FIGURE 13 Power take-offs for air-cooled engines. Fluid couplings
are also used to cushion shock loads in certain specialized applications.
In other applications, it is possible to calculate the torque required, from
which the horsepower (kW) can be determined. Or, as is not uncommon, the
new piece of equipment may be another size in a line of machines. In this
case, the power determination can be made on a proportional basis.
This procedure is the work of A. F. Milbrath, Vice President and Chief
