Abstract
A dry fluid drive having a housing with a center axis about which the housing rotates, and a cavity therein concentric with the housing, a dry fluid in the cavity, and a rotor with two spaced sections disposed in the cavity with the hub of the rotor in alignment with the center axis of the housing. A reaction vane of generally annular configuration is connected to the housing at the periphery of the cavity and extends inwardly from the periphery between the rotor sections. The reaction vane is provided with openings such as spaces, notches or holes to facilitate uniform distribution of the dry fluid in the cavity as the housing accelerates to full operating rotational speed. The vane may be of either a straight or undulated configuration, and in the latter configuration, the grooves and ribs increase in magnitude from the outer periphery toward the center.
