Hi am amare i would like to get details on download ppt for flywheel and governor ..My friend said download ppt for flywheel and governor will be available here and now i am living at ......... and i last studied in the college/school ......... and now am doing ....i need help on ......etc

Flywheel is an internal energy storage device. It absorbs mechanical energy during the period when the supply of energy is more than the requirement and releases it during the period when the requirement of energy is more than the supply. The main function of a fly wheel is to smoothen out variations in the speed of a shaft caused by torque fluctuations. If the source of the driving torque or load torque is fluctuating in nature, then a flywheel is used. Many machines have load .
A flywheel is a big circular mass to store energy when in the form of rotational kinetic energy slowly added to it by intermittent torque, generally in a internal combustion engine Pistons . Once the wheel starts rotating its intertia will keep the Rytham.
To give an anology just take a solid disk suspended on its center with frictionless support and attach a crack leaver at the center and try to rotate till it rotates at a constant speed. Then slowly the force on ur hand reduces now after the speed is reached if you try to added more force or reduce the force the wheel will not slow down or speed up quickly this way it will keep th Rytham or speed.
A governor is basically a fuel input or energy input controller for an engine. As shown in the picture it will have two equal weights A & B hanged pivoted at on the central shaft with equal length arms. When the shaft rotates both arms tend to move up due to the centrifugal weight that acts on the weights. The movement of arms will be controlled generally by an added spring with adjustable stiffness that why the speed at which the governor shaft has to rotate is decided at equilibrium. This is bit confusing if you don't consider that the shaft only rotates when it is connected to engine shaft by some means and the speed leaver is connected to moving arms of the governor. So effectively the governor is a speed controller but it works with energy input from the engine.
