What is the governor in a Steam Turbine? A governor in a steam turbine is an electronic component to monitor and regulates the rotational speed of the turbine. The main objective is to maintain a constant speed in response to variation in load. Governor in the turbine is a type of feedback device. It senses …

What is Governor? A governor is a device that measures and controls a machine’s speed, such as an engine. The centrifugal governor, also known as the Watt or fly-ball governor, is a classic example of proportional control that employs weights mounted on spring-loaded arms to calculate how quickly a shaft is spinning and then uses …
Measuring the speed of rotation is an important parameter in production industries. Tachometers are the instruments used to measure the rotational speed. There are two types of tachometer based on the working principle; Magnetic and Optical Magnetic Tachometer: One of the most common transducers for measuring the angular speed of a rotating member (gear, shaft, …
