Time of Closure. Mechanical (governors effect an entire … closure of gate usually in 15 to 25 seconds, although some types havebeen constructed that require only about 3 seconds. In the case of hydraulic governors, this time may be reduced toone second J such governors therefore afford very close speed regu-lation. WATER-POWER DEVELOPMENT 1G5 182. Fig.…
