How to calculate the diesel generator efficiency? what
details are required to identify the running diesel
generator sets with 1000 kVA & 180 kVA?

Answer Posted / faisal

Step 1
Determine the amount of fuel consumed in an hour by the generator. You can use a diesel fuel consumption chart to calculate how much fuel is used in an hour by generators of various sizes.
Step 2
Determine the total electrical power load consumed during an hour. This can be done by connecting a kilowatt-hour meter to the output of the generator, or by referencing the electrical output label on the generator.
Step 3
Convert the amount of fuel used to British Thermal Units, or BTUs. The Oak Ridge National Laboratory has a chart that has the number of BTUs in various types of fossil fuels.
Step 4
Convert the fuel's BTU value to kilowatt-hours by using the conversion factor of 1 kWh = 3413 BTU.
Step 5
Divide the output of the generator in kWh by the input value of the fuel used in kWh. Multiply this figure by 100 to express it as a percent.
