application of cogeneration systems based gas turbine for heat and power production is increasing. because of finite natural energy resources and increasing energy demand the cost effective design of energy systems is essential. cgam problem as a cogeneration system is considered here for analyzing. two new approaches are considered, first in thermodynamic model of gas turbine and cogeneration ...

in this paper, the application of neural networks for simulation and optimization of the cogeneration systems has been presented. cgam problem, a benchmark in cogeneration systems, is chosen as a casestudy. thermodynamic model includes precise modeling of the whole plant. for simulation of the steadysate behavior, the static neural network is applied. then using dynamic neural network, plant is...

it is expected that residential units may replace   traditional heat and power production systems with cogeneration ones. among the different cogeneration systems, fuel cell based systems are a suitable choice due to their high efficiency, high power density, low emission and low noise. in this paper, a cogeneration system based on solid oxide fuel cells is examined. the system, including the f...

In this article, the first and second law analysis of diesel engine based cogeneration system was performed. Fuel utilization efficiency, rate of power, and rate of process heat of the plant were determined and various efficiencies based on both energy and exergy methods and the performance assessment parameters are defined for both the system components and the entire cogeneration plant. The o...

This paper presents the proper underfrequency relay settings to enhance the operation of industrial power systems with cogeneration facilities. A cogeneration unit was installed in the plant in 1996 to supply the power demand of the plant. The cogeneration unit always faces the shutdown problem when a severe fault occurs on the nearby Taipower network. It is, therefore, necessary to investigate...

Cogeneration can improve energy utilization efficiency significantly. In this paper, a new ammonia-water system is proposed for the cogeneration of refrigeration and power. The plant operates in a parallel combined cycle mode with an ammonia-water Rankine cycle and an ammonia refrigeration cycle, interconnected by absorption, separation, and heat transfer processes. The performance was evaluate...

The purpose of the paper is to analyze the transient stability of an industrial cogeneration system in Hsin-Chu Science-Based Industrial Park using ETAP software. The cogeneration system is installed two 161kV/161kV high-impendence transformers with tap-changer to connect with TPC for decreasing the short-circuit fault current and increasing the fault critical clearing time. The transient stabi...

This paper proposes optimal operational planning for cogeneration system (CGS) using particle swarm optimization (PSO). CGS is usually connected to various facilities such as refrigerators, reservoirs, and cooling towers. In order to generate optimal operational planning for CGS, startup/shutdown status and/or input/output values of the facilities for each control interval should be determined....
