The reliability of the GTPPS were analyzed based on a five and half -year failure database. Such reliability has been estimated by selecting Proper model and different models for repairable system analysis were discussed. The reliability estimation by using Nonhomogenious process and Homogenous renewal Process are explained. Non Homogeneous Process was further divided into Power law Process and...

The present paper deals with the opportunities for the availability simulation modelling and maintenance decision making in thermal power plant. These opportunities will be identified by evaluation of a simulation model to be built for the steam and water analysis system (SWAS) of a thermal power plant. This feasibility study covers two areas: development of an availability simulation model and...

For the continuous operation in another 20 or more years from aged thermal power generating units that have already been operated for 30 years, Fuji Electric has replaced a two-cylinder reheat type turbine with sophisticated single-cylinder reheat type turbine, were reused the existing foundation and nearly all the auxiliary machinery as counter-measures of life prolongation of the plant. By re...

in a steam power plant, the temperature of the cooling water leaving the condenser for recyclingshould decrease. this is achieved in a cooling tower. the heller cooling tower does not require waterfor operation, thus, it is a suitable system for use in thermal power plants throughout iran. wind is anenvironmental factor that unfavorably affects the performance of a cooling tower. previous studi...
