Desirability of improved form of governor to prevent serious over-speeding of rotary machinery is discussed with regard to main defects leading to failure of existing governors; new design manufactured and tested at Wallsend Research Station of British Ship Research Assn is designed specifically for marine propulsion or auxiliary turbines but is suitable for any other form of rotating machine; advantages are mainly elimination of fretting and/or fretting corrosion, absence of striking mechanism, and deposition of spring so that it is unaffected by centrifugal force; diagram is included.
