UNIVERSAL GOVERNOR APPARATUS
Model ELE0023
The
set-up is designed to study the working of different governors normally used
to control the speed. It consists of a main spindle, mounted vertically on
the base plate. This spindle is driven by a variable speed Motor which is
also mounted vertically on the same base plate. Any one governor assembly out
of four can be mounted on spindle. The spindle speed is controlled by speed
control unit. A graduated scale is fitted to the sleeve to measure the
displacement. SCOPE OF EXPERIMENTATIONS: Determination of characteristic curve of a sleeve position against speed of rotation for all governors. To study the effect of varying the mass of the center sleeve in Porter and Proell Governor. To study the effect of varying the initial spring compression in Hartnell Governor. To study the determination of characteristics curves of radius of rotation against controlling force (Actual & Theoretical) for all governors. UTILITIES REQUIRED: Power Supply 230 V AC, Single Phase. Floor Space 1.5 x 1.5 m Tachometer to find out RPM. TECHNICAL DETAILS: Spindle Material Stainless Steel Governor Mechanism Four different types of governor mechanism with spring and weights. Watt Governor Porter Governor Hartnell Governor Proell Governor Motor Variable speed, Standard Make, FHP Motor. Control Panel For speed control of motor |
