The answer is dependent on the size of the engine powering the generator, the electrical load on the generator, and generator's capacity to produce electricity.
Compare these two diesel generators:
- 11kW Kubota operating at half load (5500 watts) uses 1.4 gallons of diesel per hour - about .25 gallons per KVA.
- 50kW Generac Protector operating at half load (25kW) uses 2.6 gallons per hour, which is about .104 gallons per KVA.
What else can I help you with?
Does power load affect fuel consumption of portable generators?
Yes, the more load that is placed on the generator the more fuel it will use.
Are there bio-fuel compatible portable generators?
Yes, there are bio-fuel compatible portable generators. For example, Kentec Generators create these, which are very Earth-friendly. Powered Generators also supply bio-fuel compatible portable generators.
What are the uses for a diesel generator?
Diesel generators are generelly used in industrial applications. This is due to their low fuel consumption and high reliability. They are safer to operate than gasoline generators because diesel fuel is less flammable. Often they are used as a backup power source in case of a power outage.
What is the average fuel consumption of the 2006 Honda Accord?
The average fuel consumption of the 2006 Honda Accord is 10 km per liter of fuel. This includes in calculation the fuel consumption in crowded areas and the fuel consumption in regular areas.
Does driving with all lights on increase fuel consumption?
No it does not affect fuel consumption.
How much will old oil increase fuel consumption?
It will not increase fuel consumption.
What is fuel consumption of D8 cat dozer?
Hourly fuel consumption of a D8T dozer
Does overdrive increase fuel consumption?
No, fuel consumption is decreased, the vehicle rev's lower.
Are coal and oil motors or generators?
They are neither. Coal is a fuel which can be used to run motors and generators.
Which power house generators are lightweight and fuel efficient?
Powerhouse generators are known for their portability. This means that all their generators are lightweight. The brand is also known for their long running times, which means they have excellent fuel efficiency.
How efficient are generators in converting fuel into electricity?
Generators are generally efficient in converting fuel into electricity, with modern generators achieving efficiencies of around 30-40. This means that about 30-40 of the energy in the fuel is converted into electrical energy, while the rest is lost as heat.
What is the fuel consumption of a Gulfstream III aircraft?
Fuel Consumption: 568 gallons per hour
