A closed-form expression for the optimal capacity of CHP
In this memorandum the optimal capacity of Combined Heat and Power (CHP) is derived, using a simple model with an analytical solution.
The solution is expressed as the fraction of the time during which the heat demand exceeds the optimal CHP heat production capacity.
