Thermoeconomic Analysis in Advanced Cogeneration Systems in Buildings

In this work thermoeconomics is applied to a central thermal system covering three buildings that consists of cogeneration engine, an aerothermal heat pump and natural gas condensing boiler. Cogeneration systems integrated with renewable energy technologies are very attractive solutions in the building sector. Nevertheless, use together active envelope solutions, such as one encountered work, scarce efforts enhance synergies between both even scarcer. A connected so-called solar wall provide hot air photovoltaic supplies electricity consumed by pump. Thermoeconomics evaluate cost flows based on its energy-quality. Hence, innovative complex can be analysed diagnosed methodology. As result, presented effective tool for detailed study distribution key enhancing efficiency.
