RELIABILITY AND PROFIT ANALYSIS OF REPAIRABLE EDIBLE OIL PLANT

In daily life, edible oil is necessary for making food to human. This paper described the reliability, availability and profit values of the edible oil plant by using regenerative point graphical technique. Generally, it contains four units such that bleacher (B), deodorizer (D), thermo fluid boiler (C) and pressured filter (A). The whole refinery plant work properly when all units work properly. Only unit (A) is in partially failed state as well as complete failed state and other remaining units are in complete failed state. The system works when unit is in operative state or partially failed state. The system fails when one unit completely fails. A technician is always available to repair the failed unit. In this paper, the failure time and repair time follows general distributions. The regenerative point graphical technique with stochastic process is used to explore the reliability measures such that mean time to system failure, availability of the system, and profit values.
