

This thesis deals with the experimental study of magnetorheological shaft seal. The purpose of this diploma thesis is to describe the operating parameters of rotational magnetoreological shaft seal. In thesis, the effects of magnetic field and shaft speed on the pressure resistance and braking torque are described. Operating parameters were measured by an experimental device. Research has shown that the magnetoreological seal is characterized by a high pressure resistant. Disadvantages are the high braking torque and leakage of carrier oil from the magnetorheological fluid. These problems have been solved by a new design of magnetic circuit, that has been identified as a magnetoreological gradient pinch seal (MRGPS)
