Combined production of thermal and electrical energy from spark ignited generating sets.
Spark ignited gas engine drives a three phase alternator which generates electrical energy. The heat recovery system generates thermal energy from the engine cooling and flue gas systems. This type of combined electrical and thermal energy is one of the most efficient ways of using fossil or renewable fuels. Increasing demands for CHPs efficiency, minimum system downtime period and short time to market together with demanding grid codes requirements put a high pressure the control system.
ComAp's InteliSys Gas controller is designed for control of gas gen-sets and is a perfect solution for CHP control. InteliSys Gas integrates all essential controls of the gas engine into one place which significantly improves fault finding and troubleshooting, and minimises any engine downtime. Pre-programmed functions and a large inbuilt PLC interpreter gives users the freedom to design their own logic, create a unique solution for the market, and bring the solution to their customers as fast as possible. Local and remote monitoring of the whole process is also available.
