Pifferentiae between governor and flywheel ? S.No. Governor The function of a governor is to regulate the mean speed of an engine, when there are variations in the load, It is provided on prime movers such as engines and turbines, It works intermittently, ie., only when there is change in load. It has no influence over cyclic speed fluctuation. S. What is the principle of inertia governors ? is equilibrium speed ? speed. In inertia governors, the balls are so arranged that the inertia forces caused _ acceleration or retardation of the shaft tend to alter their positions, at which the governor balls arms, sleeve, efc., are in complete equilibrium and’ ‘is no upward or downward movement of the sleeve on the spindle is known as (A.U., Apr/May 2003] Flywheel ‘The function of a flywheel is to reduce the fluctuations of speed caused by the fluctuation of the engine turning moment during each cycle of operation. Tt is provided on engine and fabricating machines viz., rolling mills, punching machines, shear machines, presses, etc, It works continuously from cycle to cycle.

It is the product of the mean value of the effort and the distance through wi Ot sleeve moves, ‘ 10. What is meant by sensitiveness of a governor? [4.U, Apr/May 2004; Now/Dec 209g ¥ The sensitiveness is defined as the ratio of the mean speed to the difference bey the maximum and minimum speeds. ¥ A governor is said to be sensitive, when itreally responds 10 a small change of Spey 11. What is the effect of friction on the gove A : 205 The effect of friction on the governors is to increase the range of speed, govemor ee ‘and power of the governor. 12.

What is meant by hunting ovlDec-200 , The phenomenon of continuous fuctuation of the engine speed above and below te a peed is termed as hunting. This occurs in over-sensitive governors. 14. Explain the term stability of A governor is said to be stable if there is only one radius of rotation for all ‘equilibrium speeds of the balls within the working range. If the equilibrium speed increases the radius [A.U,, Nov/Dec 2006(1); Nov/Dec 2007()) + with zero range of speed is known as an isochronous governor. Actually the is the stage of infinite sensitivity. ie., when the equilibrium speed ® for all radii of rotation of the balls within the working range, the ‘governor isfa) ny nae € i ‘ a ai in for hs Precension ix always parallel 10 the et ‘ip during rolling my, OF the gyroscopic couple noting on the S Thefore athe rear end ie known a end of a ship ts called.
