Summary

EXHAUSTIVE OVERVIEW OF THE STATE OF ART IN THE FIELD OF COGENERATION.

PARTICULAR ATTENTION IS PAID TO SYSTEMS BASED ON GAS TURBINES, BOTH WITH SIMPLE AND COMBINED CYCLES (IE, WITH A SECONDARY TURBINE DRIVEN BY STEAM FROM A BOILER, USING THE EXHAUSTED GAS, WITH OR WITHOUT AFTERBURNING). OTHER SYSTEMS SUCH AS STEAM TURBINES, PISTON ENGINES AND FUEL CELLS ARE ALSO DEALT WITH.
