The optimal coefficient of the share of cogeneration depends first of all on the share of the heat required for preparing the hot tap water. The final result of investigations is an empirical equation describing the influence of the ratio of the heat flux for the production of hot tap water to the maximum flux for space heating and ventilation, as well as the share of chemical energy of biomass in the fuel mixture on the optimal value of the share of cogeneration in district heating systems. The approach presented in the paper may be applied both in back-pressure combined heat and power (CHP) plants and in extraction-condensing CHP plants.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Influence of biomass cofiring on the optimal coefficient of the cogeneration share in a district heating system}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/94520/PDF/07_paper.pdf}, doi={10.2478/aoter-2014-0007}, keywords={cogeneration, combined heat, combined power, district heating systems, guarantees of origin, biomass co-firing}, }
