Abstract

In the present paper a probabilistic method for stochastic modelling and performance evaluation of a feeding unit is suggested. The paper plant consists of various units like feeding, pulping unit, bleaching unit, screening unit and paper production unit. Feeding unit is one of the paper plant's most significant functional units, consisting of three repairable subunits. Using Markov process, differential equations are created after drawing transition diagram and these models are then used to discover the feeding unit's availability by considering the repair and failure information acquired from maintenance personnel. Based upon the various performance values obtained for each subunit priority ranking is formulated for blower subunit.
