A Proell governor has arms of 300 mm length. The upper arms are hinged on the axis of rotation, whereas the lower arms are pivoted at a distance of 35 mm from the axis of rotation. The extension of lower arms to which the balls are attached are 100 mm long. The mass of each ball is 8 kg and the mass on the sleeve is 60 kg. At the minimum radius of rotation of 200 mm, the extensions are parallel to the governor axis. Determine the equilibrium speed of the governor for the given configuration. What will be the equilibrium speed for the maximum radius of 250 mm?

A shaft with 3 meters span between two bearings carries two masses of 10 kg and 20 kg acting at the extremities of the arms 0.45 m and 0.6 m long respectively. The planes in which these masses rotate are 1.2 m and 2.4 m respectively from the left end bearing supporting the shaft. The angle between the arms is 60°. The speed of rotation of the shaft is 200 r.p.m. If the masses are balanced by two counter-masses rotating with the shaft acting at radii of 0.3 m and placed at 0.3 m from each bearing centers, estimate the magnitude of the two balance masses and their orientation with respect to the X-axis, i.e. mass of 10 kg ‎‏Note: It must be solved using the graphic method, not the equations method.

The arms of a Porter governor are equal in length and pivot on the axis of rotation. The mass of each ball is 10 kg and the mass of the central load is 25 kg. The ball rotates at radius 210 mm when the governor is at its lowest setting and 260 mm when it is at its maximum setting. At maximum speed, the vertical distance from the center of the sleeve to the pivot was 500 mm. For another case, it can be seen that the height of the governor will reduce to half values when the ball masses are replaced by three-time larger from the first case. The friction force for both cases is 10 N. Find arms length LDetermine the range of speed in first casewhat will be the final range of speedAs a result of extracting the speed range values in both cases, what did you conclude?
The arms of a Porter governor are each 250 mm long and pivoted on the governor axis. The mass of each ball is 5 kg and the mass of the central sleeve is 30 kg. The radius of rotation of the balls is 150 mm when the sleeve begins to rise and reaches to certain radius at maximum speed. The governor has radius that is 175 mm at mid position. The speed range of the governor is 38 rpm, and the increment in speeds is constant in the three positions. Find : (1) the friction of the load which existed at the sleeve, and (2) the governor radius at maximum speed. The friction is ignore in mid position only.
