ENERGY-EFFICIENT GENERATOR STRUCTURE

Abstract

The invention relates to an energy-efficient diesel or gas-fired generator configuration that uses a block water heater (pot tank) and circulation pump connected simultaneously to ensure homogeneous heat distribution within the engine jacket and to prevent unnecessary heating of parts outside the engine jacket, instead of continuously running circulation pumps as is the case under the known state of the art.

Description

1 TARIFF ENERGY-EFFICIENT GENERATOR STRUCTURE TECHNICAL FIELD The invention describes a continuously operating circulation system (circulation) under the prior art. Instead of running the pumps continuously, it provides homogeneous heat distribution in the motor jacket. to ensure that the parts of the motorcycle jacket are not unnecessarily heated. to prevent this, with a block water heater (pot tank) that operates and stops simultaneously. an energy-efficient diesel or gas-fired system with a circulation pump connection. It relates to the generator configuration. 10 PREVIOUS TECHNIQUE Diesel and gas-fueled engines used in generator sets convert mechanical energy. These are internal combustion engines that generate electrical energy by transmitting it to a generator shaft. Basically... These engines, which have similar operating principles, differ in the type of fuel they use and combustion. They exhibit distinct characteristics due to differences in their processes. Diesel engines have a compression ignition system. The operating cycle... During this process, only air is drawn into the engine cylinder, and this air pushes the piston upwards. It is compressed by this movement. As a result of compression, the temperature of the air rises considerably. Diesel fuel is injected into this high-temperature air via the fuel system. 20 Diesel fuel ignites spontaneously due to the high temperature inside the cylinder, causing combustion. It performs this function. The pressure created by the gases produced during combustion pushes the piston down. It pushes in the right direction, thus rotating the crankshaft and providing mechanical energy. Diesel engines generally characterized by its ability to generate high torque, durability, and long-term performance under heavy loads. It is known for its job advantages. 25 In gas-fired engines, gaseous fuels such as natural gas, LPG, or biogas are used. These engines are used and have a spark ignition system. During operation, air is drawn in. The gas-fuel mixture is drawn into the engine's cylinder and compressed by the piston's action. The mixture reaches high pressure. The compressed mixture is released through the spark plug. It is ignited by a spark. The combustion resulting from the ignition pushes the piston downwards, and 30 The crankshaft is rotated, and energy is transmitted to the generator shaft. Gas engines are environmentally friendly. They offer advantages such as being smaller, producing lower emissions, and operating more quietly. 2 In both engine types, the upward and downward movement of the pistons is transmitted to the crankshaft. This movement rotates the generator shaft, producing electrical energy. The motors... The type of generator is determined based on the area where it will be used and the energy needs. The healthy operation of diesel or gas-fueled engines found in generator sets. For the engine and generator to function and handle the initial load, 5 According to information provided by the manufacturers, the jacket's water temperature before starting the engine... The minimum temperature must be +40°C or higher. The jacket is for cylinders in engines. consisting of channels or reservoirs surrounding the block through which the coolant circulates. It is a structure used to control the heat generated during engine operation. and prevents the engine from overheating, ensuring it operates at optimum temperature. Jacket 10 The liquid inside is usually a mixture of antifreeze and water, and it allows heat to be transferred out of the engine. It facilitates the healthy operation of engines and generators. The jacket water temperature must be maintained. The minimum temperature before starting the engine is +40°C or higher, which is important for engine performance and longevity. This is a critical requirement for its long service life. Maintaining this temperature level is essential. both ensuring the engine can safely handle the initial load and minimizing wear. and aims to minimize the risk of damage. The main reason for keeping the jacket water temperature above +40°C is to protect the engine. The goal is to bring the moving parts and fuel system inside the vehicle to optimal operating conditions. At low temperatures, engine oil becomes more viscous and does not adequately supply moving parts. It cannot reach that speed quickly. This situation affects the crankshaft, pistons, and 20, especially during starting. This leads to wear and premature deterioration in critical components such as bearings. Furthermore, diesel... Low temperatures in engines prevent proper atomization of fuel, which... irregular combustion, delayed engine starting, or while running This can cause it to operate with vibrations. Problems can also arise in the fuel injection system under low temperature conditions. 25 This can occur, especially with the condensation of diesel fuel in cold weather or the formation of paraffin crystals. This can lead to a blockage in the injection system. This can cause the engine to malfunction completely. This can cause it to not work or, even if it works, to produce insufficient power. Gas In their engines, the low temperature ensures the proper formation of the air-fuel mixture. This makes it difficult and causes the spark plug to ignite inefficiently. 30 Another major problem is the sudden temperature increase of the engine block and cooling system components. It can be damaged by changes in the engine. This occurs as a result of sudden combustion in a cold engine. 3 The resulting high temperature differences increase the risk of cracks forming in the engine block and cylinder heads. It increases emissions. Also, engines operating at lower temperatures generally produce more emissions. Because the combustion process cannot be completed, this results in the release of harmful gases into the environment. increases. In conclusion, the jacket water temperature of +40°C specified by engine and generator manufacturers is 5 to prevent engine wear, improve fuel efficiency and ensure the engine starts properly. This is a critical measure to ensure reliable performance. Therefore, Especially in cold weather conditions, engine jacket water heaters or heating systems It must be brought to the specified temperature level using [method]. In existing generator sets (average 500 kVA and above), the radiator and potentiometer tank are 10. (block water heater) is important for regulating the engine's cooling and operating temperatures. These are the components. The radiator removes excess heat from the coolant while the engine is running. By facilitating the discharge, it helps the engine operate at optimum temperature. The pot reservoir, on the other hand, Before starting the engine, the jacket water temperature must be adjusted to the desired level (+40°C and above). It heats the water to remove the water. This makes it easier to start the engine's load. This ensures that the power supply is protected and the risk of wear is reduced. In generators of 500 kVA and above, the pot The water heated in the tank is efficiently transferred to the engine jacket, and the engine jacket... To ensure a homogeneous heat distribution, a layer of heat is placed between the radiator and the pot / reservoir. A circulation pump is installed between the water tank and the engine jacket water inlet. This The pump forcibly directs the heated coolant into the engine jacket, thus reducing heat loss. The distribution is evenly distributed throughout the entire engine block. In systems with the known state of the art, the circulation pump is continuously active. The circulation pump being continuously active ensures a constant flow of jacket water. This causes certain areas, other than the motorcycle jacket, to become unnecessary. This causes the water in the jacket to heat up, the heated jacket water to cool down faster, and energy loss. 25 It can open. For example, when the circulation pump is running continuously, the water heated in the pot tank, The heat is quickly transferred from the engine jacket to the radiator. Therefore, it is already heated. Coolant causes faster cooling in the radiator and its components. Additionally, Due to continuous flow, parts outside the engine block, such as the connection near the radiator, The cooling points or peripheral cooling pipes also heat up unnecessarily. This unnecessary heat transfer, 30 to allow the engine and other equipment to cool down faster and to reheat them. This causes the resistance to be restarted. This, in turn, increases the system's energy consumption. It unnecessarily increases the cost. For example, just the engine jacket before starting the engine. 4 While the temperature needs to be raised to +40°C, the circulation pump must be running continuously. This causes the radiator and other surrounding cooling lines to heat up as well. THE PURPOSE OF THE INVENTION The purpose of the invention is to draw electrical power from the power outlet of a block water heater (pot tank) by 5 the area (i.e., connected in series) together with a circulation pump circuit, circulation Instead of the pump running continuously, it only activates when the storage tank is engaged. By operating it within these intervals, both homogeneous heat distribution is ensured in the engine jacket and by preventing unnecessary heating of the parts of the motorcycle jacket that are outside the jacket The aim is to ensure energy efficiency. In this context, the invention converts electrical power into 10 parts of a block water heater. (pot reservoir) containing a circulation pump circuit that takes from the outlet (i.e., connected in series) This relates to generator configurations that include diesel or gas-fueled engines.

