A THEORETICAL AND AN EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF A SMALL SCALE TRIGENERATION SYSTEM -A COMPARISON BETWEEN TRIGENERATION AND SEPARATE GENERATION SYSTEMS

摘要

A theoretical and an experimental investigation of a small scale trigeneration based on a diesel engine generator set is conducted. Comparing with the separate generation system, trigeneration saves primary energy input; and it reduces CO_2 gas emission to the environment. A conclusion can be drawn that trigeneration is an environment friendly method, and it is financially feasible.
