The Maintenance Strategy for Optimizing Distribution Transformer Life Cycle Cost

During the operation, the distribution transformer performance will deteriorate. The maintenance is an essential task in enhancing the safety of distribution transformer. Based on equal deterioration theory, the relationship among distribution transformer failure rate in each period of maintenance was deduced. After analyzing the maintenance costs and the failure costs in detail, the model of o...

Analysis and Optimization Design of a Solar Water Heating System Based on Life Cycle Cost Using a Genetic Algorithm

This paper presents an optimization method to design a solar water heating (SWH) system based on life cycle cost (LCC). A genetic algorithm is employed to optimize its configuration and sizing as the optimization technique. To ensure that the optimal solution obtained from the proposed method is a practical design, three constraint conditions, including the energy balance, solar fraction, and a...
