Working Principle
A methanol generator set is a device that converts the chemical energy of methanol into electrical energy. It generally uses an internal combustion engine to burn methanol to generate heat energy, which then drives the piston to move, converting the heat energy into mechanical energy. After that, a generator is used to convert the mechanical energy into electrical energy. Methanol is mixed with air in the internal combustion engine and then ignited by a spark plug, compression ignition, or other methods to release energy and drive the engine to operate.
The 18kW methanol generator set is a cost-effective choice for lightweight power consumption scenarios, especially suitable for backup power supply for three-person households, micro-convenience stores (such as community grocery stores), small fruit and vegetable stalls, and outdoor temporary supply stations. With a lightweight design, it can be easily moved by one person, no complex installation is required, and it can be quickly put into use by plugging in. It can not only stably support the operation of basic household loads such as refrigerators, lighting, and small electric heaters, but also meet the power needs of cash registers and display lights in micro-businesses. Equipped with a low-consumption methanol combustion system, it has higher fuel utilization rate and lower daily use cost, and its emissions meet civil environmental protection standards. The body adopts an anti-corrosion shell, and with a simplified internal structure, it is more convenient for later cleaning and maintenance. The core components have undergone adaptation tests for civil scenarios, featuring smooth start-up and operating noise lower than the average level of household appliances, providing convenient, economical, and low-burden power support for lightweight power consumption scenarios.
