Overview

Fluid coupling on Transfluid’s industrial transmission design KPTO.
A fluid coupling is composed of a few components, in addition the hydraulic fluid:

The housing, also acknowledged as the shell[five] (which need to have an oil-restricted seal around the generate shafts), includes the fluid and turbines.
Two turbines (fanlike components):
1 connected to the enter shaft acknowledged as the pump or impeller,[5] principal wheel[five] enter turbine
The other connected to the output shaft, acknowledged as the turbine, output turbine, secondary wheel[5] or runner
The driving turbine, known as the ‘pump’, (or driving torus[a]) is rotated by the prime mover, which is usually an inner combustion motor or electric powered motor. The impeller’s movement imparts each outwards linear and rotational motion to the fluid.
