Abstract
Diesel generating sets are machines capable of supplying electrical energy through the combustion of fuels, such as diesel, biodiesel, vegetable oil. The principle of operation is based on the transformation of thermal energy into electrical energy, used in several applications, mainly industrial and residential. The operational parameters of the generator sets have direct dependence between them and their variation can significantly affect the engine performance. Therefore, the careful analysis of these characteristic parameters of the generator set is of great importance, mainly for conducting research in the laboratory. This paper describes the minimum requirements to establish a laboratory bench to conduct research on generator sets, and thus analyze their performance when operating with different types of fuels. For this, an experimental bench was designed, considering the minimum requirements of all the subsystems, including fuel supply, intake air, exhaust gases and generated power.
