Information

1. Purpose of model

This function allocates the specific massflowrate of carbon dioxide equivalents of a coupled thermal and eletrical process to the thermal and electrical side based on the thermal credits method.

2. Level of detail, physical effects considered, and physical insight

No physical effects considered.

3. Limits of validity

(no remarks)

4. Interfaces

(no remarks), just input and output vectors.

5. Nomenclature

(no elements)

6. Governing Equations

The specific mass flow rate of carbon dioxide equivalents is allocated as follows:

m_flowSpecTh = m_flowSpecThRef * eta_th

m_flowSpecEl = m_flowSpec - m_flowSpecTh.

The output vector provides the specific mass flow rate of carbon dioxide emissions for the thermal side in first and for the electrical side in second place

7. Remarks for Usage

no remarks.

8. Validation

No validation needed.
