["Griffith, Brent" <brent.griffith@xxxxxxxx>]

There is an example file called MicroCogeneration.idf.

The CHP unit needs to be part of an ElectricLoadCenter.

Hi to everyone.

 

I am using a Generator micro CHP as a replacement of a boiler for a domestic heat.

firstly I create an idf model for a house with baseboard heating radiators feed up from a boiler. The model run successfully and i get very realistic results.

The next step was to replace the boiler unit with a micro CHP in order to make a comparison.

The simulation run again successfully but when i try to obtain results as the gas consumption of the CHP unit the results was simple zero. meaning that the unit dose not work.

I used the drawing tool which shown that the only change was just the replacement of the boiler to a chp.
