A fundamental graph-and-math based methodology to develop
engineering-economic models of cogeneration systems is reported here.
This report has two parts. In Part 1, the CHP Demand and Supply plane is
developed; Technology T and System S lines are introduced; and several
design and evaluation considerations are discussed. Part 2 (forthcoming)
will describe the states of nature of an interconnected CHP system and will
prescribe a set of linear equations for the economic modeling of CombinedHeat-and-Power plants. As a whole, the underlying models will be instrumental to build further cogeneration system analysis, design, evaluation
and optimization models and programs. Future articles will report further
developments.
