728KW 910KVA Low-noise Diesel Generator

1. Diesel Generator Introduction

A diesel generator (DG) (also known as a diesel Generator Set) is a combination of a diesel engine and a generator (usually an alternator) used to produce electrical energy.

Diesel generator sizing is critical to minimizing low loads or power shortages. Due to the characteristics of modern electronic products, especially non-linear loads, selection becomes complicated. In the size range around 50 MW and above, open cycle gas turbines are more efficient and more compact than an array of diesel engines at full load, with comparable capital costs; but for regular part loads, even at these power levels, an array of diesel engines Also sometimes preferred over open cycle gas turbines due to their superior efficiency.

2. Diesel generator set Introduction

A complete set consisting of a diesel engine, generator and various ancillary devices (such as base, canopy, muffler, control system, circuit breaker, water jacket water heater, starting system) is called a "generator set" or "generator set". Referred to as "generator set".

Unit sizes ranging from 8 to 30 kW (also 8 to 30 kVA single-phase) are suitable for homes, small shops and offices, while large industrial generators from 8 kW (11 kVA) to 2,000 kW (3-phase 2,500 kVA) are used in office buildings, factories and other industrial facilities. The 2,000 kW unit can be installed in a 40 ft (12 m) ISO container and is equipped with fuel tanks, controls, power distribution equipment and all other equipment required to operate as an independent power station or grid backup power source. These units, called power modules, are generator sets on large three-axle trailers weighing 85,000 pounds (38,555 kilograms) or more. Combinations of these modules are used in small power stations, which may use from 1 to 20 units per power section, which can be combined to involve hundreds of power modules. In these larger sizes, power plants. There are also many options to suit specific needs, including control panels for automatic start and mains paralleling, acoustic enclosures for fixed or mobile applications, ventilation, fuel supply systems, exhaust systems and more.

3.Application scope of diesel generator set

Diesel generator sets are used in locations not connected to the grid or as emergency power in the event of grid failure, as well as in more complex applications such as peak shaving, grid support and export to the grid. Diesel generators are not only used for emergency power, but can also have an auxiliary function of supplying power to the utility grid during peak hours or during large generator shortages.

Ships also often use diesel generators, sometimes not only to provide auxiliary power for lights, fans, winches, etc., but also indirectly for main propulsion. With electric propulsion, generators can be placed in convenient locations to carry more cargo. Electric drives for ships were developed before World War I. Many warships built during World War II were specified with electric drives because the manufacturing capacity for large reduction gears was in short supply compared to the manufacturing capacity for electrical equipment. [1] This diesel-electric device is also used in some very large land vehicles, such as railways and locomotives.
