A loaded governor of the Porter type has equal arms and links each 250 mm long. The mass of each ball is 2 kg and the central mass is 12 kg. When the ball radius is 150 mm, the valve is fully open and when the radius is 185 mm, the valve is closed. Find the maximum speed and the range of speed. If the maximum speed is to be increased 20% by an addition of mass to the central load, find what additional mass is required. [Ans. 193 r.p.m.; 16 r.p.m.; 6.14 kg]

A loaded governor of the Porter type has equal arms and links each 250 mm long. The mass of each
ball is 2 kg and the central mass is 12 kg. When the ball radius is 150 mm, the valve is fully open and
when the radius is 185 mm, the valve is closed. Find the maximum speed and the range of speed. If the
maximum speed is to be increased 20% by an addition of mass to the central load, find what additional
mass is required.
[Ans. 193 r.p.m.; 16 r.p.m.; 6.14 kg]
