摘要: A magnetorheological fluid delivery system includes a mixing and tempering vesse, (52). Fluid, 11, is amitted to the vessel via a plurality of tangential ports, (55), created a mixing of the fluid in the vessel and promoting homogeneity. Fluid may be reconstituted in the vessel by metered addition of carrier fluid. A fixed-speed centrigugal pump, (66), disposed in the vessel pressurizes the system. Fluid is pumped through a magnetic-induciton flowmeter, (24), and a magnetic flow control valve, (86), having solenoid windings whereby MR fluid is magnectically stiffened to restrict flow.
