Engines for Generator Electric generators work on the principle of electromagnetic induction. A conductor coil (a copper coil tightly wound onto a metal core) is rotated rapidly between the poles of a horseshoe type magnet. Generation of electric power is by a rotating magnetic field within static windings. Hence the electrically energized rotor with its magnetic poles rotates inside the stator where the electric current isgenerated at high voltage. Most modern, larger generators have a stationary armature (stator) with a rotating current-carrying conductor (rotor or revolving field). The regulator rectifies this voltage and applies DC to the exciter stator. The DC voltage appears in the main revolving field and induces a higher AC voltage in the main stator. We will Discuss about the Machine in depth. This Electrical power machine is mainly consists of two rotating equipments. Frist one is Engine and second one Generator. Generator generates Electrical power by the conversion of Energy forms, it convert Rotational Mechanical Energy to Electrical Power but, Engine provides the MechanicalEnergy to Generator by fuel burning in Cylinder. There were two types of engines which wer used for providing rotational mechanical energy. A. Deisel Generators - These generators are mainly used for the power generation at Residential & Commercial complexes as well as industries. Handling, Operation and Maintenance of these Engines are easier. The design and working principal or these engines make them more rigid and robust during operations, these can handle wide load fluctuations which make them convenient for wide uses. Pros 1.

In a compression-ignited system, the diesel fuel is injected into the combustion chamber of the engine and ignited by the high temperatures achieved when the gas is compressed by the engine piston. This results in the firing and provides require power. Big engines have additional aftertreatment components that reduce particulate matter and break downdangerous nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions into harmless nitrogen and water. B. Gas Generator's These generators are mainly use for the commercial and industrial uses. As we know gas availability is mainly depends on the transportation and availability. Gas transportation is done by the two mediums Road tankers and pipelines. Some metro cities are having Gas availability due to the pipelines in form of CNG and LPG. Industries are using Natural gas for operation of such Engines. Few places and rural reagions with the initiative of Government Biogas plants has been constructed for the power generation through operations. Pros. Easy to handle . Easy to shift and mobilise .

The Four-Stroke CombustionCycle Gas and diesel engines use a four-stroke combustion cycle: e Intake stroke: The piston travels from TDC (top dead center) to BDC (bottom dead center). As the piston moves down, this creates a low pressure inside the cylinder, and air is drawn into the cylinder through the open intake valve and fills the cylinder with oxygen rich air. e Compression stroke: The piston travels from BDC to TDC. The piston is compressing a large volume of oxygen rich air (and in some cases a 14.7:1 ration of fuel), preparing for combustion. As the piston approachesTDC, a spark is induced causing an explosion (combustion). Power stroke: The piston travels from TDC to BDC. The enormous cylinder pressures created from combustion push the piston downward, transferring the power of combustion to the crankshaft. Exhaust stroke: The piston travels from BDC to TDC. As the piston rises in the cylinder, exhaust gasses are pushed out of the cylinder through the exhaust valve and enter the emissions or after treatment system before being released to the atmosphere.
