Kinetic Friction Torque |
A torque that applies to the input shaft. This parameter can have a positive value, or 0. During movement (when velocity is different from 0) this torque acts opposed to the direction of the motion. The absolute value of the torque during movement is constant, independent of the velocity. At stand-still (velocity =0), this torque does not occur. A typical example for this type of torque is kinetic friction between solid bodies.

|
Viscous friction torque |
Velocity-dependent additional torque at the input shaft. This parameter can have a positive value, or 0. The absolute value of the torque is proportional to the absolute value of the velocity. The direction of the torque is opposed to the direction of motion. A viscous friction torque is caused by the friction of a fluid.
