Wah Engineering College Projects Exhibition 2011

Introduction

At Wah Engineering College we believe in synergistic collaboration with the industry for achieving academic excellence. Our students develop a design & build project at the end of their studies in which they demonstrate their engineering skills to cater the industry needs. This year’s projects in discipline of Mechatronics, Mechanical and Electrical Engineering are being displayed in an exhibition at the WEC Hall on Thursday 26th July 2011.
This exhibition provides an excellent opportunity to industry managers for talent hunt as well as to look for new ideas for their products. So a job fair is also arranged at the venue of the exhibition.

Governor In Mechanical Engineering


Fig 28 simplified Mechanical-Hydraulic Governor

Diesel engine speed is controlled solely by the amount of fuel injected into the engine by the injectors. Because a diesel engine is not self-speed-limiting, it requires not only a means of changing engine speed (throttle control) but also a means of maintaining the desired speed. The governor provides the engine with the feedback mechanism to change speed as needed and to maintain a speed once reached.

A governor is essentially a speed-sensitive device, designed to maintain a constant engine speed regardless of load variation. Since all governors used on diesel engines control engine speed through the regulation of the quantity of fuel delivered to the cylinders, these governors may be classified as speed-regulating governors. As with the engines themselves there are many types and variations of governors. In this module, only the common mechanical-hydraulic type governor will be reviewed.
The major function of the governor is determined by the application of the engine. In an engine that is required to come up and run at only a single speed regardless of load, the governor is called a constant-speed type governor. If the engine is manually controlled, or controlled by an outside device with engine speed being controlled over a range, the governor is called a variable speed type governor. If the engine governor is designed to keep the engine speed above a minimum and below a maximum, then the governor is a speed-limiting type. The last category of governor is the load limiting type. This type of governor limits fuel to ensure that the engine is not loaded above a specified limit. Note that many governors act to perform several of these functions simultaneously.


Operation of a Governor
The following is an explanation of the operation of a constant speed, hydraulically compensated governor using the Woodward brand governor as an example. The principles involved are common in any mechanical and hydraulic governor.


Theory of Vibration with Applications By Willia Thomson

Thermodynaics edited by Mizutani Tadashi

Progress of thermodynamics has been stimulated by the findings of a variety of fields of science and technology. The principles of thermodynamics are so general that the application is widespread to such fields as solid state physics, chemistry, biology, astronomical science, materials science, and chemical engineering. The contents of this book should be of help to many scientists and engineers.
