Abstract

The effect of shear flow (flow in a circular tube) on the process of relaxation of the magnetization of a magnetic fluid is investigated theoretically and experimentally. The experiments reveal a jump in the high-frequency susceptibility when the flow stops. This jump depends on the measurement frequency on the interval from 2 to 40 kHz, on the flow rate and on the structure of the magnetic fluid. A theory describing the dependence of the jump in high-frequency susceptibility on the frequency and the structure and flow rate of the fluid is proposed. The theory is found to be consistent with the experimental data.
