Necessary knowledge of diesel generator industry

Diesel generator set is now more and more widely used, but how many understand the generator set? Specialty, diesel generator industry must understand the knowledge! Today, small editor to tell you what is ac, what is active power, what is damping coil, what is current-carrying capacity, what is amperes, what is generator set apparent power, what is base load, what is black start, what is generator set current transformer.

1. Communication

Alternating current is a current that changes between positive and negative values at a specific frequency, usually 50 or 60 Hertz. China’s power frequency is 50Hz.

2. Active power

Active power (kW) refers to the power actually supplied by the generator set to the load. It is provided by the engine of the generator set and is limited by the horsepower of the engine. Heating and driving motor rotation is accomplished by active power.

3. Damping coil

The damping coil of synchronous ac generator refers to the wires embedded between the magnetic poles of the rotor. They are connected by end rings or end plates at the poles respectively. The main function is to reduce the waveform distortion caused by load changes.

4. Current carrying capacity

Current carrying capacity is defined as the current carrying capacity of a wire in amperes.

5. Ampere

The ampere is a unit of electric current. A voltage of 1 volt applied to a resistance of 1 ohm produces a current of 1 ampere.

6.Apparent power

Apparent power is the product of both current and voltage and is expressed by kVA. It is equal to the active power (kW) divided by the power factor.

7. Base load

Base load is the constant part of the building load demand, which constitutes the base of the load demand curve.

8.Black start

A black start is a start that relies on the internal power supply of the system instead of external power.

9. Current transformer

Current transformers are instrument transformers that are usually used in conjunction with ammeters, control circuits, and protective relays.
