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.
Such as community pharmacies (ensuring refrigerated medicine fridges keep running), small office buildings (supporting emergency lighting, elevators, and communication rooms), and chain restaurants (maintaining the operation of fridges and basic kitchen equipment during power outages to reduce food waste).
- Civil and public facilities
Such as mid-rise residential communities (powering corridor lighting and water pump rooms during emergencies to prevent water cuts in high-rise buildings), small libraries/archives (supporting constant temperature and humidity equipment and monitoring systems), and town health centers (powering emergency equipment, infusion pumps, and vaccine freezers).
- Industrial auxiliary emergency
Such as "critical load backup" in factory workshops (not for entire production lines, but only for ensuring control circuits and small critical equipment, e.g., assembly line monitoring and small water pumps) and data collection stations (supporting sensors and data transmission equipment to avoid data loss).
3. Special Scenarios (Adaptation to Specific Needs)
- Mobile power supply needs
Modified into a "mobile generator set" with a trailer, it is used for outdoor performances, temporary exhibitions (powering audio systems, lighting, and small display screens), and post-disaster temporary resettlement sites (powering temporary lighting and drinking water purifiers).
Serves as a "complementary power source" for small-scale photovoltaic/wind power systems: when new energy generation is insufficient due to cloudy days or no wind, the 30kW generator set starts to supplement power, ensuring stable load operation (e.g., small household photovoltaic power stations and mountainous
distributed photovoltaic power supply systems).
Reference for Adaptable Loads (To Help Determine Compatibility with Needs)
The "actual load-carrying capacity" of a 30kW generator set is approximately 80% of its rated power (i.e., around 24kW), which can simultaneously power the following typical load combinations:
Combination 1: 5 1.5HP air conditioners + 10 refrigerators + 20 lights + 1 small water pump;
Combination 2: 1 small electric welder (3-5kW) + 2 cutting machines (2kW each) + temporary lighting + 1 mixer (5kW);
Combination 3: 10 guest rooms in a homestay (1 air conditioner + lighting per room) + 2 refrigerators in the kitchen + 1 water heater.
If the load includes "motor-driven equipment" (e.g., water pumps, fans), a 2-3x "starting power" reserve is required (a 30kW generator set can adapt to a single motor with a starting power ≤90kW) to avoid overloading during startup.
