Abstract: This presentation presents measurements of the efficiency of NASA's 2nd magnetic gear prototype. A detailed discussion of the test rig used to make these measurements was presented, including a thorough uncertainty analysis. The reported uncertainties are 95% confidence intervals that include the effects of temperature and parasitic loads. The prototype's response was measured at output speeds between 124 rpm and 744 rpm for a controlled output torque of 10 Nm (8% of the prototype's maximum t...
