Steam governor hunting refers to the oscillation or fluctuation in the speed of a steam engine as it tries to maintain a constant speed under varying load conditions. When the load changes, the steam governor adjusts the supply of steam to the engine, but if the adjustments are too sensitive or the system is improperly calibrated, it can lead to a cycle of over-correction and under-correction. This results in a "hunting" behavior, where the engine speed continuously swings above and below the desired set point. Effective governor design and tuning are essential to minimize this instability.
The function of the steam engine is to convert heat energy into motive power, mechanical energy. A boiler generates steam by the application of heat, that steam is then expanded (losing its heat energy) into a steam engine which moves a load (locomotive, line shaft, pump, machine, generator, etc.).
It keeps the engine from over revving.
the function of a governor is to limit the rpm of an engine. it works by limiting the amount of fuel allowed to go into the combustion chamber
To convert heat energy into mechanical energy.
To limit the speed at which the vehicle can be driven.
