Abstract
A concentric electrorheological clutch (ERC) constituting the central part of a broader system: electro-hydro-aggregate (EHA) with an electrodrive (ED) on one side and a loading machine (brake B) on the other side is considered. The corresponding quasi-static model (at constant load and speed) is investigated and refined by insertion of power absorbed by electrorheological fluid (ERF). This increases the number of nondimensional parameters of the model from 8 to 12. Classification of several kinds of dissipation of energy in ERC is presented. Description and analysis of dissipation of the first kind are given more in detail and illustrated by synoptical diagrams. Also two definitions of efficiency of ERC are introduced and discussed.