Control system DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION In a generator set; radiator (1), generator engine (2) and alternator (3), These are interconnected critical components that ensure the efficient operation of a generator set. A generator engine (2) is an internal combustion engine that produces mechanical energy by burning fuel. It is the engine. The heat generated during this process is used to cool the engine to prevent it from overheating. It is controlled by the system. The radiator (1) is connected to the radiator circuit (5) from the engine. by removing excess heat from the engine's coolant, resulting in a deheated coolant. by returning the fluid from the radiator to the engine via the return circuit (4), the engine's ideal It enables the engine to operate at a certain temperature. The alternator (3) produces mechanical energy from the engine. It converts energy into electrical energy. Thanks to this relationship, the generator set is both reliable and efficient. It also produces electricity efficiently. The radiator (1) is the generator engine (2) while undertaking the cooling task, it also ensures the continuity of the alternator's (3) electricity production. It indirectly supports this. In this context, our invention uses electrical power to power a block water heater. (heater pot reservoir) (7) a circulation pump taken from the power outlet (i.e. connected in series) 10 (6) relates to the generator configuration containing a diesel or gas-fueled engine with circuit 6. In generator sets, usually in the inlet (9) section of the block jacket circuit, There is a heat sensor or thermostat (8). This equipment is part of the generator system. It can also be in any other part. The mentioned equipment (8) has a heat If there is a sensor, the data received from the heat sensor is sent to a control unit containing a processor. The system (10) is constantly monitored and the water circulating in the block jacket circuit is monitored. If the temperature drops below the lower limit of the generator's operating temperature, the heater pot will shut off. (7) The operation is ensured by activating the relay or contactor. Thus, the block jacket until the water circulating in the circuit reaches the ideal generator operating temperature range It is heated. The water circulating in the block jacket circuit is heated to the generator operating temperature (up to 20°C). If it exceeds the limit, the heater pot is again controlled by the control system (10). The operation of the tank is terminated by deactivating its (7) relay or contactor. If the mentioned equipment (8) is a thermostat, then in the block jacket circuit If the circulating water temperature falls below the lower limit of the generator's operating temperature It is detected by the thermostat and the electricity 25 for the operation of the heater pot tank (7) power is provided. Thus, the water circulating in the block jacket circuit becomes the ideal generator. The water is heated until it reaches the operating temperature range. The water circulates in the block jacket circuit. If the temperature exceeds the upper limit of the generator's operating temperature, the thermostat will activate again. It is detected by and the electrical power to the heater pot tank (7) is cut off. Thus, the heating process ends. However, in any of these processes, 30 No intervention occurs on the circulation pump (6). Our invention requires multiple... to achieve the technical effects demonstrated. The existing configurations include a heat sensor within the generator. The condition of whether the thermostat (8) equipment is present together or not. Generator system 6 It definitely contains a temperature sensor. However, there is a possibility that it does not contain a thermostat. It is available. In both configurations, the block jacket receives heat from the heat sensor. the water temperature circulating in the circuit falling below the generator's operating temperature lower limit In this case, both the heater pot tank (7) and the circulation pump (6) are activated It includes a control system (10) containing a processor. The commissioning process involves both 5 This involves activating the relay or contactor of the equipment. From the heat sensor. The water temperature data circulating in the acquired block jacket circuit is considered to be above the generator operating temperature. If it exceeds the limit, both the heater pot reservoir (7) and the circulation The pump (6) is deactivated. The deactivation process involves both pieces of equipment. by the control system (10) by deactivating its relay or contactor 10 is being implemented. The control system (10), pot tank (7) and circulation pump (6) It can perform activation or deactivation operations at intermittent intervals. The aim here is, for example, that even when the pot reservoir (7) is switched off, it is still hot inside. Hot water is available. This hot water should also be transferred to the system so that it is not wasted. circulation pump (6), pot tank (7) for a little longer time 15 It can be operated. Thus, the heated water in the pot tank (7) can also be put into operation. It ensures that it is obtained. In another configuration of the invention, a heat sensor and a thermostat (8) are combined. If present, the same effect is achieved without activating the control system (10). In this configuration, the water heat circulating in the block jacket circuit is kept below the generator operating temperature. detecting if it falls below the limit and together with the heater pot reservoir (7) It includes a thermostat that provides electrical power to the circulation pump (6). The power connection of the circulation pump (6) is connected to the outlet of the heater pot tank (7). It is in this state (Series connection). That is, the power flow of the circulation pump (6) is connected to the heating pot It depends on whether the tank (7) receives power or not. Similarly, the thermostat, block jacket 25 the temperature of the water circulating in the circuit exceeding the upper limit of the generator's operating temperature When the condition is detected, the thermostat heats the pot reservoir (7) together with the heater pot (7). The electrical power of the circulation pump (6) is cut off. The mentioned lower and upper temperatures The degree range does not directly contribute to the technical impact of the invention. That is to say, this The temperature range can vary. What is important for the invention is a lower temperature and an upper 30°C. It is the presence of a temperature value. Any of the three configurations given above may include a generator in one of its sub-configurations. The system may include a timer. Thanks to this timer, the pot reservoir...

