 The best mechanical analogy of magnetic induction is a turbocharger or a
turbine.
Flow (current) -at- pressure (voltage) feeds the input tubine (primary) which is
coupled by a slip ring or differential shaft to the output turbine (secondary)
to generate a flow and pressure in the output. The induction can be understood
in an AC circuit by adding correlates of oscillation to the flow. Any rigid
mechanical analogy will suffer from the distance of solid behavior from fluid.
