ELECTRICAL GENERATOR WITH AN ELECTRICAL BUS CONNECTABLE TO DIFFERENT ELECTRICAL POWER SOURCES AND DIFFERENT LOADS
An electrical generator that is configured to simultaneously output different types of electrical power so that electrically powered components that require different types of electrical power can be simultaneously powered by the electrical generator. The electrical generator can be used at any location where electrically powered components that require different types of electrical power are utilized. Instead of or in addition to outputting different types of electrical power, the electrical generator can also be configured to output at least one type of electrical power as well as a cooling liquid for use in cooling an external heat generating component.
High capacity low restriction diesel generator air filtration system
An air filtration system is coupled to an inlet of an enclosure of or to a piece of equipment. The air filtration system is coupled to the enclosure at the air inlet such that air entering the enclosure through the air inlet passes through the air filtration system. The air filtration system includes a frame assembly. The frame assembly includes an outer frame and a support mesh. The outer frame is coupled to the enclosure. The air filtration system includes a door assembly. The door assembly includes a door frame and a door support mesh. The door assembly is received by and mechanically coupled to the frame assembly. The air filtration system includes filter media positioned in an interior of the air filtration system defined by the frame assembly and the door assembly.
Vehicle-power-generator control apparatus
There is provided a vehicle-power-generator control apparatus that can largely raise the gasoline mileage of an internal combustion engine. The vehicle-power-generator control apparatus includes a boost control unit having a function of making a magnetic-field current control unit perform boost-on control or boost-off control, based on a command provided by an ECU through communication and a function of making the magnetic-field current control unit perform boost-on control or boost-off control, based on at least one of a rotation speed of an internal combustion engine and a temperature of a vehicle power generator.
Portable blockchain mining systems and methods of use
Portable blockchain mining systems and methods of use are discussed here. Systems include a portable building; a plurality of blockchain mining processors mounted within, or a plurality of blockchain mining processor mounts located within, an interior of the portable building; an air inlet defined in the portable building; and an air outlet defined in the portable building. Air outlets may be above the air inlet and oriented to direct exhaust air in an upward direction out of the portable building. A cooling fan may be connected to convey air through the air inlet, across the plurality of blockchain mining processors and out the air outlet. The cooling fan may simultaneously cool a genset and processors 72. Compact, stackable mining modules are discussed.
Air-cooling system for portable generator
Devices, systems, and methods to air cool a portable generator are disclosed. The devices include various air ducts to direct airflow over heated components within a cabinet of the portable generator to cool the components by convection. A damping fan draws ambient temperature air into the cabinet and directs the air into channels of an outflow duct.
LINEAR PISTON ENGINE FOR OPERATING EXTERNAL LINEAR LOAD
A linear piston engine includes a housing having a combustion chamber located between opposing first and second piston chambers. A first piston assembly is located within the first piston chamber, and a second piston assembly is located within the second piston chamber. Each piston assembly includes a piston for reciprocating within the piston chamber. The piston is located adjacent to the combustion chamber. Each piston assembly also includes a crankshaft coupled to the piston for guiding the piston through a power stroke and a return stroke, and a linear output member coupled to the piston for providing a linear output motion based on reciprocating motion of the piston.
METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR FREEZING ALTERNATOR NODE ADDRESS
A vehicle system including a plurality of alternators with a common electrical connection interface having at least one connector and a digital communication connector through which a processor communicates with the alternators. Input signals received at the at least one connector are unique for each alternator under normal and unimpaired operating conditions. Upon wakeup of an alternator, the alternator assesses the input signals and whether the address of the alternator is frozen. If the address is not frozen, the status of at least one operating parameter is assessed to determine if a predefined requirement is satisfied. If the predefined requirement is satisfied, the alternator is assigned an address based upon the input signals at the at least one connector and the address is frozen. The alternator can detect faults by determining if the input signals at the least one connector agree with the frozen address of the alternator.
Power system radiators and power systems having radiators
Power system radiators and power systems having radiators are disclosed. An example power system includes: an engine; a generator configured to generate electrical power from mechanical power provided by the engine; power conversion circuitry configured to convert the electrical power from the generator to welding-type power; and a housing enclosing the engine, the generator, and the power conversion circuitry; and a radiator assembly configured to cool the engine and comprising a heat exchanger oriented substantially horizontally when the power system is installed.
