Abstract

Magnetocaloric fluids represent a class of magnetic fluids that can generally be subdivided into two main categories, i.e. ferrofluids (FF) (or magnetic nanofluids) and magnetorheological (MR) fluids. The general characteristic of these fluids is that they change their physical properties when exposed to an external magnetic field. Ferrofluids are suspensions of magnetic nanoparticles dispersed in certain base liquids. Magnetorheological fluids are particle suspensions of micron-sized particles consisting of a magnetic material dispersed in a carrier liquid. The size difference between the particles in ferrofluids and the particles in magnetorheological fluids results in the most important differences concerning the properties and the behaviour of these fluids.
