Abstract
A magnetic field induced agglomeration of magnetic particles in magnet ic fluids (mineral oil and kerosene based) with several volume concent rations was studied by means of optical microscope equipped with a vid eo camera. Scrutiny of the video revealed that time evolution of the a ggregation process results from two processes i.e. (i) the formation o f new (or primary) agglomerations (t less-than-or-equal-to 2s) and (ii ) the coalescence of primary agglomerations (t > 2s).
