Abstract
The objective of this work was to perform an ex-economic analysis in the distributed generation plant located at the Hotel Caruaru Park and Shopping for the implementation of a cogeneration system. The hotel and shopping has electric generators that are powered by internal combustion engines, which operate on the second Diesel Cycle and produce a maximum output power of 3960 KVA. An exergetic analysis of the available energy in exhaust gases at the exit of the motors was carried out, being directed to the drive of a cogeneration system using a vapor absorption refrigeration machine and a water heating system. The generators are activated at peak times when electricity has its highest cost, the cogeneration system would allow in addition to the reduction of the cost of electricity in the peak hours also benefit from the decrease of the electric consumption in the conventional refrigeration system of the Hotel and Shopping. The modeling of the system and the simulation in the EES (Engineer Equation Solver) were performed, the results showed that it is possible to implement a cogeneration system for water heating with little return time.
