In this system, the failure rate of the component in operation isconstant, and the inspection will control all the processes of the operation. The system isinspected at random points over time to determine whether it is to be replaced. During the process,the replacement decision is based on the number of failed components at the time of inspection.展开更多

The solution methodology comprises two stages. Firstly, the CCF of the plant is developed and the most economical fuel of each set can be easily identified for any load demand. In the next stage, for the selected fuels, CCF is evaluated and the optimal scheduling is obtained. The Proposed Method (PM) has been tested on the standard ten-generation set system;each set consists of two or three fuel options. The total fuel cost obtained by the PM is compared with earlier reports in order to validate its effectiveness. The comparison clears that this approach is a promising alterna-tive for solving EDMFO problems in practical power system.展开更多
