A new HVAC system based on cogeneration by an internal-combustion machine.

Author(s) : LAZZARIN R. M., LONGO G. A., ROMAGNONI P. C.

Summary

The plant is equiped with a reciprocating internal-combustion gas engine which produces electric energy with heat recovery from the jacket water heat and the exhaust. The electric energy serves the lighting, for the building and individual room reversible air-water heat pumps that satisfy mainly sensible cooling and a fraction of the winter heating load. An open cycle absorption system which treats the primary air, meets the summer latent load and year round ventilation requirements. In winter the system operates as an open cycle heat pump. The regeneration of the sorbent is obtained by the internal-combustion engine heat recovery. The proposed system is analysed comparing its performance with a traditional plant both in summer and winter mode.
