Análisis del plan de mantenimiento preventivo para generadores de turbina a gas de hasta 5 MW con base a la norma IEEE std. 67.

Abstract

The thermal generation plants over time have proven to be more efficient in the country's energy industry, far from the environmental pollution that generates its operation, also have greater advantages over hydroelectric power plants, which make them more profitable; However, in order to maintain its efficiency, it is necessary to have an efficient maintenance plan that guarantees the reliability of its main component, such as the electric generator and, consequently, the stability of the electrical system; Based on the above, the international community has achieved the standardization of recommendations and maintenance procedures that have served as a guide for the improvement of generator maintenance programs. It is estimated that maintenance costs of equipment in the industry occupy 40% of the annual budget of a company, so, being so important to maintain the equipment within the budget of an industry, the maintenance plans also constitute a improvement in production efficiency due to equipment downtime caused by problems or lack of maintenance. Being able to analyze the failures that have occurred or that are likely to occur, in addition to the high costs of equipment loss, make possible the reliability of a maintenance plan, based on current international regulations, this project provides actions to follow for the correct maintenance plan of the electric generators of the thermal generation plants.
