How does a diesel generator produce electricity? • The primary function of a diesel generator is to convert mechanical energy created by the combustion of diesel into electrical energy. • A diesel generator set consists of three parts: diesel engine, AC alternator and control panel. • Inside the generator set, the air is drawn into the cylinder and compressed. • The compressed air is heated to a temperature of 700 – 900°C. ‹#›
How does a diesel generator produce electricity? • Simultaneously, diesel is injected in the cylinder which combusts due to the high temperature of the cylinder. • The heat energy is converted into mechanical energy through a piston in the cylindrical passage, this piston is further connected to a crankshaft. • An alternator is paired with the diesel engine and the mechanical energy from the cylinder is transmitted to an alternator and converted into electrical energy. ‹#›
