How does a cooling system of a Generator work?

Every generator set of manufacture of different design of cooling system. There


are two types cooling system in generator closed loop and open loop system.
Cooling system include, cooling fan, cooling pump and radiator. In radiator
coolant is cool by entering air which go into engine block by water pump them
thermostat is used maintenance the operating temperature and circulate the
coolant in engine block if temperature is below thermostat is block the coolant.
Then coolant into radiator.

Briefly describe the following:What is a cooling system and types?


Cooling system usually doing a device temperature keep in exceeding limit that
for need and safety. Over heating in oil lose lubrication in mechines. Cooling
system is important factor in automobiles and machine which is used in machine
to cool the working system through radiator.

Two types cooling system


 Air cooled system
 Water cooled system
Air cooled system: Best cooling method first is open ventilated system A Type
exhaust system air is used. Another type is enclosed system in which air keep in
place. its work to recirculate air is cooled which in turn cools

Water cooled system: Numerous methods for water cooling mostly oil is used
and also coolant is used. coolant is mostly used in engine. Liquid-cooling systems
are more expensive to produce but they are more durable and powerful than the
air-cooled alternative.

How does a cooling system work the actual and schematic diagram of
cooling system ?
The passages made in engine Block head and water pump by Cooling System to
circulate the coolant as coolant flow the holes the take the heat from engine. The
compressor compressed the refrigerant make it pressurized go into condensor to
condense the boiling liquid and then to the expansion value where is pressure is
low and liquid and gas mixture low the temperature. Then it go to evaporator to
air exchanger absorb heat from refrigerant to cool and refrigerant to vapourized.

Component of cooling system:Following are component of cooling system


1. Compressor
2. Condenser
3. Expansion value
4. Evaporator

Compressor: It compressed the refrigerant by taking low pressure gas and turn
into high pressured fluid. Temperature is increased during compression.

Condenser: Heat exchanging device which is used to cool the refrigerant


through air refrigerant became hot liquid after condense.
Expansion value: it used to down the pressure of liquid and gas mixture in
which temperature is low.

Evaporator: Cold refrigerant flow from tubes where air is passed to cooled
refrigerant absorb the heat from air and become hot and vaporized.

Checks for maintenance:


1. Coils must clean
2. Regularly clean fan blades
3. Level must check of refrigerant
4. Checked and change air filter
5. Regularly inspect the leakage
6. Drainage line must clean
7. Tested oil level.
