Effect of Operation Strategies on the Economic and Environmental Performance of a Micro Gas Turbine Trigeneration System in a Tropical Region

This study investigates the effect of employment of different operation strategies on the economic and environmental performance of a micro gas turbine trigeneration system (MGT-TGS). The MGT-TGS covers power, heating and cooling load of a selected building in a tropical region. The prime movers use...
