Why are diesel generators more popular than gasoline generators

With the progress of society, the rapid development of economy, economic construction and social life. The demand for electricity is higher and higher. A power outage of one hour or even a few minutes can cause unpredictable damage to factories, businesses, shopping malls, etc. Therefore, as a standby emergency power supply, gasoline generator sets are of great use. Gasoline generator equipment ensures the basic demand for electricity. Their contribution to the nation's electricity is unquestionable, but many users will wonder, why not choose petrol generators?


One,diesel generator sets have the following advantages:


1. Fuel economy, high thermal efficiency, under the change of working conditions, the change of fuel consumption rate curve is relatively flat, low load is also economic


2. Reliable and durable. Failure is low because there is no ignition system


3. Wide range of use


4. Low harmful emissions


5. Good fire safety


Two, diesel generator set characteristics:


1. The capacity level of a single machine is large. Units from several kilowatts - tens of thousands of kilowatts, the largest domestic units thousands of kilowatts


2. Supporting equipment compact structure, flexible installation site (water cooling as long as 34-82L/KWH steam turbine 1/10)


3. High thermal efficiency, low fuel consumption (thermal efficiency 30-46%)


4. Diesel generator start time generally only needs a few seconds, in the emergency state class in 1 minute with full load, indicating that the start quickly, and can quickly reach full power, diesel generator shutdown process is also very short, can frequently start and stop. So diesel generator sets are very suitable for emergency or standby power supply


5. Simple maintenance operation, less people, easy maintenance during standby


6. The construction of diesel generator sets and the lowest comprehensive cost of power generation gasoline generator efficiency is low, with the same quality of gasoline engine generated electricity is less than the same quality of diesel generator.


In addition, if diesel is compared with gasoline, the price of gasoline is high, and the price of gasoline is higher than the price of diesel for the same volume. Who is not the god of wealth, saving money is the hard truth. Furthermore, the density of gasoline is different from that of diesel. They smell different. Diesel is heavier and more oily. Diesel vaporizes much more slowly than gasoline, and in fact its boiling point is much higher than that of water. Because diesel is heavier, it evaporates slowly. It contains more and longer chains of carbon atoms than gasoline. There is less refining to produce diesel, so it is cheaper than gasoline. To sum up, why people prefer diesel generator sets.
