Abstract

This study presents some developed energetic and exergetic assessment indicators to analyze the exergetic performance evaluation of a trigeneration system with a micro gas turbine engine (MICTRIGEN) fueled by natural gas. The energy efficiency, electrical to heating ratio, electrical to cooling ratio, cooling factor and heating factor are determined to be 66.67%, 2.062, 2.857, 0.419 and 0.581, respectively. On the other hand, the exergy efficiency, improved exergy efficiency, fuel exergy depletion ratio, productivity lack ratio, exergetic improvement potential, waste exergy improvement potential ratio, fuel exergy improvement potential ratio, waste exergy cost rate, environmental effect factor, exergetic sustainability index, sustainable efficiency factor and ecological effect factor of the system are estimated to be 38.42%, 48.55%, 61.58%, 160.28%, 133.69 kW, 33.88%, 20.86%, 1.144×10 -3 kW/$, 1.603, 0.624, 1.624 and 2.603, respectively.
