If the generator is to maintain the same rpm and power output, then a heavier load will increase the diesel consumption. The revolutions per minute the generator runs will increase as the load increases, thereby resulting in an increase in diesel consumption to maintain the high rpm. A Generator has a governor which attempts to maintain frequency at 60 Hz for North America. For the generator to increase the power output at the same frequency, the governor will increase the fuel and air to the engine. The fuel consumption will not be linear because of the curves associated with the particular engine. The fuel to KWH is know as the heat rate curve for the generator.
The main parts of a diesel generator set include engine, alternator, fuel system, cooling system, exhaust system, control panel, voltage regulator, battery, base frame and enclosure.These are the essential components of a diesel generator set, although additional components and accessories may be present depending on the specific requirements and features of the generator.
To know how much fuel a 250KVA diesel generator uses per hour, referring to the operator's manual is all that is needed. It states that properly maintained diesel generators of this size average a fuel consumption of 21 gallons per hour.

You can convert a petrol engine into a diesel engine by changing the fuel injectors. The fuel filters will also need to be changed.

The cost of running a diesel generator can vary depending on various factors such as the size and efficiency of the generator, the price of diesel fuel, and the duration and frequency of usage. On average, diesel generators consume about 0.5 to 1 gallon of diesel fuel per hour for every kilowatt (kW) of power produced. To calculate the cost, you would need to know the current price of diesel fuel, the generator's fuel consumption rate, and the number of hours the generator will be running. By multiplying these factors together, you can determine the approximate cost of running a diesel generator.
On an average load on a 15 kc DG is about 4 littered of diesel per hour.
Diesel generator are generator that uses diesel. having the ability to withstand corrosive particles in fuel(diesel).
is the fuel consume by the the engine
Generator will not run or miss very badly. Drain all the fuel out and drain the lines. Replace the fuel filter and fill it up with Diesel.
Put diesel fuel in it !... Then either press the starter button or pull the starter cord !
The amount of diesel used in a diesel-powered generator depends on several factors including the generator's power output, fuel efficiency, and the duration of operation. Diesel generators typically have a fuel consumption rate measured in liters per hour (L/h) or gallons per hour (gal/h).To determine the specific amount of diesel used, you would need to know the generator's fuel consumption rate. This information can usually be found in the generator's specifications or user manual. For example, a small diesel generator with a 5-liter/hour fuel consumption rate would use 5 liters of diesel per hour of operation.
Modern submarines (depending on type) use nuclear fuel for their reactors, plus a tank of diesel fuel that acts as both reactor shielding and fuel supply for the backup diesel generator. Diesel-Electric submarines use strictly diesel fuel.
I think you can buy a diesel generator at any of the places that you buy a gas one. Why do you prefer diesel over gas. Diesel would be harder to start in winter cause diesel fuel tends to gel when cold out.
