MIKROVÄRMEKRAFTVERK för hemmabruk
My questions at issue for this report has it´s beginning in the growing problems of thenegative effects of burning fossile fuels and the rapidly growing energyprices.1. Is it possible to design a micro scale powerplant?2. Is it economically interesting for a potential customer to by such a product?The aim with this report is therefor, with the help of design work and calculations, to answerthese questions and to create a platform for building a fully functional micro scale powerplant.The material used in the report is mostly product catalogs from various industries but alsostudy course littrature about steam engines.The result of the report is that it is fully possible to design a fully functional micro scalepower plant. During the winter months, when the climate demands our houses to be heated,the relation of 8 % electricity and 90 % heat is very suiteble. Unfortunatly problems canoccure during the summer time when we do not need to heat our houses. A result ofproducing electricity is heat. When wanting electricity but not heat, the heat becomes a loss.The only way to reduce this loss is to develop a more efficient steamengine.
