Procedure for the Evaluation of Generation Engines Under Local Environmental Conditions

Abstract

During the use of generator sets batteries, the operational evaluation of these to verify their behavior during the operation to which they are subjected is important. For the development of the procedure, theoretical and empirical expressions related to the methods of selection and adjustment of internal combustion engines were considered in specific environmental conditions, obtained from the consultation carried out in the existing bibliographies, mainly ISO 3604- 1 and 15550v. We established the procedure of analysis of consumption index and the service power of the battery under the climatological conditions of the site. It is determined that under normal atmospheric conditions the climate variables do not have a great influence on the variation of the service power and the fuel consumption index, although this is not the case in high humidity and reference altitude conditions above sea level. The objective is based on standard reference conditions and method of declaration of power and fuel consumption.
