In the course of Product Design and Development, The Engineering Design Process is the sequential design process that may involve multi-disciplines such as mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, architectural engineering, industrial engineering, material science, aerodynamics, fluid dynamics, and so on. Engineering Design Process As we have already mentioned that the Engineering Design Process is the sequential […]
What is the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator? | MBTI
Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, also known as MBTI is a simple measurement indicator of how people behave and contribute in work environment. It is a sort of a questionnaire kind of thing, that differs the psychological preferences of the people, how they perceive the world and make decisions. Myers-Briggs Type Indicator Originally, Isabel Myers and Katherine […]
What are Cam and Follower? What are the types?
You must have heard this Cam and follower mechanism is in Internal combustion engines. A Cam is a rotating machine element which gives reciprocating or oscillatory motions to another element known as the follower. Cam and Follower The Cam and the follower have a line contact and constitute a higher pair. Higher pair: When the […]

What is Torsionally Equivalent Shaft?
In General, shaft comprised of multiple cross-sectional diameters with different lengths. Some times it is necessary to assume the shaft as a uniform diameter and length for some calculations such as finding the natural frequency. In such cases, we have to replace the different cross-section diameters with the equivalent shaft of uniform diameter. Which will […]
Natural Frequency of Free Torsional Vibrations
In the previous articles, we have discussed how to find the Natural Frequency for Free Longitudinal Vibrations and for free Transverse Vibrations. In this article, we are going to discuss the Natural Frequency of Free Torsional Vibrations. As we know the natural Frequency of the Free Torsional Vibrations can be determined by the following methods. Equilibrium […]
Natural Frequency of Free Transverse Vibrations
In the previous article, we have discussed how to find the Natural Frequency for Free Longitudinal Vibrations. In this article, we are going to discuss the Natural Frequency of Free Transverse Vibrations. As we know the natural Frequency of the Free Transverse Vibrations can be determined by the following methods. Equilibrium Method Energy Method Rayleigh’s […]
Natural Frequency of Free Longitudinal Vibrations
We have discussed different types of free vibrations (Longitudinal, Transverse, Torsional) in the previous article. In this article, we are going to discuss the Natural Frequency of Free Longitudinal Vibrations. The natural Frequency of the Free Longitudinal Vibrations can be determined by the following methods. Equilibrium Method Energy Method Rayleigh’s method Equilibrium Method Let us […]
What is Pickering Governor? How does it work?
The Pickering Governor is spring controlled load governor categorised under the centrifugal governors. We have discussed the Hartung Governor, Hartnell governor and Wilson-Hartnell Governor in the previous articles, which are also the spring-loaded governors with which have different construction and working principle from this type of governor. Pickering Governor Pickering Governor is spring-loaded governor as we have mentioned, instead […]
What is Wilson-Hartnell Governor? How does it work?
The Wilson-Hartnell Governor is spring controlled load governor categorised under the centrifugal governors. We have discussed the Hartung Governor and Hartnell governor in the previous articles, which are also the spring-loaded governors with which have different construction and working principle from this type of governor. Wilson-Hartnell Governor In this type of governor, there is no need for the […]
What is Hartung Governor? How does it work?
The Hartung Governor is spring controlled load governor categorised under the centrifugal governors. We have discussed the Hartnell governor in the previous article, which is also a spring-loaded governor which has a different working principle from this type of governor. Hartung Governor In this type of governor, there is no need for the load on […]
What is Hartnell Governor? How does it work?
In the previous articles, we have discussed the dead weight type governor such as the proter governor and the Proell governor. The Hartnell governor is the spring-loaded type governor instead of dead weight on the sleeve. Hartnell Governor Hartnell Governor is basically a Centrifugal governor with a spring-loaded weight instead of dead weight on the […]
What are the types of Free Vibrations?
As we have discussed the vibratory motion in the Previous article, The three different types of vibrations are the free vibrations, forced Vibrations, Damped Vibrations. In this article, we are going to discuss what are the different types of Free Vibrations. Types of Free Vibrations When an initial displacement is given to a body, and […]
What is Vibratory Motion? | Terms used in Vibratory Motion
In the Theory of Machines, the term Vibratory motion is defined as the to and fro motion of a body about a fixed point due to the internal forces by the strain energy. Let’s discuss more on the Vibratory Motion of an object and different terms used in the Vibratory motion in this article. Vibratory […]
What is Proell Governor? How does it work?
As we have discussed in the previous article, the Porter governor has the central load on the sleeve, now we are going to modify it by extending the links upward to support the revolving balls to make the Proell Governor. This will make the Proell governer more sensitive than the Porter Governor. Proell Governor This […]
What is Porter Governor? How does it work?
The Porter governor is a modification of Watt’s governor with an additional central load attached to the sleeve. In the previous article, we have discussed the Watt Governor in detail. The Watt governor is the simple centrifugal governor which works based on the balancing of the centrifugal force as the working principle. Now let’s discuss […]
What is Watt Governor?
The simplest type of Centrifugal Governor is the Watt governor. In the previous article, we have discussed the Centrifugal governer in detail. In this article, we are going to discuss the Watt Governor in more detail. Watt Governor The main working principle behind Watt governor is the balancing of the centrifugal force. So these come […]
What is Section Modulus?
Section Modulus is also referred to as the Polar Modulus or the Torsional Sectional Modulus. It is denoted by Zp. Along with these, there are two more definitions also there to discuss. So let’s discuss this topic in more detail. (FYI: We discuss this topic more in terms of circular shafts, If you are looking […]
Centrifugal Governor | Types of Governors
As we have already discussed what is a governor in an Engine, in this article, we are going to see how many different types of governors are available under Centrifugal Governor and Inertia Governor. Governor Types The governors are broadly classified as under centrifugal governors and the Inertia Governors. The Centrifugal governors are widely used […]
What is Governor in Engine? How Does it Work?
The main function of the Governor in the IC Engines is to regulate the mean speed of the engine when there is a variation in the load. But there the flywheel is used to control the fluctuations of the speed during each cycle. It should not be confused with the governor function with the flywheel […]
