[EnergyPlus_Support] Problem with CHP - no heat generation

[<dchrista1@xxxxxxxx>]

Dear all,



I am trying to model a commercial building with two thermally driven CHP units (400kW each). I modelled them as combustion turbines and in the ElectricLoadCenter:Distribution I chose FollowThermal as operation scheme type. However, there is no heat generation while the electricity generation is extremely high. 



I would like to ask you if you know how can I model them in EnergyPlus? Should I use a different generator object?



Thank you in advance,

Despoina
