Análise dos custos do ciclo de vida utilizando a simulação de monte carlo, parâmetros de confiabilidade e estratégias específicas de manutenção

Abstract

Already for some years now, there has been a global and conscious growth, that the world’s resources are finite and that they should be used with minimal waste, as they do not harm as the future. Rational use of electricity can contribute directly or indirectly to changing forms of environmental pollution and at the same time as the user uses or uses the benefit. Currently, it is estimated that around 10 billion centrifugal pumps are in use worldwide and pumping systems consume about 1/5 of all stored electricity on the globe. Regardless of the application, be it domestic, trade, agriculture, infrastructure or industrial for food processing, chemicals, petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals and mechanical industrials. The modern world does not exist without pumping systems. The objective of this paper is to present the main concepts of Life Cycle Cost (LCC – LIFE CYCLE COST), applied to centrifugal pumps, using a Monte Carlo simulation, relating to the use patterns and parts replacement practices, as normally used in maintenance activities. It will be possible to compare equipment metrics that have different life data on the influence of usage and installation conditions.
