Assembly of Exhaust Gas Turbocharger for Diesel Generator Set Part 2

Continuing from the previous text, we will introduce to diesel generator users how the exhaust turbocharger of a diesel generator set is assembled.


diesel engine


7. Apply clean engine oil to the shaft seal that has been installed with an elastic sealing ring, and then install it into the corresponding seat hole on the compressor end air seal plate. Before installation, offset the opening positions of the two rings by 180 degrees, and insert the "o" - shaped rubber sealing ring into the groove on the outer circumference of the compressor air seal plate. In order to facilitate pressing into the middle shell, apply some thin engine oil to the outer surface of the rubber sealing ring, and then press it into the middle shell body.

 

8. After aligning the dynamic balance marks on the rotor and compressor impeller, put on the compressor impeller, screw on the self-locking nut and tighten it until it aligns with the dynamic balance mark on the shaft end face [the tightening torque at this time is 39-44N. m (4-4.5kgf. m)], and do not allow the compressor impeller to rotate relative to the shaft during tightening (if the compressor impeller cannot be smoothly inserted into the shaft, it can be immersed in boiling water and heated before inserting).

 

9. Remove the finished assembly from the vise and install it into the bladeless volute according to the original markings. Be careful not to tilt during assembly to avoid damaging the top part of the turbine blades. Then install the pressure plate and stop washer at the end of the drum, tighten the hex nut (tightening torque is 39N. m (4kgf. m)), and lock the stop washer with 8 nuts.

 

10. Align the compressor housing with the mark and install it into the middle housing. Before assembly, insert the "v" - shaped clamp into the middle housing and be careful not to tilt it during assembly to avoid damaging the top part of the compressor impeller blades from the foot arc of the compressor housing. Install the "v" - shaped clamp and tighten the bolt with a tightening torque of 14.7N-m (1.5kgf-m).

 

After injecting clean engine oil into the oil inlet hole of the middle shell, the impeller should rotate flexibly by hand, and the well should be carefully monitored to check for any collision or rubbing sounds.

 

After the final assembly, the following two items should be measured.

 

1. To measure the axial movement of the turbine compressor rotor, place the iron suction gauge seat with a dial gauge on the flange plane at the outlet of the volute, place the measuring rod end of the dial gauge on the hexagonal shoulder plane at the outlet of the turbine impeller, and then manually push and pull the rotor shaft to measure the maximum axial movement, which should be less than 0 If the value exceeds 25mm, further inspection of various components such as thrust bearings and thrust plates should be carried out. This method can be used for measuring when the turbocharger is already installed in the unit.

 

2. For the radial clearance of the compressor, use your fingers to press the self-locking nut on the rotor shaft from the radial direction, and then measure the minimum clearance between the compressor impeller blades and the compressor casing with a thickness gauge. This clearance should be greater than 0.15mm. If it is less than this value, it should be disassembled and inspected. Be careful not to damage the blades on the impeller during inspection. This method can also be performed on units that have already installed a turbocharger.

Diesel Generator Power Ratings: Standby vs Prime vs Continuous

Diesel generator sets are commonly used in a variety of sectors due to their dependable performance and high efficiency. They can be used for emergency power supply in the event of a power cut or used in places without connection to a power grid. When selecting a diesel generator for your home or business, you need to consider many factors, such as generator’s ratings. In this article, we’ll explain the three basic rating types - standby, prime, and continuous in diesel generators. ISO-8528-1:2018 defines basic generator set rating categories based on four operational categories: Emergency Standby Power (ESP), Prime Power (PRP), Continuous Power (COP) and Limited-Time Running Prime (LTP). Read on and learn the application of power ratings for engines used in generating sets. Standby Power Rating Standby Power(ESP) is used to supply emergency power when the external power supply is interrupted, such as power outages. Standby power rated generators can supply reliable electricity as t...

How to Choose a Household Mini Generator

With the improvement of people's living standards, there are more and more household appliances, such as rice cookers, microwaves, kettles, refrigerators, air - conditioners, washing machines, etc. It can be said that every household has them. But what if there is a power outage? These appliances won't work properly, and our lives will be greatly disrupted. How can we avoid this? We can use household mini - generators to provide convenience in power consumption. So, how to choose a good household mini - generator? Consider the noise level Since it is for household use, when choosing a household mini - generator, we need to check whether the noise will affect the neighbors. Generally, the seller will demonstrate the performance of the generator in advance. A good household generator can reduce noise by about 80%. Choose a generator with a moderate price Due to different brands, there are significant differences in power, and consequently, the price differences of househ...

How to Choose Efficient Diesel Generators for the Film and Television Industry?

In the film and television industry, the stability of the electricity supply during filming is crucial. Whether the equipment are the cameras or the lighting equipment on the filming site, or the post-production equipment, they all need stable and reliable power support. Unstable or interrupted power can result in interrupted filming, damage to equipment, and even affecting the progress and quality of the entire project. Therefore, investing in high-efficiency diesel generator sets has become an important measure for the film and television industry to ensure the reliable power supply for shooting. Determine the power requirements Before choosing a diesel generator set for the film and television industry, it’s necessary to figure out the total power needs, including the electricity demand of the shooting location, the total power of the electrical equipment and the time of using electricity. Also consider whether there are special needs for the generators such as low noise level and...