The timer is connected to the electrical system to which the equipment is attached. It is connected to the circuit and the power circuits of the two devices are activated at a specified time. It allows for activation or deactivation at intervals. A timer is a mechanical or digital, time-sensitive switch. Here again... The aim is, for example, that even when the pot tank (7) is switched off, there is still hot water inside. This hot water can be found. This water should also be transferred to the system so that it is not wasted. circulation pump (6), pot tank (7) for a little longer time It can be operated. Thus, the heated water in the pot tank (7) can also be put into operation. It ensures that it is obtained. In all configurations, the aforementioned hardware must be present in at least one unit of 10 within the system. It is located. In generator engines, the water circulating within the block jacket circuit passes through a heating pot. It was previously mentioned that it is heated by the tank (7). The generator set control system (10) when the data received from the heat sensor (8) drops below 38 degrees (lower By activating the temperature limit relay, the heater pot reservoir (7) is put into operation, thus block 15 Water circulating in the jacket circuit enters through the heater inlet (7.1), heater pot reservoir (7) heated by the resistor inside and exiting from the heater outlet (7.2) to the generator It is ensured that it is included in the system. Water temperature 45 degrees (upper temperature limit) When it arrives, the heater pot reservoir (7) relay is again activated by the control system (10). It is being shut down and disabled. This working principle is the known 20 of the technique. It is included in the situation. Regardless of which stage the cycle is in here, that is, whether it is the water temperature Whether it's below 45 degrees or 38 degrees, circulation is still maintained under the known conditions of the technique. The pumps (6) are constantly active. That is, regardless of the water temperature, the generator The circuit continues to be spun within the block jacket circuit. Our invention, circulation... By preventing the pump (6) from being constantly active, only the heater pot tank (7) 25 It ensures that it works when activated. This applies to both the engine jacket. to ensure homogeneous heat distribution and also to the parts outside the engine jacket The aim is to ensure energy efficiency by preventing unnecessary heating.
