Q:diesel generator

1. Determine the diameter of the cylinders and piston stroke of locomotive engine 2. Determine the wheel diameter of the locomotive 3. Find the mean pressure of the piston for the generator engine 4. Multiply the cylinder diameter by itself 5. Multiply 324 by the stroke length 6. Multiply 7,776 by the mean pressure of the piston 7. Divide 622,080 by the diameter of the locomotive wheel.

Q:Can bases be sources of electricity? Please explain why and cite your references. Thanks :)

base has many meanings. Air force bases sometimes have a diesel generator. Base hospitals almost always have diesel generators. A chemical base, together the right metals, can act as a electrochemical cell (battery). A base metal, such as zinc and copper, with the proper acid can act as a electrochemical cell (battery). .

Q:I am thinking about installing solar panels on my roof and I am just wondering if it will be possible to completely get my house off the grid. I live in the state of Missouri. I am thinking to buy a house in Florida also and I want to install solar panels on that house if I ever buy it. How many KW will it take lets say for an average 3-4 BDRM?

You will need about $40,000 to $50,000 for an average house not including using it for heat or air conditioning (unless running generator a lot). To be off grid, your system will require the following: Many panels (approx. 16) large battery bank (approx 24 large golf cart type) Charge controller (Converts ac to dc and controls charge to batteries) Controller / Rectifier unit (controls power flow from/to generator, batteries, and loads) Gas /Diesel Generator (approx 10KW size) Safe building with good ventilation for generator and Batteries (extreme fire/explosion danger if not) Lots of wiring Lots of patience and great care to use minimum power, or batteries will not last long enough and running generator is much more expensive than grid power.

Q:I have noticed that many people leave their computers on all day for some reason. I would like to know why and if its better or worse for the computer than to just turn it off. Also, is it more efficient to leave it on?Anyway, the only thing I would like to know is why do many people leave their computers on all day and if you are one of them, why?

i leave my computer on 24/7 cause if you keep turning it on or off it is likely that your data maybe lost or one of your components might fail.

Q:I am looking to run a 1200watt electrical generator using Hydrogen gas versus using Gasoline, Propane or Diesel. If anyone knows even where I can start looking towards steps or plans for something like this?

Um, can I ask you one question. why? Internal combustion engines can run off of hydrogen, sure, that's a no-brainer. But can I ask where you have an unlimited supply of hydrogen available to you, such that it's so much cheaper to use that it's worth it to make a very complicated expensive modification such as this? And why not just directly convert it into electricity with a fuel cell? It's far more efficient, lower maintenance, and sooooo quiet you could hear a mouse fart right next to it. Nice pie in the sky, but currently quite impractical.

Q:I need to write up a pre fire plan for the Emergency Diesel Generator room aboard the ship I sail on at school, does anyone have any information? Thanks

Nopebut I can write one for a Brigade Combat Team in the attack or on the defense

Q:How to correctly select oil for diesel generator

The lubricity of synthetic oil is higher than that of mineral oil, the friction resistance is small, it is not easy to oxidation, and the detergency is strong

Q:Diesel generator is not what is the reason for generating electricity

the contact between the exciter brush and commutator is bad or the brush holder pressure is not enough.

Q:has ne one ever thought abt or seen a stand alone affordable power generation unit cheaper than normal power supply on running costs(even if higher one time costs) .I am in india.but ne info is welcome.My idea is abt an INDIVIDUAL HOUSE OWNER NEEDS

well, okorder

Q:gas is too expensive. here in florida i guess everyone has a noisy gas powered generator for when hurricanes knock out our power

If its disel, of course. a disel generator with biodisel is an excellent way to recharge batteries in an electric vehicle.
