Potential emissions reductions from the use of dual-combined heat and power systems in different climate conditions

In this paper, the potential carbon dioxide emissions (CDE) reduction from the use of a combined heat and power system with two power generation units (D-CHP) is examined for a restaurant building in nine different climate conditions. The performance of the D-CHP system is evaluated on the basis of CDE and operational cost savings. In addition, the results from the D-CHP optimised scheme are compared with the optimised results of a base-loaded CHP (BL-CHP) system and a CHP system operated following the electric load (CHP-FEL). Results show that the D-CHP system produces greater savings over BL-CHP and CHP-FEL for most of the locations examined, whether optimised based on CDE or based on cost. Moreover, the effect of the emissions and cost spark spreads for each location on the D-CHP system performance is analysed. Results indicate that higher spark spreads are shown to yield greater savings for all CHP configurations.     

Combined heat and power systems with dual power generation units and thermal storage

The objective of this paper is to study the performance of a combined heat and power (CHP) system that uses two power generation units (PGU). In addition, the effect of thermal energy storage is evaluated for the proposed dual‐PGU CHP configuration (D‐CHP). Two scenarios are evaluated in this paper. In the first scenario, one PGU operates at base‐loading condition, while the second PGU operates following the electric load. In the second scenario, one PGU operates at base‐loading condition, while the second PGU operates following the thermal load. The D‐CHP system is modeled for the same building in four different locations to account for variation of the electric and thermal loads due to weather data. The D‐CHP system results are compared with the reference building by using conventional technology to determine the benefits of this proposed system in terms of operational cost and carbon dioxide emissions. The D‐CHP system results, with and without thermal storage, are also compared with that of single‐PGU CHP systems operating following the electric load (FEL), following the thermal load (FTL), and base‐loaded (BL). Results indicate that the D‐CHP system operating either FEL or FTL in general provides better results than a single‐PGU CHP system operating FEL, FTL, or BL. The addition of thermal storage enhances the potential benefits from D‐CHP system operation in terms of operational cost savings and emissions savings. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
