Abstract
The performance numbers obtained reveal the differences in efficiencies measured at steady-state on the one hand and following the DIN 4709 test cycle on the other hand. While the deviations in electrical efficiencies are small, thermal efficiencies according to DIN 4709 fall below steady state data by 3-6 percentage points. This is attributed to transient thermal losses and heat losses from the storage tank, which are not included in steady state and separate testing of the CHP unit, only.
