Abstract

Experimental work on the Sensitivity Analysis of Speed Governors is reported. A test rig for mechanical speed governors was assembled. Three types of mechanical governors, namely, Porter, Proell and Hartnell were considered. For the three governor types, speed variation relative to mass at centre sleeve (for a fixed sleeve position) was recorded. The maximum and minimum speeds for each type of speed governor were identified. Sensitivity value for each governor was computed and sensitivity ranking was done for them.
