Retrofication of Mechanical Speed Governor with Electronic Speed Governor for Heavy Duty Diesel Engines
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 9
Abstract
The engine speed controller used in heavy duty/off road conventional diesel engine by the adaption of mechanical/electronic governor. In order to control engine speed, the governor controls the amount of fuel using fuel rack. In mechanical type the flyweights present in centrifugal governor are used to control the fuel rack which in turn controls the plunger present in fuel injection pump to control the fuel input to the engine according to the speed of the engine or as per the engine demand. In electronic governor the fuel rack is connected to throttle actuator lever and driven from ECU in electronic governor. We have retrofit mechanical governor to electronic governor to obtain smoother and better performance of engine.
