Reasons for Engine Insulation Fault Discharge

There are various reasons for the insulation fault discharge of the motor set, which can also cause the generator set to malfunction. Below, Starlight Power Generation Equipment will provide a detailed introduction to the reasons for the insulation failure and discharge of the   generator set engine . Firstly, during the manufacturing process of motor coils, due to technological reasons, air gaps may occur between the edge layers or between the insulation layer and the strand wire. If the voltage between the air gaps reaches the breakdown voltage of the gap during the operation of the motor, fault discharge will occur. Moreover, as the motor runs for longer, the insulation layer will further deteriorate under various stresses such as heat, electricity, machinery, and environment, ultimately leading to insulation layer cracking Peeling, loosening of slot wedges, and loss of functionality of semiconductor strip coatings; Secondly, when transient overvoltage occurs in the power system...

Reasons for Steam Emission of The Diesel Generator Sets

Reasons for The Power Reduction During Generator Set Operation

  It has been known from the working process of the diesel engine of the generator set that the diesel fuel is injected into the cylinder and mixed with the hot air, and then ignites and burns to generate power. Therefore, the horsepower of the diesel engine is naturally related to the amount of air and the amount of diesel it can burn. In this article, Starlight Power Generation Equipment will introduce it in detail. At high altitudes, due to the decrease in atmospheric pressure, the air density decreases, and the weight of the air drawn into the cylinders of the  generator set  is correspondingly reduced, which limits the amount of diesel that can be burned, and the horsepower decreases. For the same reason, the high temperature and humidity of the air will also reduce the horsepower of the diesel engine of the generator set. Therefore, the use of diesel engines in different regions, or under different atmospheric conditions in the same region, should consider this...

What Causes of Generator Rotating Rectifier Failure?

What is the function of rotating rectifier of diesel generator set?   Rotating rectifier is a device which rotates coaxially with AC exciter. Its main function is to convert the three-phase AC excitation current output by the armature of the AC exciter into the DC current through the diode on the rectifier, supply the rotor winding as the power supply for the excitation current. It is because of the application of rotating rectifier that the AC synchronous generator gets rid of the binding of brush, no longer has the trouble of frequent maintenance and replacement of parts, and also makes the application of the AC synchronous generator more extensive. Some rotating rectifiers of AC synchronous generators are installed on the outside of the AC exciter and fixed on the shaft with screws for easy installation and maintenance. Some rotating rectifiers of generators are installed on the inner side of the rear end cover and directly fixed on the bolts protruding from the armature...

Wear and Solution to Piston Parts

1.Wear of piston ring groove   The piston ring moves in the ring groove, so that the piston ring groove is subject to the maximum wear in the height direction, so that it becomes a ladder or trapezoid. The main reason of wear is the unit pressure of piston ring on the groove wall and the influence of high temperature. The wear rate of ring groove depends on the roughness of piston ring plane and the structure of piston to a great extent.   Solutions: When the wear of the piston ring groove is widened and the side clearance of the piston ring is greater than the specified allowable value, the piston ring groove can be turned on the lathe according to the enlarged piston ring.   2.Wear of piston pin seat hole   The wear of piston pin seat hole is generally smaller than that of piston ring groove. The wear rate depends on the roughness of piston pin hole and the fit between piston pin and pin hole. Due to the action of gas pressure and inertia force, the...

Single Generator or Paralleling Generator for Big Power Generator?

Buying A Single Generator Vs. Paralleling If your power needs are large enough, you may wonder whether it’s better to go with a single, huge diesel generator, or split the burden between two or more smaller generators. For example, instead of a 1200kW generator , you could install three 400kW generators. This is called paralleling, and it can be a great option in the right circumstances. Here’s why: 1. Greater flexibility. It’s very likely the reason you’re buying a generator at all is the additional reliability, a hedge against an interrupted power supply causing a slowdown or halt to your business’s operations. With multiple generators, you don’t have to worry if one has to be shut down for maintenance. You simply shift the burden to the others and keep right on working.   With just one generator, if it has to stop, so do you.   2. Can be more cost-effective. Obviously the economics will vary widely depending on brands, new vs. used generators, prices in your geo...

Should I Choose Diesel Generator or Gasoline Generator

Diesel generator is a diesel engine that drives the generator to convert the energy of the diesel into electrical energy. The gasoline generator is a gasoline engine that drives the generator to convert the energy of the gasoline into electrical energy. The following is a detailed introduction to the difference between the two. Working principle of diesel generator In the cylinder of the diesel engine, the clean air filtered by the air filter is fully mixed with the high pressure atomized diesel fuel injected from the injector. Under the upward extrusion of the piston, the volume is reduced and the temperature is rapidly increased to reach the ignition point of the diesel. The diesel is ignited, the mixed gas burns violently, the volume expands rapidly, and the piston is pushed down, which is called work. Each cylinder performs work in a certain order, and the thrust acting on the piston passes through the connecting rod to become a force that pushes the crankshaft to rotat...

Effect of Wrong Operation on Diesel Generator

Diesel generator set works at poor diesel oil In this conditions, the oil supply of each friction pair surface will be poor due to poor oil supply, it will result in abnormal wear or burn. Therefore, we should ensure enough diesel oil before start up and during the operation of the unit. After cold start, step on the accelerator sharply If the accelerator is slammed, the speed of the diesel engine will increase sharply, which will cause some friction surfaces on the engine to wear violently due to dry friction. Besides, the acceptance force of piston, connecting rod and crankshaft changes greatly, which will cause severe impact and easily damages the parts. Emergency stop the unit with load or suddenly stop after load removal After the diesel generator flameout, the circulation of cooling water stops, the cooling capacity decreases sharply, and the heated parts lose cooling, which easily causes overheating of cylinder head, cylinder sleeve, cylinder block and ot...
