  • Thermal Power Plant Performance Analysis

    Edited by Gilberto Francisco Martha de Souza ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    The analysis of the reliability and availability of power plants is frequently based on simple indexes that do not take into account the criticality of some failures used for availability analysis. This criticality should be evaluated based on concepts of reliability which consider the effect of a component failure on the performance of the entire plant. System reliability analysis tools provide a ... Read more
