Q:I don't see why I couldn't use my car's engine as a power generator. I would only need maybe 1000 watts. The car is a 1990 Ford F350 diesel.

You'd be wasting too much fuel, though it is possible. 1) replace the existing alternator with some super-heavy-duty ones, ones that go in minibuses and such. As you aren't going to power any AC or such, you can probably power two of them together or with a Y formation. 2) Disconnect the trans and anything else not needed (AC, etc.) This is to make sure th engine run at max efficiency, minimal drag. 3) Get a high-cap inverter, to convert the 12V DC back into 120V AC. This will need to have some serious cooling for itself. Depending on your setup, you should be able to generate 500-1000 watts depending on the capacity of your alternators and capacity of your batteries. I'd recommend you replace the batteries w/ some industrial-sized ones like 8D (about 120 LB each) and feed your power inverter from the battery. Don't forget a good UPS / surge protector just in case.

Q:i means what's happen in diesel generator while just switch on ?

I am trying to figure out what you are asking? Step 1 is guess is to press start? What are you looking for? One last guess,, did it start?

Q:I think that they heat up water and put it in a tub right?do they make their own soap?How many times a week do they bathe?

Amish homes have running water and hot water heaters. The homes typically have wells and pressure tanks with pumps that are powered by wind or gasoline/diesel generators. Their hot water heaters will typically use propane gas. Most Amish families buy soap at stores, although some families still make it themselves. How often they bathe is a personal choice, just like you or me.

Q:i know that steam powers the turbine. And depending on the type of plant, i know how the steam is made. But once the turbine is spinning and generating electricity, i get lost. I know it all has something to do with electrons and metal coils and magnetic fields, but can you help me understand it all?

Q:I am leaving a career as an aviation electrician after 23 years and have applied for a job as a diesel locomotive electrician with Union Pacific. I was notified about a skills test and was hoping to brush up a bit before the test. Which areas should I focus on studying? Also what can I expect on a day to day basis working in this field? And lastly, although I can troubleshoot and wire a jumbo liner in my sleep I don't have specific experience with large generators and motors. How will this affect me in the hiring process. Thanks in advance for any help.

Q:How do they supply their own electricity? I know recently they have moved to solar energy, but am curious as to what else they do.

They have various diesel generator power houses set up around the islands.

Q:I have never had any interest in cars until recently when diesel engines have started to feel like important and valuable power sources moving forward.

Q:I want to build a little shack in the bush where i can hang out with friends. Nothing special no plumbing maybe diesel generator very small and possibly a wood stove. What supplies should i use for walls, floor, ceiling and roof. will be built on private land hidden in back roads. This would just be a place to hang out on weekends and not really a place to live. What else should be included and what is important stuff to know

WOW! Where do I begin? I've been a Carpenter for a bit now. Are you going to build it on Sono-Tubes? You need to know,, Plumb, and Level, and Square. Which roof will it have? 5/12, 8/12, or 12/12 pitch? What space is available? Plywood, 2 by 4's 2by 6's, 2 by 10's, 2 by 12's? All of those apply to building a comfortable abode. Will you insulate it? You will also need roofing shingles. That's where the square comes into factor. 10 by 10, is 1 square. Do you want to panel the walls? Sheetrock? Leave them bare? Their is a lot to consider. You just don't slap something up.

Q:can't those nuclear material in japan be kept inside a container that is not affected by it like lead?or shifted to an isolated location.

When an earthquake strikes a reactor, it detects and stops working. Due to continuous heating in the reactor, it needs to be cooled down. This is done by electricity-run generators. But due to power crisis aftermath the tsunami, these generators failed. Then diesel generators took their place. These too failed to work. And at the end, battery-run generators were applied. These also turned ineffective. Now no measure can be used to cool down the reactors. Reactors will probably blast due to heating up and radioactive material will spread in the sky. Sorry, but your suggestion is not easy to apply.
