Abstract

Design and operation of complex systems for combined cooling, heating and power generation (CCHP) are always a matter of matching performance and demand characteristics of a thermal system set to supply electrical, cooling and heating loads, according to specific usage demands. Equipment selection and operation require the characterization of power, heating and cooling load demands, and their time variation during years, seasons, months and even hours or minutes. The paper aims at utilizing a general model for complex CCHP systems. The proposed model is based on the general theory of exergy cost and structural coefficients of internal links. A general model is presented, and a simple hypothetical cogeneration case is studied. The system operates with two heat engines, with waste heat recovery driving a chiller, in order to meet electrical power and refrigeration loads.
