Résumé

Trigeneration is the production of heat, cooling and power from one system. It can improve the financial and environmental benefits of combined heat and power (CHP) by using the heat output from the CHP unit to drive a cooling cycle, as demonstrated in existing large-scale installations. However, small-scale systems of a few kW(e) output present technological challenges. This paper presents the design and analysis of possible trigeneration systems based on a gas engine mini-CHP unit [5.5 kW(e)] and an ejector cooling cycle. Analysis shows that an overall efficiency around 50% could be achieved with systems designed for applications with simultaneous requirements for heat and cool. While using part of the CHP electrical output into the cooling cycle boosts the cooling capacity, it does not improve the overall efficiency and increases the CO2 emissions of the system. Emissions savings compared to traditional systems could be achieved with improvements of the heat transfer from CHP to cooling cycle. [Reprinted with permission from Elsevier. Copyright, 2006].
