An Online Reliability Analysis Method for Marine Turbochargers
As a key component of marine engines,turbochargers work under harsh conditions and are prone to various malfunctions.At present,the monitoring of turbochargers mainly relies on alarms of thermal parame-ters,which cannot represent the turbochargers'status timely and effectively.To solve these issues,this paper proposes an online reliability analysis method for turbochargers based on the three parameters Weibull distribu-tion model.By utilizing the turbochargers'built-in signals and historical fault information,a Weibull distribu-tion model can be established and it will show the crew the reliability and failure rate curves,which will help a lot for the turbochargers'maintenance plan.
