<p>The present invention relates to a hydrodynamic brake comprising a stator (1) and a rotor (2) which each comprises an annular recess (5, 12) and a plurality of vanes (8, 15). The stator (1) and the rotor (2) are provided coaxially in relation to each other in such a way that the annular recesses (5, 12) of the stator (1) and the rotor (2) form a toroid-shaped space. A medium is arranged to be supplied to the toroid-shaped space in order to provide a brake action during rotation of the rotor (2). In order to reduce the risk of cavitation of the medium, the vanes (8) of the stator (1) comprises at least a chamfered portion (20) at a radially outer end portion. Advantageously, the vanes (15) of the rotor (2) also comprise such a corresponding chamfered portion (24) at a radially inner end portion.</p> |
