It uses natural gas as fuel and converts chemical energy into electrical energy through a series of complex and sophisticated processes, providing stable and reliable power support for our production and life.

一、工作原理

1、 Working principle

天然氣發(fā)電機組主要由燃氣發(fā)動機、發(fā)電機、控制系統(tǒng)以及其他輔助設備組成 。其核心的發(fā)電原理基于燃氣發(fā)動機的工作循環(huán)。天然氣與空氣按照一定比例混合后，進入燃氣發(fā)動機的燃燒室。在燃燒室內(nèi)，混合氣體被火花塞點燃，瞬間發(fā)生劇烈的燃燒反應，產(chǎn)生高溫高壓的燃氣 。這些燃氣迅速膨脹，推動活塞在氣缸內(nèi)做往復直線運動，將燃氣的熱能轉(zhuǎn)化為機械能 ?；钊耐鶑瓦\動通過連桿傳遞給曲軸，使曲軸做旋轉(zhuǎn)運動 。曲軸與發(fā)電機的轉(zhuǎn)子相連，帶動轉(zhuǎn)子在定子的磁場中高速旋轉(zhuǎn)，根據(jù)電磁感應原理，在定子繞組中產(chǎn)生感應電動勢，從而輸出電能 。為了確保整個系統(tǒng)的穩(wěn)定運行，還配備了進氣系統(tǒng)，精確控制天然氣和空氣的混合比例；冷卻系統(tǒng)，及時帶走發(fā)動機工作時產(chǎn)生的熱量；潤滑系統(tǒng)，減少各運動部件之間的摩擦；以及控制系統(tǒng)，實時監(jiān)測和調(diào)控機組的運行參數(shù)，如轉(zhuǎn)速、電壓、頻率等 。

Natural gas generator sets are mainly composed of gas engines, generators, control systems, and other auxiliary equipment. The core principle of power generation is based on the working cycle of gas engines. After natural gas and air are mixed in a certain proportion, they enter the combustion chamber of a gas engine. In the combustion chamber, the mixed gas is ignited by a spark plug, and a violent combustion reaction occurs instantly, producing high-temperature and high-pressure gas. These gases rapidly expand, pushing the piston to make reciprocating linear motion inside the cylinder, converting the thermal energy of the gases into mechanical energy. The reciprocating motion of the piston is transmitted to the crankshaft through the connecting rod, causing the crankshaft to rotate. The crankshaft is connected to the rotor of the generator, which drives the rotor to rotate at high speed in the magnetic field of the stator. According to the principle of electromagnetic induction, an induced electromotive force is generated in the stator winding, thereby outputting electrical energy. In order to ensure the stable operation of the entire system, an intake system is also equipped to precisely control the mixing ratio of natural gas and air; The cooling system promptly removes the heat generated by the engine during operation; Lubrication system to reduce friction between moving parts; And the control system, which monitors and regulates the operating parameters of the unit in real time, such as speed, voltage, frequency, etc.

二、顯著優(yōu)勢

相較于傳統(tǒng)的燃煤、燃油發(fā)電，天然氣燃燒后產(chǎn)生的污染物大幅減少 。幾乎不產(chǎn)生二氧化硫、粉塵等污染物，氮氧化物的排放量也遠低于國家標準 。同時，二氧化碳排放量也比煤炭、石油等化石燃料低很多，有助于減少溫室氣體排放，緩解全球氣候變化 。

Compared to traditional coal-fired and oil fired power generation, the pollutants generated by natural gas combustion are significantly reduced. Almost no pollutants such as sulfur dioxide and dust are produced, and the emissions of nitrogen oxides are far below national standards. At the same time, carbon dioxide emissions are much lower than fossil fuels such as coal and oil, which helps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and alleviate global climate change.

（三）啟動迅速

（3） Start quickly

天然氣發(fā)電機組的啟動速度快，從冷啟動到滿負荷運行通常只需短短幾十秒到幾分鐘 ，能夠在短時間內(nèi)快速響應電力需求的變化，尤其適用于作為應急備用電源 。

The starting speed of natural gas generator sets is fast, usually taking only a few tens of seconds to a few minutes from cold start to full load operation. It can quickly respond to changes in power demand in a short period of time, especially suitable as an emergency backup power source.

（四）運行穩(wěn)定

（4） Stable operation

天然氣發(fā)動機的工作過程相對平穩(wěn)，振動和噪聲較小 。這不僅降低了對周圍環(huán)境的影響，也減少了設備的磨損和故障概率，提高了設備的可靠性和使用壽命 。此外，其發(fā)電質(zhì)量高，輸出電壓和頻率的穩(wěn)定性好，能夠滿足對電力質(zhì)量要求較高的設備和場所的需求 。

The working process of natural gas engines is relatively stable, with less vibration and noise. This not only reduces the impact on the surrounding environment, but also reduces the wear and failure probability of the equipment, improving its reliability and service life. In addition, its power generation quality is high, and the stability of output voltage and frequency is good, which can meet the needs of equipment and places with high requirements for power quality.

（五）靈活性強

（5） Strong flexibility

天然氣發(fā)電機組的功率范圍廣泛，從小型的幾十千瓦到大型的數(shù)兆瓦不等 ，可根據(jù)不同的用電需求和應用場景進行靈活配置 。既適用于偏遠地區(qū)的小型獨立供電系統(tǒng)，也可作為大型工業(yè)企業(yè)的自備電源，還能與其他發(fā)電設備聯(lián)合運行，組成分布式能源系統(tǒng) 。

The power range of natural gas generators is wide, ranging from small tens of kilowatts to large ones of several megawatts, and can be flexibly configured according to different electricity needs and application scenarios. It is suitable for small independent power supply systems in remote areas, and can also serve as a self owned power source for large industrial enterprises. It can also operate in conjunction with other power generation equipment to form a distributed energy system.

