4 FAQs about The air intake shaft of the generator room

What happens if the design of air intake and exhaust routes is unreasonable?

If the design of the air intake and exhaust routes of diesel generator room is unreasonable, it will cause the hot air of the unit in the engine room to circulate in the engine room, resulting in a serious increase in the temperature of the engine room, thus affecting the normal operation of the diesel generator set.

What is a diesel generator air intake & exhaust system?

The diesel generator air intake and exhaust system (DGAIES) provides the diesel engine with combustion air from the outside. The combustion air passes through a filter and silencer before being compressed by a turbocharger and cooled by the coolant system before entering the individual cylinders for combustion.

Which axial fan should be used for forced air intake?

When the air intake in the machine room is insufficient, an industrial axial fan should be used for forced air intake, in order to obtain more fresh cold air into the machine room and then circulate. When designing the air intake and exhaust of diesel generator room, we should pay attention to the matters which mentions in this article.

Where is a diesel generator set installed?

In most cases, the diesel generator set is installed in the generator room for use. During the design process of the engine room, the air inlet and air outlet must be unblocked to ensure the air intake to supplement the air consumed by the generator combustion and the unit.
