Why Does The Volvo Generator Set Failure?

Today, we will briefly introduce to you the problem of why the Volvo generator set fails.

Properties of materials and oils In the design and manufacturing process, materials should be correctly selected according to the working properties and characteristics of Volvo generator set parts. Improper selection of materials, materials that do not meet the regulations and the selection of inappropriate substitutes are the main reasons for the wear, corrosion, deformation, fatigue damage, cracking and aging of parts. The properties of various materials and oils used in Volvo generator sets can be summed up in three aspects: physical properties, chemical properties and mechanical properties. Many failures of Volvo generator sets are due to the influence of external factors, which are the result of these properties. If the metal material is subjected to excessive force, it will deform, crack or even break, oxidize under high temperature, and cause fatigue damage under various loads; non-metallic materials will age; the acid contained in the oil will affect the metal. Corrosive effect, and will make the oil deteriorate, etc.

Structural features of the parts Each part of the Volvo generator set has its own characteristics in terms of structure. At work, external factors often act through these characteristics, causing the related parts to fail. For example, due to the structural characteristics of the engine water jacket, under the action of high temperature, the cooling water easily forms scale on the outer wall of the cylinder liner, which affects the cooling effect of the cylinder liner.

The working characteristics of the parts are in direct contact with the parts that have relative motion and wear due to friction. For example, the piston ring of a diesel engine is in direct contact with the cylinder. During the working process, the piston ring performs a high-speed reciprocating linear motion in the cylinder, which causes the cylinder to wear. Parts with severe temperature changes during operation will deform and crack due to thermal stress. For example, during the operation of the engine, the internal stress of the cylinder block and the cylinder head is redistributed due to the high temperature, and a new balance is reached, resulting in the warping and deformation of the plane of the cylinder block and the cylinder head.

Dingbo Power was founded in 2006 and is one of the earliest manufacturers of generators and diesel generator sets in China. If you want get more information, please feel free to send email to sales@dieselgeneratortech.com we will pay highly attention on your question.
