ASHRAE
Holds Symposium on CHP for Buildings
The
American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning
Engineers (ASHRAE) held a symposium on "CHP for Buildings,"
at its meeting (January 13-16, 2002) in Atlantic City,
NJ. The titles, authors, and brief information on papers
presented at the symposium are as follows:
- Potential
CHP Technology in Commercial Buildings - Characterizing
the CHP Demonstration Building (Authors: A.
Marantan, P. Poppvic, and R. Radermacher of University
of Maryland) discussed a baseline characterization
of an all-electric commercial office building to assess
the impact of CHP systems on energy efficiency, emissions,
and indoor air quality.
(ASHRAE paper no. AC-02-18-1)
- CHP
Demonstration Projects at Federal Facilities
(Authors: S. Fischer and P. Hughes of ORNL, and S.W.
Carlson and H. Henderson of CDH Energy Corp.) Discussed
the benefits of using three 3.5 MW gas turbines with
heat recovery steam generators and a supplemental
boiler for peak loading and compared it with the existing
gas-fired steam boiler plant at Fort Bragg in North
Carolina.
(ASHRAE paper no. AC-02-18-4)
- Evaluation
of CHP Systems (Authors: A.A. Jalalzadeh-Azar,
S.J. Slayzak, and J. P. Ryan of National Renewable
Energy Laboratory) discussed evaluation of two CHP
scenarios, incorporating microturbines, for a generic
office building at three geographical locations using
dimensionless analysis.
(ASHRAE paper no. AC-02-18-3)
- Status
of Fuel Cell Systems (Authors: M.W. Ellis
of Virginia Tech and B. Gunnes of Capital One Financial
Corporation) discussed the development status, benefits,
and potential economics of CHP systems incorporating
fuel cells for buildings.
(ASHRAE paper no. AC-02-18-2)
