Abstract:
The increasing demand for energy now a day makes the need for saving energy one of the top priorities in industry. The district cooling system is a good concept competitive in increasing energy efficiency, reducing maintenance, increasing system reliability, and environmental friendly. District cooling system provides this by use energy which is currently wasted in industry and nature.The objective of this project is to evaluate the feasibility of a cogeneration system that utilizes the waste energy of the hot gases of a generation unit, such as a gas turbine or diesel engine, to produce electricity and chilled water for Industrial Yarmouk complex, Factory A-30. To satisfy the aim of the research the below procedure would be followed:
• Estimate the thermal load of air conditioning
• Estimate the electrical load for equipments, lighting, etc
• Determination of the appropriate generation unit for the system
• Select suitable chillers for the required cooling capacity
• Conduct an economic analysis of the project
The final results of a techno-economic feasibility study of a cogeneration system for Industrial Yarmouk Complex that carried out for Factory A-30 will meet it requirements for both electricity and air-conditioning. But mechanical system is fairly due to technical and installation consideration.
