Optimize a RFID-based turbine maintenance model - a preliminary study

To consolidate the balance of sustained generator and diminished maintenance cost in the power plant is one of the most desired goals of a plant administrator. This goal, in fact, can be fulfilled by a proper turbine maintenance policy. This study presented the use of total productive maintenance and the development of turbine prevention maintenance models can enhance the efficiency of equipments. The probabilistic failure analysis model can determine the maintenance cycle and best maintenance time of turbine by data analysis. In addition, it is shown that applying the radio frequency identification (RFID) in a prevention maintenance operational model could generate cost-saving effectiveness.
