CHP Generator Sets
From CHP Generator Sets
A CHP generator set is constructed from a power generator set with an added heat recovery module. The scope of power of offered CHP generator sets: 8 kWe and 10 kWt to 2.2 MWe and 2.5 MWt. Complete systems may consist of up to 32 CHP generator sets operating for one power grid and one hot water collector.
FUEL
FUEL
- natural gas
- biogas
- waste gas
- diesel fuel
- vegetable oil
Various options of transfer medium
for recovered heat:
- hot water
- saturated steam
- hot air
- thermal oil
The estimated total operation time of the system
is 120,000 hours.
The amount of unit investment expenditures mostly
depends on the power of the system and the composition
and cleanliness of the fuel and the methods of
transferring the heat power.
Potential applications of a CHP system: any place with
a simultaneous demand for electric power and heat
Potential places where a CHP system can be installed
include:
- sports facilities
- hospitals
- food processing plants
- apparel manufacturing plants
- chemical plants
- greenhouses
- breweries
- modern water treatment plants
- heating plants, local and industrial heat and power plants
- farming biogas plants
COGENERATION
(the CHP system – Combined Heat and Power) it involves simultaneous generation of electric power and heat. Our company offers systems powered by gas fuels, diesel fuelor vegetable oil . The main elements of our power installations include: gas or Diesel
combustion engine, power generator, heat exchanger system and automatic regulation and control system. Electric power is generated by generator driven by internal combustion engine.
Advantages of the CHP system
Combustion engines, on the basis of which our installations are built, are characterised by an efficiency of transforming the energy contained in the fuel into mechanical energy by a few percentage points, as compared to gas or steam turbines. Further on, in the generator, mechanical energy is transformed into electrical energy. For example, the efficiency of a combustion engine ranges from
37% to over 41%, while the efficiency of gas turbines does not exceed 35%. The rated power of the combustion engine, as compared to a gas turbine, is definitely less sensitive to ambient temperature changes. High operating flexibility, i.e. our systems can
work at variable loads ranging from 60 to 100%, with a reduction in the electrical efficiency only by 1 to 2% percentage points.
It should be emphasised that heat delivered by our systems is “for free”. This means that an appropriate amount of fuel must be provided to the engine to obtain a specific amount of electrical energy. Heat in the engine is generated, regardless of the fact whether it is recovered and used or released and dispersed. For example, under normal conditions, an engine, while generating 100 kW of mechanical power on a flywheel, also generates approx. 150 kW of heat power, out of which approx. 130 kW can be used.
Our systems allow to recover the generated heat and used it without increasing fuel consumption in any way.
