In a conventional power plant, waste heat in the form of turbine exhaust gases or condenser cooling water is rejected to the environment. With a cogeneration facility, a large portion of the waste heat is recovered and utilized by an adjacent facility which requires large amounts of heat. 1, record 1, English, - waste%20heat

Avec les centrales électriques classiques, on perd la chaleur des gaz de combustion des turbines ou de l'eau de refroidissement des condenseurs que l'on rejette dans l'environnement. Avec la cogénération, une importante partie de cette chaleur résiduelle est récupérée et utilisée dans une installation adjacente dont l'exploitation nécessite d'importantes quantités de chaleur. 1, record 1, French, - chaleur%20r%C3%A9siduelle

Bilan d'énergie de la machine MF. En vertu du premier principe de la Thermodynamique, il y a conservation de l'énergie : c.à.d que la quantité de chaleur rejetée au condenseur (qc) doit être égale à la chaleur extraite à l'évaporateur (q0) et plus le travail (wth) consommé pour faire tourner le compresseur. 3, record 2, French, - chaleur%20rejet%C3%A9e%20au%20condenseur
