THE CAPABILITY OF THE PROCESSES OF THERMAL ENERGY GENERATION -THE ANALYSIS OF THE PROCESS STABILITY

Abstract

The capability of the generation and supplying process of the thermal energy represents one of the fundamental criterion referring to the achievement of quality and performance of the system. In the previous studies, it has been noticed that for an increasing trend of the performance the liability, with its components, the average time of proper functioning, durability, maintainability, security and generally safety in the system functioning are highly important. The performance of a production and distribution system of thermal energy needs to be evaluated. This is given by certain characteristics, especially important being those which represent exigencies of comfort, for example of the thermal one, and economic exigencies in exploitation, predominant being the fuel consumption and implicitly its cost. The achievement of a specified ambient temperature in terms of degree and maintenance in time for all users in the conditions of a humidity degree and a rate of ventilation equally specified, constitutes the essential indices of the system’s capacity and implicitly of the production process and distribution of the product.
