TITLE JUMP

Generator is a mechanical device that converts other forms of energy into electrical energy. It is driven by diesel engines, water turbines, steam turbines or other power machinery, and converts the energy generated by water flow, air flow, fuel combustion or nuclear fission into mechanical energy and transmits it to the generator. , And then converted into electrical energy by a generator. Generators are widely used in industrial and agricultural production, national defense, science and technology and daily life. Generator is called "electric ball" in the professional term of this industry.

Generator set is a kind of power generation equipment that can convert mechanical energy or other renewable energy into electrical energy, mainly composed of a generator and an engine. In general, our common generator sets are usually driven by steam turbines, water turbines or internal combustion engines (gasoline, diesel engines, etc.). Renewable new energy includes nuclear energy, wind energy, solar energy, biomass energy, ocean energy, etc. The generator set is actually composed of an engine and an electric ball ( The generator set can be called a "generator set" after it becomes a complete set of power generation equipment. The principle of a generator set is to drive the rotor of the electric ball through the engine head to generate electric current, and then go through a series of transformations, and finally Output the current.

According to the power source, generator sets can be divided into diesel generators, gas generators, gasoline generators, wind generators, solar generators, hydroelectric generators, coal-fired generators, etc. Due to the large capacity of the diesel generator set, it can be operated in parallel with a long continuous power supply time, and can also be operated independently. It does not operate in parallel with the regional power grid, and is not affected by power grid failures and has high reliability. Especially when the mains power is not very reliable in some areas, the diesel generator set can be used as a backup power source, which can not only play the role of emergency power source, but also through the reasonable optimization of the low-voltage system, some of the more important loads at ordinary times can be cut off. Therefore, it is widely used in engineering.
