Contribution to the development of the simulation model for the rotary cap burner in the marine steam boiler

摘要

This paper presents the simulation model for determining the intervals of preventive replacement of the system's components. The application of the Weibull distribution has been proved to be efficient in the approximation of many forms of delay, while numerical integration supported by Simpson formula and Fortran software has been applied to simulate optimum values of the preventive replacement of the components of the rotary cap burner SAACKE, type SKV 60 in the marine steam boiler, on the basis of the available data gathered through the system's exploitation and through empirical assumptions.