三、應用場景

3、 Application scenarios

（一）分布式能源系統(tǒng)

（1） Distributed Energy System

在分布式能源領域，天然氣發(fā)電機組是重要的組成部分 。它可以與太陽能、風能等可再生能源配合使用，彌補可再生能源發(fā)電的間歇性和不穩(wěn)定性 。例如，在太陽能不足的夜晚或風力較弱的時候，天然氣發(fā)電機組能夠迅速啟動，保障電力的穩(wěn)定供應 。同時，利用熱電聯(lián)產(chǎn)技術，將發(fā)電產(chǎn)生的余熱用于周邊社區(qū)的供暖、供熱水，或為商業(yè)建筑、工業(yè)廠房提供制冷和供熱服務，實現(xiàn)能源的梯級利用，提高能源利用效率 。

In the field of distributed energy, natural gas generators are an important component. It can be used in conjunction with renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power to compensate for the intermittency and instability of renewable energy generation. For example, on nights when solar energy is insufficient or when wind is weak, natural gas generators can quickly start to ensure stable power supply. At the same time, by utilizing cogeneration technology, the waste heat generated from power generation can be used for heating and supplying hot water to surrounding communities, or for providing cooling and heating services to commercial buildings and industrial plants, achieving cascading energy utilization and improving energy efficiency.

（二）備用電源

（2） Backup power supply

由于天然氣發(fā)電機組啟動迅速、運行可靠，被廣泛應用于對電力可靠性要求較高的場所作為備用電源 。如醫(yī)院、銀行、數(shù)據(jù)中心、通信基站等 。在電網(wǎng)發(fā)生故障或停電時，天然氣發(fā)電機組能夠在極短的時間內(nèi)自動啟動并投入運行，確保關鍵設備和系統(tǒng)的正常運轉(zhuǎn)，避免因停電造成的重大損失 。

Due to its fast start-up and reliable operation, natural gas generators are widely used as backup power sources in places with high requirements for electrical reliability. Such as hospitals, banks, data centers, communication base stations, etc. In the event of a power grid failure or outage, natural gas generators can automatically start and operate in a very short period of time, ensuring the normal operation of key equipment and systems and avoiding significant losses caused by power outages.

（三）小型獨立供電系統(tǒng)

（3） Small independent power supply system

在一些偏遠地區(qū)或電網(wǎng)覆蓋不到的地方，如海島、山區(qū)等，天然氣發(fā)電機組可以作為獨立的供電設備 。這些地區(qū)交通不便，獲取煤炭、燃油等燃料困難，而天然氣可以通過管道輸送或壓縮儲存運輸，相對較為便捷 。天然氣發(fā)電機組能夠為當?shù)鼐用竦纳钣秒?、小型企業(yè)的生產(chǎn)用電提供穩(wěn)定的電力保障 。

In some remote areas or places where the power grid cannot cover, such as islands, mountainous areas, etc., natural gas generators can be used as independent power supply equipment. These areas have inconvenient transportation and difficulty in obtaining fuels such as coal and fuel, while natural gas can be transported through pipelines or compressed storage, which is relatively convenient. Natural gas generators can provide stable power supply for local residents' daily electricity consumption and small businesses' production electricity.

（四）工業(yè)領域

（4） Industrial sector

在工業(yè)生產(chǎn)中，許多企業(yè)對電力和熱能都有需求 。天然氣發(fā)電機組的熱電聯(lián)產(chǎn)模式正好滿足了這一需求 。例如，食品加工、紡織、化工等行業(yè)，在生產(chǎn)過程中需要大量的蒸汽用于加熱、烘干等工藝 。天然氣發(fā)電機組在發(fā)電的同時，將產(chǎn)生的余熱轉(zhuǎn)化為蒸汽，直接供企業(yè)生產(chǎn)使用，降低了企業(yè)的能源成本 。

In industrial production, many enterprises have a demand for both electricity and heat energy. The cogeneration mode of natural gas power generation units perfectly meets this demand. For example, industries such as food processing, textiles, and chemicals require a large amount of steam for heating, drying, and other processes during production. Natural gas generators convert the waste heat generated into steam while generating electricity, which is directly supplied to enterprises for production and use, reducing their energy costs.

四、面臨挑戰(zhàn)與發(fā)展趨勢

4、 Facing challenges and development trends

盡管天然氣發(fā)電機組具有諸多優(yōu)勢，但在發(fā)展過程中也面臨一些挑戰(zhàn) 。首先，天然氣的供應穩(wěn)定性和價格波動對其發(fā)展有一定影響 。如果天然氣供應不足或價格大幅上漲，可能會增加發(fā)電成本，影響天然氣發(fā)電機組的市場競爭力 。其次，雖然天然氣發(fā)電的污染物排放量較低，但在氮氧化物等污染物的減排方面仍有進一步提升的空間 ，需要不斷研發(fā)和應用更先進的污染控制技術 。

Although natural gas power generation units have many advantages, they also face some challenges in their development process. Firstly, the stability of natural gas supply and price fluctuations have a certain impact on its development. If natural gas supply is insufficient or prices rise significantly, it may increase power generation costs and affect the market competitiveness of natural gas power generation units. Secondly, although the pollutant emissions from natural gas power generation are relatively low, there is still room for further improvement in reducing nitrogen oxides and other pollutants, and more advanced pollution control technologies need to be continuously developed and applied.
