THE USE OF DETAILED SIMULATION FOR THE STUDY OF THE FEASIBILITY OF COGENERATION AT A UNIVERSITY CAMPUS.

Author(s) : GUINN G. R.

Summary

THE PAPER ILLUSTRATES THE USE OF A PUBLIC DOMAIN DIGITAL SIMULATION TO EVALUATE PERFORMANCE OF 2 COGENERATION SYSTEMS FOR A SMALL UNIVERSITY CAMPUS. THE SIMULATION USED A FULL YEAR OF HOURLY STEAM AND ELECTRIC LOAD DATA, ALONG WITH HOURLY WEATHER DATA, TO DETERMINE THE COMBINED EFFECTS OF ENERGY DEMANDS AND CLIMATIC VARIATION ON SYSTEM PERFORMANCE. THE SIMULATION PROVED VALUABLE IN PROVIDING THE CAPABILITY TO IDENTIFY A CONTROL MODE FOR THE WASTE HEAT RECOVERY CHILLER THAT RESULTED IN AN 18.7% IMPROVEMENT IN EFFICIENCY OF THE INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE CONCEPT.
