Cogeneration Process Heat Pump Boiler Process Heater Thermal energy that is required by some industries. Process heat is usually supplied by steam at 5-7 atm and ºC. Industries that use large amount of process heat also consume a large amount of electric power.
Cogeneration Cogeneration is the production of more than one useful form of energy from the same energy source. Turbine Pump Boiler Process Heater
Cogeneration Optimum Condition Condenser Turbine P 1 P 2 Boiler Process Heater Expansion Valve m 4 = m 6 m 5 = m 7 = 0
Cogeneration No Load Condenser Turbine P 1 P 2 Boiler Process Heater Expansion Valve m 5 = m 6 = 0
Cogeneration Peak Load Condenser Turbine P 1 P 2 Boiler Process Heater Expansion Valve m 4 = m 5
