Preventive maintenance and reactive maintenance are an extremely critical part of any fleet operations. By creating a Preventive Maintenance program to decrease the incidents of equipment arriving late for the PM’s they are due for, this program can be an integral part of cost savings and reduction of equipment downtime for repairs.

Reliability Centered Maintenance for minimizing integrity failure by Bhavesh Shukla at APAC 2015 Process Safety Management Conference 9th March 2015 Singapore.
Overview of Lean Manufacturing types of production , comparison between Batch vs Continuous Flow , how to convert batch to continuous flow and the savings
Reliability-centered Maintenance is a maintenance philosophy that includes a systematic approach to determining how to maintain equipment safely and economically. RCM is an invaluable business solution for companies
In situations where equipment failure is inevitable, the structured RCM process will ensure a maintenance strategy that will minimise or eliminate the consequences.
The central problem addressed by the RCM process is how to determine which scheduled maintenance tasks, if any, should be assigned to equipment, and how frequently
Performance and Efficiency Analysis with Value Stream Mapping for Increasing ...Eylül Ceren Altın
The aim of the research is to analyze the performance and efficiency of the production processes of dish-washing machines in order to increase the production capacity. Initially, the production processes of a selected dish-washer model in the production line are observed, and the duration of all process steps are measured via time study. Then the process parameters, i.e. cycle time, changeover, inventories as well as the information flows are analyzed with the Current State Value Stream Map. Improvement opportunities based on findings are discussed with the company managers. Afterwards, a simulation model of the system is developed via Arena Simulation Software. Various improvement scenarios are simulated, before-after situations are compared with the simulation model, and the one giving the best output is displayed in the Future State VSM.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Hybrid optimization of pumped hydro system and solar- Engr. Abdul-Azeez.pdffxintegritypublishin
Advancements in technology unveil a myriad of electrical and electronic breakthroughs geared towards efficiently harnessing limited resources to meet human energy demands. The optimization of hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems plays a pivotal role in utilizing natural resources effectively. This initiative not only benefits humanity but also fosters environmental sustainability. The study investigated the design optimization of these hybrid systems, focusing on understanding solar radiation patterns, identifying geographical influences on solar radiation, formulating a mathematical model for system optimization, and determining the optimal configuration of PV panels and pumped hydro storage. Through a comparative analysis approach and eight weeks of data collection, the study addressed key research questions related to solar radiation patterns and optimal system design. The findings highlighted regions with heightened solar radiation levels, showcasing substantial potential for power generation and emphasizing the system's efficiency. Optimizing system design significantly boosted power generation, promoted renewable energy utilization, and enhanced energy storage capacity. The study underscored the benefits of optimizing hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems for sustainable energy usage. Optimizing the design of solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems as examined across diverse climatic conditions in a developing country, not only enhances power generation but also improves the integration of renewable energy sources and boosts energy storage capacities, particularly beneficial for less economically prosperous regions. Additionally, the study provides valuable insights for advancing energy research in economically viable areas. Recommendations included conducting site-specific assessments, utilizing advanced modeling tools, implementing regular maintenance protocols, and enhancing communication among system components.
COLLEGE BUS MANAGEMENT SYSTEM PROJECT REPORT.pdfKamal Acharya
The College Bus Management system is completely developed by Visual Basic .NET Version. The application is connect with most secured database language MS SQL Server. The application is develop by using best combination of front-end and back-end languages. The application is totally design like flat user interface. This flat user interface is more attractive user interface in 2017. The application is gives more important to the system functionality. The application is to manage the student’s details, driver’s details, bus details, bus route details, bus fees details and more. The application has only one unit for admin. The admin can manage the entire application. The admin can login into the application by using username and password of the admin. The application is develop for big and small colleges. It is more user friendly for non-computer person. Even they can easily learn how to manage the application within hours. The application is more secure by the admin. The system will give an effective output for the VB.Net and SQL Server given as input to the system.

Optimization of preventive maintenance to reduce maintenance costs and increase equipment availability
1.
2. What is preventive maintenance?
· Overview of the types of preventive
maintenance
· Identifying ideal preventive maintenance
· A practical approach to optimise equipment
availability
· Techniques for optimisation
3. Maintenance
All activities that maintain facilities and
equipment in good working order so that
a system can perform as designed to
achieve production/services
4. To keep production systems in good working
order at minimal cost.
5. Reactive Maintenance:
Breakdown maintenance
Reactive approach; dealing with breakdowns or
problems when they occur
Proactive Maintenance:
Preventive maintenance
Proactive approach; reducing breakdowns through
a program of lubrication, adjustment, cleaning,
inspection, and replacement of worn parts
6. Production capacity is reduced
Orders are delayed
No production
Overhead continues
Cost per unit increases
Quality issues
Product may be damaged
Safety issues
Injury to employees
Injury to customers
7. Preventive maintenance: goal is to reduce the
incidence of breakdowns or failures in the plant or
equipment to avoid the associated costs
Preventive maintenance is periodic
Result of planned inspections
According to calendar
After predetermined number of hours
All actions are prevent to failure
8. Predictive maintenance
An attempt to determine when best to perform
preventive maintenance activities
Total productive maintenance
JIT approach where all stakeholders perform
preventive maintenance on the machines they operate
11. Frequency of breakdown
If the average cost of a breakdown is $1,000, and
the cost of preventative maintenance is $1,250 per
month, should we use preventive maintenance?
