Diesel Generator Handbook meets the need for an authoritative
reference work covering the range of mechanical and electrical
topics embodied in the practical design and application of diesel
generating plant. It will be particularly welcomed in many parts of
the developing world where the diesel generator is basic to the
electricity supply system.
The discussion covers, in fifteen chapters, the prime mover, power
ratings, synchronous generators, load assessment, control
principles and systems, switchgear and controlgear, standby power,
fuels and lubricating oilss, installation and commissioning, noise
reduction, and plant operation and maintenance.
The book thus caters for all who are concerned with the selection,
specification, testing, commissioning, operation and maintenance of
diesel-based generator systems: not only the practising plant or
services engineers, but also non-specialist engineers and users.
The young technician or trainee engineer who is embarking on a
career in the supply industry will find this handbook an invaluable
investment.
L L J Mahon, FIEE, FBIM, after an engineering apprenticeship with
BTH in Rugby, gained over 30 years' experience in the design,
development, manufacture, installation and commissioning of both
stationary and highly specialised mobile diesel generator plant for
a range of applications.
An informative reference work covering the range of mechanical and
electrical topics within the practical design and application of
diesel generating plants
Ideal for professionals concerned with diesel-based generator
systems
An invaluable source of information for the your technician or
trainee engineer starting a career in the supply industry
