Magnetic Fluid Sealing of a Sliding Shaft.

Abstract

The objective of this paper is to provide a design modification, using ferrofluid sealing, for the SCAMP Crimping Tool Module; while providing a step-by-step procedure for the design of ferrofluid sealing for a class of sliding shafts. This includes the formulae, derivations, assumptions and alternatives. Also presented for the reader is a brief familiarization with ferrofluid characteristics, capabilities and terminology.
