Abstract
This paper investigates the impact of opportunistic maintenance strategy on power equipment maintenance scheduling under economic dependence. The model focuses on power equipment with two types of failures: random failure and deterioration failure. Unlike previous research which didn’t consider opportunistic maintenance between different failures modes, opportunistic maintenance strategy is proposed in this paper. In the opportunistic maintenance strategy, whenever random failure occurs, decision has to be made on whether deterioration failure is preventively maintained based on the degree of equipment deterioration and economic dependence. Firstly, Markov process is used to describe equipment state-space diagram. And then, in order to determine the optimal inspection rate, preventive maintenance threshold and opportunistic maintenance threshold of power equipment, the analytical expressions of inspection cost, maintenance cost, repair cost and outage cost are quantified. Finally, the total cost is minimized to get the optimal maintenance strategy. Case studies demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed model.
