QUALITY EVALUATION OF THE TPP POWER GENERATING UNITS WEAR RECONDITIONING by E. M. Farhadzadeh, A. Z. Muradaliyev, Yu. Z. Farzaliyev

“…The study demonstrates the assessment criteria dependence on the character of reliability and economical efficiency of performance variation after the repair with increase or decrease of the technical-and-economic indexes in reference to their mean, minimum and maximum values before the repair. The cases ascribed to intolerable quality of the wear reconditioning are those with one or more technical-and-economic indexes that not only failed to improve their values but deteriorated, and at that they became the worst amongst observable values. …”
