Abstract

Magnetorheological fluid (MRF) is a kind of rheological property which can produce fast changing material under the action of magnetic field. The rheological properties of MRF can be changed by controlling the strength of magnetic field. When there is no magnetic field, its characteristics appear as Newton fluid characteristics. When an external magnetic field is applied, it exhibits the behavior of Binghan plastic body with cohesive and plastic properties. Recent years, out of vehicle safety consideration, retarder is more and more widely used, this paper adopted MRF in vehicle retarder, together with water pump concept, a new type of configuration of retarder is designed. This retarder has the following advantages: short response time, easy control, low energy consumption and simple structure.
