Steady State Behavior of Evaporation Unit in a Sugar Plant Using Markov Technique
Shri Ram, Dr. Rajiv Khanduja
Abstract :
This paper presents the steady state behavior of the evaporating system in a sugar plant. The sugar plant comprises of various systems including feeding, crushing, evaporating, refining, crystallization etc. One of the most important functionaries of a sugar plant, on which quality of sugar depends, is the evaporating system, where it is ensured that the desired viscosity is obtained. The evaporating system consists of two subsystems arranged in series with three states; reduced capacity, good and failure. The mathematical modeling is carried out on the basis of Markov birth death process using a probabilistic approach. An expression for steady state availability is also developed. . The findings of this paper have been discussed with the concerned plant personnel and found to be highly beneficial for enhancing the performance level of the plant concerned.
