Consider a system with 10 identical components, all of which must work for the system to function. Determine the reliability of the system if the reliability of each component is 0.97. Assume components fail independently. Suppose we want a system reliability of 0.95, what should be the minimum reliability of each component?
Several geothermal power plants are in operation in the United States and more are being built...
Several geothermal power plants are in operation in the United States and more are being built since the heat source of a geothermal plant is hot geothermal water, which is “free energy.” An 8-MW geothermal power plant is being considered at a location where geothermal water at 160°C is available. Geothermal water is to serve as the the heat source for a closed Rankine power cycle with R-134a as the working fluid. Specify suitable temperatures and pressures for the cycle,...
