See the IMPORTANT note also !This mechanism is a replica of the system used in controlling the movable guide vanes in hydraulic turbines other than impulse. The vanes control the direction and flow quantity of the water at inlet of the turbines. The actuating system is also modeled. No need of motion study. Just hold down mouse at the actuator shown in pink and move it slowly to see the vanes moving and directing the flow direction.This is only an illustrative model. It might not match with the real thing.Important Note - This is a big assembly file. You will need the single part files for loading the assembly. I have included the folder of parts. When you open the window for loading the assembly, go to references tab and define the location of the part files wherever you save them.
