摘要
Effects of magnetic field applied perpendicular to a shear plane in shear flow on the deformation of a ferrofluid droplet are numerically investigated. The boundary integral method is employed to solve the two-phase Stokes flow under a uniform magnetic field. When the magnetic field is applied perpendicular to the shear plane, the deformation of the droplet in the shear plane decreases. The magnetic field causes the droplet to elongate in the y-direction, and its cross-sectional radius in shear plane decreases. Consequently, the apparent capillary number in the shear plane decreases, thereby suppressing the droplet deformation. Droplet breakup is also suppressed by imposing a magnetic field perpendicular to the shear plane, thereby increasing the critical capillary numbers. The critical capillary numbers for the magnetic Bond numbers Bo = 2.0 and 4.0 increase to approximately 110% and 130%, respectively, than those without magnetic field. Furthermore, an equation for the theoretical prediction of the droplet deformation under a magnetic field in shear flow is presented, which is based on the small deformation theory, the decrease in the cross-sectional radius, and the boundary conditions at the droplet interface. The theoretical prediction agrees well with the numerical results for the variation in the magnetic susceptibility of the droplet as well as the viscosity ratio between the external fluid and the ferrofluid droplet under a small deformation. The critical capillary numbers under a magnetic field can also be predicted by using the numerical results without a magnetic field.
