Abstract

The relevance of the use of thermal power plants for the generation of thermal and electric energy on the territory of the Russian Federation is revealed, taking into account its geographical and climatic features. The substantiation of the importance of the process of maintenance and repair in relation to boiler units, which are operated at thermal power plants, is given. Difficulties accompanying the practical implementation of this process are identified. The influence of the identified difficulties on the existing shortcomings in the process of maintenance and repair of boiler equipment and the technological pipelines connecting them and pipelines of steam and hot water is shown. The goal of the study is set, which is aimed at eliminating the identified objective difficulties and the tasks are formulated, the solution of which will contribute to the achievement of the goal. The necessity of developing specialized software for managing the process of maintenance and repair of equipment and pipelines of boiler units of combined heat and power plants is substantiated. The methodology of the work is based on the development of digital models of pipelines and boiler equipment, as well as algorithms aimed at processing the parameters of digital models. The software implementation of the developed models and algorithms is made by means of object-oriented programming in the form of a client-server application for the Windows operating system. The description of the results of software development aimed at solving the set tasks is given. Examples of some dialog boxes accompanying the functioning of the developed software are given, as well as examples of created digital models of boiler equipment and their individual elements. The practical application of the research results contributes to an increase in the degree of digitalization of industrial production in general and energy production in particular. The results obtained in the framework of this work, in the form of software, can be used to accompany the process of maintenance and repair of boiler equipment of combined heat and power plants. With appropriate adaptation, the results obtained can also be applied to boiler equipment, pipelines and apparatus that are used in the chemical, petrochemical and oil refining industries.
