Knowledge of The Turbocharged Iintercooler System of Shangchai Generators

In the turbo - charged and inter - cooled system of a diesel generator, when the air is compressed during the turbo - charging process, its temperature and pressure increase simultaneously. Without inter - cooling, the intake air density is limited by the adiabatic efficiency of the compressor. When the diesel engine is highly turbo - charged with a large pressure ratio, the inter - cooling technology can be used to increase the intake air density. Therefore, being familiar with the knowledge of the turbo - charged and inter - cooled system, which is a basic component of the Shangchai generator, is crucial for the later use, maintenance, and upkeep of the generator set. The editor of Dingbo Power will share relevant professional knowledge about the turbo - charged and inter - cooled system of the generator set to help everyone use the diesel generator more easily. Composition of the exhaust system of YC12VC series generator diesel engines The exhaust system of YC12VC series generator...

Why Should Avoid Long-term Idling of Diesel Generator Sets?

As a backup or main power source, the stability and reliability of diesel generator sets are directly crucial to the proper operation of electrical equipment. However, long-term idling operation (i.e., the genset running at low speed for extended periods under no load or low load conditions) can cause significant damage to its performance, lifespan, and operational efficiency. This mode of operation not only contradicts the design intent of diesel engines but may also trigger a series of chain reactions leading to faults, increasing maintenance costs and the risk of downtime. Potential risks of long-time idling of diesel generators   1. Thermal stress damage: Component overheating leading to cracks or seizure   Cooling system failure After the diesel generator set is shut down, the circulation of cooling water stops immediately, and the heat dissipation capacity drops sharply. At this point, heated components such as the cylinder head, cylinder liner, and...

How to Debug The Fuel Pump of The Generator Set?

The generator fuel pump is the "heart" of the engine's fuel supply system. It is a device that continuously draws fuel from the fuel tank and provides the fuel system with fuel at a specified pressure and flow rate. Based on the functions of the generator fuel pump, it can be known that the performance of the fuel pump will directly affect the working performance of the engine. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out corresponding preparatory work before using the fuel pump. To ensure the normal use of the generator, debugging the fuel pump is the primary preparatory work. We must install and debug it on a dedicated test bench according to the fuel pump calibration data sheet. Currently, the flowmeter method is mostly used, and the specific steps are as follows: Preparation before debugging The fuel pump and injector have been debugged on the test bench. The generator is in good technical condition and has entered the hot - running state. The fuel pump is correctly co...

Diesel Generator Sets in High-Altitude Oxygen Deficiency Condition

When diesel generator sets operate in high-altitude regions, their performance is significantly affected by environmental characteristics such as thin air, reduced atmospheric pressure, and large temperature variations. To adapt to these special conditions, comprehensive adjustments are required in design, configuration, maintenance, and operation. The specific adaptation measures and their principles are as follows: 1. Diesel generator intake system optimization: Compensating for thin air Turbocharging technology: At high altitudes, the decrease in air density leads to insufficient intake air and incomplete combustion. Turbochargers compress the intake air, increasing its density and ensuring the engine receives adequate oxygen, partially offsetting the power loss associated with rising altitude. For example, power decreases by approximately 8%–12% for every 1,000 meters of altitude gain. Intercooler configuration: After turbocharging, the air temperature rises, causing it to expand a...

Core Components and Design Essentials of Generator Set Exhaust Systems

As a universal component, the diesel generator exhaust pipe plays a crucial role in discharging waste gas and smoke in many generator sets. A well-designed exhaust system ensures that the waste gas and smoke generated during the operation of the generator set are effectively discharged outdoors, thereby minimizing impact on the surrounding environment and the work and life of residents. The design of a generator set exhaust system must comprehensively consider factors such as exhaust efficiency, safety, environmental protection, and equipment lifespan. Main components of the diesel generator exhaust system 1. Exhaust Pipe Material: Typically made of carbon steel or stainless steel, requiring high temperature and corrosion resistance. Structure: Includes straight pipes, elbows, tees, etc., requiring a rational layout to minimize resistance. Insulation: High-temperature exhaust pipes require insulation layers to prevent heat loss and burn risks. 2. Muffler Function: Reduces exhaust noise...
