The speed of an engine connected to an alternator is generally maintained as constant & the variation of load is taken care of by the engine governor which accordingly increases` the fuel rack or decreases the fuel rack & thus the fuel input to the engine. All of this happens at a constant engine speed maintained by the governor. If without any change in the load on the engine, the fuel supply is increased , may be because of defective governor, the engine speed will immediately shoot-up causing activation of Over Speed Trip assembly ( a safety device fitted on the engine to prevent damage to the reciprocating & rotating engine components from incresaed speeds).

What happens if input to a generator is increased where it is synchronised to a powergrid whose Mw is fixed?

When input to generator increased when it is synchronised, speed of alternator get disturbed which inturn leads to the change in frequency,when frequency gets change synchronization is no long.

Get a bigger engine. Or keep current engine and reduce drag


What happens to the engine RPM when load is increased?

When the load on the engine is increased, the engine RPM typically decreases because the engine has to work harder to overcome the additional resistance. This is due to the increased demand for power output to maintain the same speed or acceleration.

How does EGT and gas generator speed in a free power turbine with a constant speed propeller behave when power setting is increased?

As power setting is increased in a free power turbine with a constant speed propeller, EGT (exhaust gas temperature) will rise due to increased fuel flow and combustion in the engine. Gas generator speed will also increase to maintain power output and drive the propeller at a constant speed. The engine and propeller system will work together to balance power output and propeller speed.

How can a jet engine be integrated into a car for enhanced performance and speed?

Integrating a jet engine into a car for enhanced performance and speed involves modifying the car's design to accommodate the engine's power and airflow requirements. This can include redesigning the chassis, fuel system, and cooling system to handle the increased power output and heat generated by the jet engine. Additionally, the car's drivetrain and suspension may need to be upgraded to handle the increased speed and acceleration provided by the jet engine. Overall, integrating a jet engine into a car requires careful engineering and customization to ensure optimal performance and safety.


How working the governor during steam turbine operate?

governor senses the speed of spindle of engine and controls the mechanism of opening and closing of throttle valve


Why you use throttle valve in steam engines?

Athrottle valve controls the flow of steam to the engine. Without throttling the steam the engine will simply run full speed and vary in speed as the load increases and decreases. The throttle valve maintains a steady speed by opening as the load increases and closing as the load decreases.
