Operability analysis of a magnesium oxide/water chemical heat pump for cogeneration.

Author(s) : KATO Y., OKUDA Y., YOSHIZAWA Y.

Summary

The operability of a chemical heat pump using a magnesium oxide/water reaction system was demonstrated experimentally as a chemical heat storage system for use in conjunction with a cogeneration system. The heat pump was expected to be applicable in decentralized cogeneration systems using gas and diesel engines, or fuel cells and micro gas turbines, by chemically storing the exhaust heat from those engines. The heat pump system had a potential to contribute to load levelling and to enhance the energy efficiency of the cogeneration system by storing and utilizing surplus heat from the exhaust gas.
