A system designer must consider environmental and performance criteria when sizing and positioning the exhaust system of a generator set. Correct installation of the exhaust is also crucial to ensuring
Learn More
Generator exhaust can enter a structure through large openings,such as windows and doors. However,exhaust and CO can also seep into the structure through smaller,less obvious
Learn More
The heat dissipated by the exhaust and the cooling system are injected into the airflow field and the temperature of the flow field is measured to quantify the amount of heat recirculation, which reduces
Learn More
Where necessary, exhaust piping must be guarded and/or insulated to prevent burns. Provide a clearance of at least 9 inches (229mm) (10 inches (250mm) recommended) between exhaust piping
