Difference between Centrifugal governor and Homeostasis

Centrifugal governor vs. Homeostasis

A centrifugal governor is a specific type of governor with a feedback system that controls the speed of an engine by regulating the amount of fuel (or working fluid) admitted, so as to maintain a near-constant speed, irrespective of the load or fuel-supply conditions. Homeostasis is the tendency of organisms to auto-regulate and maintain their internal environment in a stable state.

Similarities between Centrifugal governor and Homeostasis

Centrifugal governor and Homeostasis have 3 things in common (in Unionpedia): Cybernetics, James Watt, Steam engine.

Cybernetics

Cybernetics is a transdisciplinary approach for exploring regulatory systems—their structures, constraints, and possibilities.
