The difference between gasoline generators and diesel generators

The difference between gasoline generator and Diesel Generator Yangzhou Shengfeng Power Equipment Factory / 2018-11-12

In our daily life, we often hear two different engine equipments, diesel engine and gasoline engine. From the literal meaning, we can easily understand that the main difference between diesel engine and gasoline engine is that one uses diesel as fuel and the other uses gasoline as fuel. . But if you explain at a deep level, you may be stumped by some netizens. So today we will give a detailed introduction to these two different models, and let netizens know that the real difference between diesel and gasoline engines is those.

Diesel Generators and gasoline generators have significant differences in other respects besides the fuel used. Below we will give you a detailed introduction to these differences.

Gasoline generators use gasoline as a fuel. Gasoline has a strong flammability and volatility. It is ignited by a spark plug and then expanded. Therefore, the gasoline generator has a strong explosive force in the workmanship, and the work time is short and the volume is small. Therefore, gasoline generators are often used in small cars. It is difficult to see in large construction machinery or large transport vehicles.

There is a significant difference between diesel generator sets and gasoline generators. First of all, diesel generators use diesel as fuel, and the low-speed output of diesel engines is much larger than that of gasoline engines, which is one of the main willingness to use diesel engines as power in large construction machinery. At the same time, the life of diesel generators is much higher than that of gasoline generators. The thermal effect of combustion is 30% higher than that of gasoline engines , but the volume is larger than that of ordinary gasoline engines. Therefore, our common large trucks and large construction machinery and diesel generator sets use diesel engines instead of gasoline engines.

The specific summary is as follows .

1. The structure of the two is basically the same, and the required fuel is different. The calorific value of diesel is relatively high, and gasoline is relatively tidy in comparison.

2. The power is different. The same as burning a diesel car, the minimum power of a diesel generator set is eight kilowatts, up to two million watts, and the maximum power of the same volume of gasoline can only reach ten kilowatts.

3. Ignition type. In the cylinder of a gasoline engine, a mixture of fuel and air is ignited with a spark plug. In a diesel engine, the mixture is ignited by the heat generated by compression.

4. Different volume. The gasoline engine is small in size and easy to handle, and is suitable for mobile power supply.

5. Mixing of fuel and air. In a gasoline engine, fuel and air are mixed in a carburetor and an intake duct. In a diesel engine, the mixing of fuel and air is performed after the diesel is drawn into the cylinder.

6. The main uses are different. Diesel engines are mainly used for industrial power supply, and gasoline engines are generally used in households.
