Abstract :
SINCE the original announcements of J. Rabinow´s investigations of magnetic fluid clutches in 1948,1 much energy has been expended to make practical use of this phenomenon. Application to computers, machine tools, dynamometers, and automotive clutches are but a few of the areas which have been studied. The results of these application studies have not been as rewarding as originally anticipated, although at least two manufacturers are making a commercial product.
