A Porter governor carries a central oad of 30 kg 0 and each ball weighs 4.5 kg. The upper links are 200 mm long while the lower links are 300 mm long. The points of suspension of the upper and lower links are 50 mm from the axis of the spindle. Working from first principles, calculate the speed of the governor in r.p.m, if the radius of rotation of governor balls is 125 mm.

4.14. The system illustrated in Figure 4.26 is comprised of a board of length / with uniform mass per unit length of p. It sits on top of two counter-rotating cylinders, which are rotating with an angular velocity of @ in the directions indicated and are separated by a distance 1/2. You may assume that is large enough that the points of contact between the board and cylinders are always slipping and that the coefficient of dynamic friction between the board and cylinders is μ. If the board is not centered on the two cylinders, then the normal force will be greater on the side to which it is displaced because more of the weight of the board will be supported on that side. For example, in the figure, the normal force between the board and cylinder will be greater at the left cylinder, and this will cause a net force to the right. Let x denote the distance that the center of the board is displaced from the center of the two cylinders, as is illustrated in the figure, and determine the…
In a spring-loaded governor of the Hartnell type, the lengths of the horizontal and the vertical arms of the bell- crank lever are 40 mm and 80 mm respectively. The mass of each ball is 1.2 kg. The extreme radii of rotation of the balls are 70 mm and 105 mm. The distance of the fulcrum of each bell- crank lever is 75 mm from the axis of rotation of the governor. The minimum equilibrium speed is 420 rpm and the maximum equilibrium speed is 4% higher than this. Neglecting the obliquity of the arms, determine the (i) spring stiffness, (ii) initial compression, and (iii) equilibrium speed corresponding to radius of rotation of 95 mm.
Question 2 A Porter governor has a minimum speed of 134 rpm and a range of speed of 21 rpm. All four arms of the governor are equal in length, and each is equal to 250 m. The ball mass and the central mass loaded on the sleeve are 5 kg and 15 kg, respectively. Calculate the angle between the two upper arms of the governor when the governor starts to lift and when the governor is at maximum.
