13 Basics of Governor Calculators

Total Downward Force on Sleeve in Wilson-Hartnell Governor
Go Force = Mass on Sleeve*Acceleration due to Gravity+(Tension in the auxiliary spring*Distance of auxiliary spring from mid of lever)/Distance of main spring from mid point of lever
Speed of Rotation in RPM
Go Mean Equilibrium Speed in RPM = 60/(2*pi)*sqrt((tan(Angle b/w axis of radius of rotation & line OA))/Mass of Ball)
Ratio of Length of Arm to Length of Link
Go Ratio of Length of Link to Length of Arm = tan(Angle of Inclination of Link to Vertical)/tan(Angle of Inclination of Arm to Vertical)
Corresponding Radial Force Required at Each Ball for Spring Loaded Governors
Go Corresponding Radial Force Required at Each Ball = (Force Required at Sleeve to Overcome Friction*Length of sleeve arm of lever)/(2*Length of ball arm of lever)
Angle between Axis of Radius of Rotation and Line Joining Point on Curve to Origin O
Go Angle b/w axis of radius of rotation & line OA = atan(Controlling Force/Radius of Rotation if Governor is in Mid-Position)
Angle between Axis of Radius of Rotation and Line Joining Point on Curve to Origin
Go Angle b/w axis of radius of rotation & line OA = atan(Mass of Ball*Mean Equilibrium Angular Speed^2)
Mean Equilibrium Speed in RPM
Go Mean Equilibrium Speed in RPM = (Minimum equilibrium speed in r.p.m+Maximum equilibrium speed in r.p.m)/2
Mean Equilibrium Angular Speed
Go Mean Equilibrium Angular Speed = (Minimum equilibrium angular speed+Maximum equilibrium angular speed)/2
Sleeve Load for Decrease in Speed Value when Taking Friction into Account
Go Sleeve load for decrease in speed = Total load on sleeve-Force Required at Sleeve to Overcome Friction
Sleeve Load for Increase in Speed Value when Taking Friction into Account
Go Sleeve load for increase in speed = Total load on sleeve+Force Required at Sleeve to Overcome Friction
Increased Speed
Go Increased Speed = Mean Equilibrium Speed in RPM*(1+Percentage Increase in Speed)
Governor Power
Go Power = Mean Effort*Lift of Sleeve
Height of Watt Governor
Go Height of Governor = 895/(Speed in RPM^2)

Height of Watt Governor Formula

Height of Governor = 895/(Speed in RPM^2)
h = 895/(N^2)

What is the use of governor?

Governor is the device used to control the speed in engines. It is observed that when load is applied on the engine, the speed tends to decrease which is known as rpm drop also, to compensate the speed, governor is used in all stationary or mobile engines which run on either single speed or variable speeds.

How to Calculate Height of Watt Governor?

Height of Watt Governor calculator uses Height of Governor = 895/(Speed in RPM^2) to calculate the Height of Governor, Height of watt governor is the vertical distance from the plane of rotation of the balls to the point of intersection of the upper arms along the axis of the spindle. Height of Governor is denoted by h symbol.

How to calculate Height of Watt Governor using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Height of Watt Governor, enter Speed in RPM (N) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Height of Watt Governor calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.261524 = 895/(58.5^2).
