I don't know what brand of diesel generator you have. The diesel consumption of different brands is still very different
At the same time, I don't know if your 550 Kw is a diesel engine. or generator power
Take Cummins 500Kw diesel generator set as an example:
Generator power 500Kw
Main and backup power 500/550Kw
< p>6 cylinders, displacement 18.9 L, fuel consumption 196 g/KwFuel consumption is approximately 110 to 119 liters per hour
Oil consumption is approximately 0.2 to 0.3 liters per hour
The internal circulation of antifreeze is basically consumption-free
How many cubic meters water does a 10 kilowatt hydroelectric generator need per hour?
It also depends on the water depth (head of water). Suppose the water height is H (m), the flow rate is Q (m3/h), the power is P (kW), the water density est d (1000 kg/m3), gravity. acceleration g =10m/s2, considering the conversion efficiency μ, there is the relational formula: P = μdgHQ/3.6, if: μ=0.6, P=5kW, d=1000kg/m3, H = 2m , then Q = 3.6P/ (μdgH) = 3.6x5/(0.6x1x10x2)= 1.5m3/h.
That is, when the generator has a height difference of 2 meters and a conversion efficiency of 0.6, the required water flow is about 1.5 meters cube per hour.
51.02 cubic meters of water. 10 kWh = 10 kW × 1 hour = 10,000 Joules, flow = energy ÷ density ÷ acceleration ÷ square flow ÷ 2 = 10,000 ÷ 1,000 ÷ 9.8 ÷ (0.12/2) = 51.02 cubic meters, therefore 10 kilowatts of hydroelectric energy production. The machine requires 51.02 cubic meters of water per hour.
