Abstract
A theoretical analysis of magnetic couplers is recounted, leading to the design and manufacture of prototype disc type magnetic couplers. Design and development of experimental test rigs are also given. Test results are presented and compared with theoretical calculations. This shows very good agreement. The exception to the rule was the case of axial load measurements, which were not accurately evaluated by the computations. The geometries tested here showed the optimum design to consist of rotors with eight poles, magnet thickness of 10 mm and a filling factor of about 0.7.
