Abstract

It is analyzed the efficiency of heat conversion in the integrated electricity, heat and cooling supply of the enterprise. The installation for energy supply includes two JMS 420 GS-N.LC GE Jenbacher cogeneration gas engines manufactured as cogeneration modules with heat exchangers for removing the heat of exhaust gases, scavenge gas-air mixture, cooling water of engine and lubricating oil. The heat of hot water is transformed by the absorption lithium-bromide chiller AR-D500L2 Century into the cold, which is spent on technological needs and for the operation of the central air conditioner for cooling the incoming air of the engine room, where from it is sucked by the turbocharger of the engine. The presence of significant heat losses, which account for about 30% of the total heat removed from the cogeneration gas piston module and is due to the inconsistency of the joint operation modes of the absorption lithium-bromide chiller and the gas piston engine, was revealed. This inconsistency is caused by the contradictory conditions of their effective operation according to the temperature of the return coolant at the outlet of the absorption lithium-bromide chiller and the entrance to the engine cooling system. The thermal state of the gas piston engine is ensured by maintaining the temperature of the return coolant at the entrance to it is not higher than 70 °C. At the same time, during the transformation of the heat of the coolant into the cold in an absorption lithium-bromide chiller, the temperature decreasing in the machine is no more than 10 ... 15 °С, that is, up to 75 ... 80 °С, if the temperature of the heat coolant outlet from the cogeneration gas piston module, i.e. at the inlet of the absorption lithium-bromide chiller, 90 °С. Therefore, the return coolant is additionally cooled in the "emergency heat release" radiator by removing its heat into surroundings. It is shown the possibility of increasing the cooling capacity of the system by conversion of the return coolant exhaust heat into cold in absorption lithium-bromide and ejector chillers through the data procession of monitoring the heat conversion system in the integrated energy plant.
