Abstract
A co-generation system is provided that includes a heat exchanger that heats water; a heat transfer path connected with the water heat exchanger that transfers heat; a hot water storage tank connected with the water heat exchanger and the water circulation path; a hot water storage water supply apparatus that supplies water in the hot water storage tank to the water circulation path; a water supply path connected with the water circulation path; a water supply apparatus that supplies water to the water supply path; and a hot water supply heat exchanger bypassing apparatus that bypasses the water supplied to the water circulation path from the hot water storage tank through the hot water supply heat exchanger. With the co-generation system, so constructed, effective water boil heat is increased, as supplying the cold water supplied from the water service and the hot water supplied from the hot water storage tank to the hot water supply heat exchanger properly and heat exchanging with the heat medium, such as an anti-freeze solution, passing through the hot water supply heat exchanger.
