Condition Assessment of Regenerative Heater Based on Fuzzy Comprehensive Evaluation

Abstract:

In order to evaluate the performance of regenerative heater comprehensively and scientifically, the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model of regenerative heater is proposed on the basis of fuzzy mathematic theory as well as the relevant background knowledge of the problem. In the fist-level fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model, the evaluation indicator system was established taking the influence of the turbine load into consideration. The definition of “excellence degree” was given to show the relative approach degree between the quantitative indicator and the excellent indicator. Membership functions of fuzzy evaluation set were constructed based on the excellence degree. Knowledge in terms of twenty experts’ experience and historical data was used to determine the indicator weight set. In the second-level indicator fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model, four composition operator models were selected to conduct the fist-level evaluation. The proposed model turns out to be feasible and effective by three typical load conditions.
