Abstract

The purpose of this study is to develop the sensor to measure the wall shear stress due to the flow by using MCF rubber. MCF is the name of Magnetic Compound Fluid. MCF rubber is combining the metal particle in a natural rubber (NR) latex. The MCF rubber can be measured the force normal to the rubber and shearing force. The force acting on MCF rubber causes the change of electric conductivity of rubber. This is caused by the deformation of MCF rubber. The experiments are carried out with the mechanism of rotational viscometer. The results show that the MCF rubber has the good time response as the sensor.
