Abstract Electrorheological effect on the dispersive system of polarizable fine powder/dielectric oil has been investigated. ER effect was explained divided into following 3 mechanisms; (1) surface conductance, (2) bulk conductance, and (3) induced polarization. Mathematical model which predicts the interactive force between two fine particles in the electrorheological fluid has been introduced based on the induced polarization mechanism. This model may provide guide to select materials for strong ER effect. The attractive force between two particles was calculated using the above model for the selected 7 materials such as ceramics, ferrites, polymers etc. From the calculation result, it was found that the ceramics and ferrites are good materials which show a strong ER effect.
본 연구에서는 분극성을 갖는 미세분말/유전유체 분산계내의 전기유변효과를 mechanism을 중심으로 고찰하였다. 전기유변효과를 일으키는 mechanism을 (1)입자표면전도(surface conductance) (2)입자내부전도(bulk conductance(3) 유도분극(induced polarization)으로 구분하여 설명하였다. 소수성(anhydrous-base)전기유변유체 내의 미세분말 입자간 상호인력을 예측할 수 있도록 유도분극 mechanism을 적용하여 수학적으로 모델화 함으로써 전기유변효과를 향상 시키기 위한 재료선정의 기초로 하였다. 전기유변유체의 미세입자로 이용될 수 있다고 여겨지는 ceramic, ferrite 및 polymer등 7가지 재료를 선정하여 계산한 결과 ceramic및 ferrite입자가 입자간 상호인력이 큰것으로 나타났다.
