“…Furthermore, thermographic images are shown the transfer of heat from the heat source to the radiator through the regenerator [2]. In another paper is presented the laboratory cogeneration thermal power plant based on the air-cooled internal combustion engine [3]. Mathematical modeling and simulation studies of cogeneration units which are a diesel engine, heat exchanger, synchronous generator and gas turbine are examined in detail [4].…”

The effective usage of energy is an important factor in our country and world. The cogeneration system is one of the methods for the effective usage of energy. The cogeneration system in recent technology is about 30% more effective in reducing fuel consumption and carbon footprint compared to the power and heat production efficiency for traditional systems feeding by fossil fuels. Over the last decade, extensive research has been undertaken on the optimization and use of low-capacity internal combustion gas engines in micro-combined heat-power systems. Problems such as the technology used in the micro-cogeneration system, fuel type and performance, efficiency of the system, utilization of different fuel types, noise, emission, maintenance problems have not been solved yet. In recent years, intensive studies have been carried out on the fuel cells that are being used for the cogeneration system, but the cost and the low life span of fuel cell cogeneration systems are preventing it from becoming widespread. With the proposed system, it will be easily applied in small scale places such as houses, offices, campuses, hospitals, shopping malls, and electricity and heat production efficiency will be used effectively for low CO 2 emission. In this paper, the integration of an internal combustion engine which has 9.8kW and 1500 revolutions per minute (rpm) properties, a synchronous generator and grid connection have been successfully achieved. The simulated engine specifications are that three-cylinder and 4-stroke otto cycle. Also, injection type and fuel oil specifications of this engine are carburization and natural gas respectively. The performance results of the proposed system have been obtained by using MATLAB/Simulink.
