This is the preview to explain the contents of course, benefits, ideal students and brief introduction about tutor.
Discover the diesel generator ecosystem, including types, cooling, and end-use applications, and review the market size from 2020 at 17.5 billion to 2027 at 30 billion, growing at 8% CAGR.
Work done by OEM.
Explains sheet metal bending with punch, die, and back gauge, and covers V size, bend angle, bend allowance and deduction, k factor, neutral plane, spring back, and CNC machines.
Explains mig welding basics for a dg set canopy, shielding gas and wire settings, and outlines zinc phosphate pretreatment and corrosion classes c1–c5 for powder coating.
Explore electrostatic deposition powder coating from pretreatment to curing ovens and quality control. Understand adhesion, cure temperature, and common defects like pinholes and Faraday cage effects.
Learn how to implement powder coating quality control by verifying dry film thickness with DFT, applying SSPC PA2 readings, and assessing appearance, adhesion, and environmental tests.
Master crankshaft end play and thrust washer considerations when coupling engine and alternator, use dial gauge readings to verify SAE number compatibility and flywheel housing fit.
Assemble the generator canopy, engine, and alternator; perform critical coupling and end-play checks; ensure radiator fan alignment and secure wiring with avms and sensing wires for reliable 60 Hz output.
Best Practices for Engine and Alternator Assembly.
6th Best Practices for Engine Alternator mounting on base frame cum checklist
Understand the generator protection system, including switches and sensors for oil pressure, coolant temperature, and rpm, and how the genset controller uses 4–20 mA signals to warn or shut down.
Explain how a genset control panel with Deepsea or Woodward controllers uses CTs and voltage sensing to manage loads, relays, battery chargers, and wiring diagrams.
Explore brushless alternators, AVR control, and the principles of voltage regulation. Explain insulation classes, temperature rise, and duty types S1 and S10 for reliable, rated operation.
Execute the generator starting procedure and electrical load test, observing no-load and step-load performance. Analyze transient responses and voltage-frequency stability per G2/G3 class and ISO 8528 standards.
Assess diesel genset performance through sound level, vibration, back pressure, and LAT tests, guided by ISO standards. Execute protections testing and generate model-specific test reports for prototype validation.
Learn to size diesel generators using ISO8528-1 concepts, calculating kW and kVA with power factor, and evaluating prime and continuous ratings, starting kVA, overload risks, and load profiles.
Routine maintenance, Lubrication, cooling, air induction systems and diagnosis by smoke color.
Explore NFPA 110, the standard for emergency and standby power systems, and how class, type, and level determine EPSS design, transfer switch timing, and operation.
Explain NFPA Part 3 requirements for diesel generators, covering jacket water heaters, lubrication pumps, anti condensation heaters, RTD/BTD sensors, battery chargers with BMS, and EPSS load testing.
Assess how environmental factors affect diesel generator performance, including ambient temperature, altitude, humidity, dust, and fire prone areas, causing power deration and cooling concerns.
Optimize the diesel generator exhaust system to keep back pressure within limits; each 50 mm rise reduces power and increases fuel use by 1%, and raises exhaust temperature by 5%.
Design a diesel generator exhaust system, including manifold, hood, bellow, silencer, and tail pipe, while placing joints outside the hood and observing silencer volume and D over d.
Explore configuring long diesel generator exhaust systems to control back pressure and noise, balancing silencer placement, expansion chamber, wind direction, and pipe design with proper supports and cladding.
