What are the uses of gas generators


What are the uses of a gas generator? A gas generator is a kind of power generation equipment. Its working principle is that the engine burns gas, heat energy is converted into mechanical energy, and the rotation of the generator drives the cutting magnetic field of the generator, and finally electricity is generated. What are its main uses?

First, self-provided power supply. Some power users do not have network power supply, such as islands far away from the mainland, remote pastoral areas, rural areas, and barracks, workstations,

and radar stations in desert plateaus. They need to be equipped with their own power sources. The so-called self-supplied power supply is a self-generated power supply. When the power generation is not too large, a gas generator set is often one of the options for self-supplied power.

Second, standby power supply. The main purpose is that although some electricity users have relatively stable and reliable grid power supply, in order to prevent unexpected situations, such as circuit failures or temporary power outages, they can still be configured as emergency power generation and power users. Generally, the requirements for power supply security are relatively high, and even power outages of one minute and one second are not allowed. Self-emergency standby power generation must be used to replace the power supply at the moment when the network power is terminated,

otherwise it will cause major losses in the district. Such units include some traditional high-power supply guarantee units, such as hospitals, mines, power plants, and factories that use electric heating equipment. In recent years, network power has become a new growth point in the demand for backup power, such as telecommunications operators, banks, Airports, command centers, databases, highways, high-grade hotel and office buildings, high-end restaurants and entertainment venues, etc., due to the use of networked management, these units are increasingly becoming the main body of backup power use.

Third, alternative power supply. The role of alternative power supply is to make up for the lack of network power supply. There may be two situations. One is that the price of grid power is too high. From the perspective of cost saving, gas generators are selected as alternative power sources. The other is that when grid power is insufficient, the use of grid power is restricted, and the power supply department has to pull everywhere. The power supply is cut off. At this time, the electricity user needs to replace the power supply to provide relief in order to produce and work normally. In recent years, China’ s

gas-fired generator set products have experienced several hot sales in the market, such as the national hot sales in the first half of the 1980s, the hot sales in South China in the early 1990s, and the hot sales in East China from 2003 to 2004, all due to national and Due to the regional power shortage, in order to cope with the large-scale power cuts, various power users have purchased gas generator sets as alternative power sources.

Fourth, mobile power. Mobile power is a power generation facility that has no fixed place of use, but is transferred everywhere. Gas generator sets have become the first choice for mobile power sources due to their lightness, flexibility and ease of operation. Mobile power sources are generally designed as power-powered vehicles, including self-powered vehicles and trailer-powered vehicles. Most of the power consumers that use mobile power have the nature of mobile work, such as oil fields, geological prospecting, field engineering exploration, camping picnics, mobile command

posts, trains, ships, freight containers, power compartments (warehouses), and mobile military weapons Equipped with power supplies, some mobile power supplies have the nature of emergency power supplies, such as emergency power supply vehicles of urban power supply departments, engineering rescue vehicles and emergency repair vehicles of water supply and gas supply departments.

Fifth, fire power supply. Fire-fighting generator sets are mainly used for building fire-fighting equipment. Once a fire occurs, the mains power is cut off, and the generators are the power source for fire-fighting equipment. With the spread of fire protection laws, domestic real estate fire-fighting power supplies will be A very large market with huge potential for development.
