Although this requirement is appreciated to varying degrees by asset owners, applied research leading to a systematic development of such a maintenance strategy is the need of the day. Such a strategy should also adopt a wholesome ＂systemic＂ approach so that the realization of the overall objectives of maintenance is maximized. E-maintenance has several potential benefits for large engineering plants. In this paper, a three pronged strategy is suggested for the successful implementation of e-maintenance for LEPs. Firstly, an integrated condition and time based maintenance framework is proposed for LEPs. Secondly, reference is drawn to models for condition and time based maintenance at systemic levels. As a part of the ab initio development of a condition monitoring system for a LEP, one of the characteristics of the condition monitoring system, namely, predictability, is discussed in detail as a sample for a systemic study. Thirdly, emphasis is laid on the information and expertise available in the domain of plant design, operation and maintenance and the same is tapped for incorporation in maintenance decision making.展开更多

China’s electric power industry attained great achievement in technology and economical results during the past eight years from 1987-1995. The total national installed generating capacity increased from 102.897 GW in 1987 to more than 200 GW in March, 1995.展开更多

The loess thickness ranges from several meters to several hundred meters along the river’s terraces to those geomorphologic plateaus. In geology, "China Loess" has become a geologic term, because the loess in China has evolved with the widest distribution and greatest thickness in the world, and is also a typical and significant deposit in Quaternary Period.展开更多

The key is Hybrid H.S.T. for generator driving by a higher the speed and a smaller the torque of the piston pump which can do over 360 degrees rotation free of the pendulum motion. This idea will bring the non-shock operation to the moving body type wave power conversion and when the Pendulor applies with the antenna principle, it will have a possibility to convert safe and cheap electricity from the ocean by this technology.展开更多
