  • In this video, we will learn to calculate per hour fuel consumption of diesel generator (10kVA to 1000KVA) at various load level i.e. 100%, 75%, 50%, & 40%. An obvious question when looking at buying a diesel generator is, how much fuel do they consume? Generator has a fixed RPM so we can work out how much fuel they will use across various load levels approximately? Actual usage may vary due to a number of factors so specific calculation method of the fuel consumption of diesel genset from capacity 10kVA to 1000kVA as under;
    Most generator manufacturers use G/kWh as parameters, which mean how many grams (G) of oil the Genset consumes per kilowatt per hour? & then change unit to liters (L) to know that you are an hour Fuel consumption costs.
    Generally, the fuel consumption of diesel genset is calculated according to 0.2-0.26kg/kWh. One liter of diesel is about 0.84-0.86 kg. Then 1KW per hour is 0.2-0.26kg divided by 0.84 = 0.238 liters-0.3 liters, multiplied by kilowatts equals to fuel consumption per hour.
    So Genset consumes 0.26 Litres of diesel per kWh produced considering frictional losses & other factors.

    Hello. How did you get the 0.26 liter diesel consumption factor. Please give that calculation as well. Thanks in advance

    • @mechanicalengineeringpract140
      @mechanicalengineeringpract140  2 місяці тому

      Consumption factor is based on types of DG, , oem coupling, connected load , RPM, frequency and especially hands on experience. It is also validated by one of well reputed DG manufacturers after watching my video which confirmed their product tech specs

    If I run a 20kva diesel generator at 0%, does it use more or less fuel?

    • @mechanicalengineeringpract140
      @mechanicalengineeringpract140  6 місяців тому

      It will be run in underload which is not recommended due to more torque required. Less 40% is underload consuming high fuel and more than 75% is overload, will also consume more fuel so safer range is 40% to 75% load on genset in term of efficient fuel consumption and also to avoid erosion in moving n mating parts of dg

      20 rpm NAHI hota. DG normal RPM are 1500 and high upto 1800.
      It can control from AVR by resitting frequency at 50HZ if is is not adjusted to desire rpm, pls check governor functioning and also check fuel injection system thoroughly and calibrate if required. oil pump malfunctioning also shows this problem, check rotor chrome of pump as well

      85kVA DG will consume fuel as follows
      17.68lires at full load
      13.26litres at 75% load
      8.84 litres at 50% load

    • @mechanicalengineeringpract140
      @mechanicalengineeringpract140  7 місяців тому

      It is not recommended to use any Genset on 20% load. safer range is 40% to 75% connected load on Genset and fuel consumption will be calculated as described in video.
      At 20% load, generator will run on underload ,will produce more torque resulting more fuel consumption as per recommended factor of 0.26

    • @mechanicalengineeringpract140

      Torque load is increased when we operate DG underload at less than 40%. In this case DG takes definitely high fuel than recommended

      @@mechanicalengineeringpract140What is the main reason for low consumption of diesel fuel?

    • @mechanicalengineeringpract140
      @mechanicalengineeringpract140  6 місяців тому

      There are many factors involved for less fuel consumption
      1. DG working with in safe operating range i.e. 40% to 75% load. Beyond this range, will result more fuel consumption, erosion in moving parts etc.
      2. Calibration of fuel injection system when required
      3. Timely oil change as per recommended frequency of particular DG whatever it is.
      4. Balanced connected load on three phases. Unbalanced connected load like phase one-100A, phase two-140A, phase three-90Amp which is not recommended so all phases load should be equally distributed like phase one=100Amp, phase two=100Amp, phase three= 100Amp
      5. DG consume engine oil due to eroded rings, pistons,liners, valves etc. so DG should be got top end or major overhaul depending upon requirements

    You are referring to assumption the DG is 100% efficient. If let says it is only 80% generating energy, then 0.26 liters / 0.8=0.325 liters per kWh. What it says, it consume more diesel just to produce 1 kWh electricity. Unless your 0.26 liter per kWh has already accounted for inefficiency. Load is only talking about how long it runs, not efficiency

    • @mechanicalengineeringpract140
      @mechanicalengineeringpract140  2 місяці тому

      I m not saying here that dg is 100% efficient. FOS of any machine is 20% as per gep. Dg assemler designs it on 100% load. But keeping overload n underload norms, it is more efficient at 75% load considering all balanced loads on three phases.
      It is just like the Car having 240KMH meter, cannot run on 240KMH constantly.
      So watch again this video carefully where at the end i addressed such issue
