Permanent magnetic couplings for mechanical power transmission

Magnetic Couplngs Operating Performance The following graphs represent the magnetic couplings GMDO compared in different working conditions. Part of the power transmitted by the electric motor is absorbed by the magnetic coupling due to three different reasons : eddy current, magnetic hysteresis and hydrodynamic resistance. Therefore is essential to know the fluid viscosity and the rpm in order to determine the magnetic coupling total efficiency.
