​

Answer 1

Answer:

Advantages and Disadvantages of Fluid Friction

• 1. , Flotation of ship,Hover crafts, hot air balloons etc which helps in transportation .
• Fluid Friction reduces the speed of objects moving through the fluids.
• It makes speeding up harder.
• When objects, move through fluids, they loose some energy in overcoming the fluid friction. This decreases their efficiency.

Answer 2

Answer:

Advantages and disadvantages of Fluid coupling

Advantages

Controlled start up speed without shock loading of power transmission system.

There is no mechanical contact between driving shaft and driven shaft (or between pump wheel and turbine wheel). Hence there is no frictional wearing of them.

Power transmission is smooth. Motor or engine starts unloaded.

Fluid coupling can dampen shock loads. Fluid coupling can run smoothly even in extreme conditions.

The power transmission is free from vibration. There is no chance of vibration noises when power transmitted from vibrating engine to the driven shaft by using a fluid coupling.

Fluid coupling can be used in both vertical and horizontal application.

In case of overloading, it can disengage from driver by automatically draining the oil filled by blowing of fusible plug

The maximum torque can be adjusted by varying the amount of oil filled in the casing.

Disadvantages

There is always slip. There is always slight difference in speed of pump wheel and turbine wheel

The fluid filled in casing must be compatible with coupling component, it directly affects the transmission behavior of the fluid coupling.

Fluid coupling cannot develop torque when the driving shaft and driven shaft are rotating in same angular velocity.

Under stalling condition, the coupling dissipates energy as heat it may lead to damage.
