Statistical approach for analyzing the transient reliability of boiler System using CAS Mathematica

Abstract

The focal point of this manuscript is to address the reliability analysis of Boiler unit in the Thermal power plant driven from coal. It is made up of six subunits laid out in series and parallel manner, alongwith some standby units. The system under consideration is modelled in transient state aided by Markov birth-death process and CAS Mathematica is deployed to solve the resulting complicated system of probabilistic equations arising out of 8 working states.
