Operation Management of a GTPPS Based on Field Failure Data: A Case Study
نویسندگان
چکیده
Reliability analysis for Gas turbine power plant over a period of 66-month was carried out. The most important failure modes units were identified and the descriptive statistics at failure and machine level were calculated. Several theoretical distributions were applied and best fit of failure data was identified. The reliability and hazard rate models of the failure data were determined to provide an estimate of the current operation management (i.e. maintenance policy, training, spare parts) and improve the line efficiency. It was found out that (a) the availability of the Gas turbine power plant unit (taken for case study) is 94.80%, (b) the failures due to mechanical and other causes amount to 45.1% of all the failures of the machine, (c) the time-between-failure (TBF) was drastically decreased there by suggesting that the probability to fail increased and the current maintenance policy should be revised, and (d) the failure times follow the lognormal distribution whereas the times-to-repair (TTR) a failure comply with the exponential distribution.

Reliability Analysis of Switches and Crossings – A Case Study in Swedish Railway
It is reported that switches and crossings (S&C) are one of the subsystems that cause the most delays on Swedish Railways while accounting for at least 13% of maintenance costs. It is the main reason for choosing to base this study on this subsystem. Intelligent data processing allows understanding the real reliability characteristics of the assets to be maintained. The first objective of this...

متن کاملDevelopment of a mechanical earth model in an Iranian off-shore gas field
Wellbore instability is a quite common event during drilling, and causes many problems such as stuck pipe and lost circulation. It is primarily due to the inadequate understanding of the rock properties, pore pressure, and earth stress environment prior to well construction. This study aims to use the existing relevant logs, drilling, and other data from offset wells to construct a precise mech...
