Medium-Speed Natural Gas Generator Sets refers to a power generation device that uses natural gas as fuel and a gas internal combustion engine as the prime mover to drive an alternating current generator, converting mechanical energy into electrical and thermal energy. It is mainly composed of a gas engine, a synchronous AC generator, and a control system. It is efficient, economical, clean and environmentally friendly.
The natural gas generators produced and operated by our company are suitable for both conventional natural gas (i.e. gas field natural gas) and unconventional natural gas (including oilfield associated gas, coalbed methane, shale gas, etc.).
The Main Advantages of Medium-Speed Gas Generator Sets Compared to High-Speed Gas Generator Sets are:
1. Extend the service life of the unit and improve reliability. Low speed can greatly reduce engine wear and extend the service life of components; Small component wear, long usage time, low maintenance costs, and improved economic benefits for users. The overhaul cycle of medium speed gas generator sets is generally over 60000 hours, while the overhaul cycle of high-speed gas generator sets generally does not exceed 15000 hours. In addition, the failure rate of the turbocharger and intercooler in high-speed engines is high.
2. High thermal efficiency. At low speeds, natural gas and air mix and burn in the cylinder for a long time, and natural gas burns fully, resulting in a corresponding low exhaust temperature.
SMCC Group produces and supplies medium speed natural gas generator sets, with the engine brands including MAN, CSSC, Hyundai, etc. The power range of medium speed natural gas generator sets is from 0.3 MW to 21 MW. With the further deepening of understanding of economic benefits, energy utilization, environment, and protection, gas as an environmentally friendly and clean energy source is increasingly valued by people. Natural gas such as oil and gas fields, coalbed methane, shale gas, etc. are currently vigorously advocated as new energy sources. There are more and more distributed energy power stations, and the long-term development prospects are promising. Opening up greater development space for you in the gas field will definitely bring you unparalleled competitive advantages.
