In the paper the usability of the Multiway PCA (MPCA) method for early detection of leakages in the pipeline system of a steam boiler in a thermal-electrical power plant is presented. A long segment of measurements of selected process variables was divided into a series of “batches” (representing daily recordings of normal behavior of the plant) and used to create the MPCA model of a “healthy” system in a reduced space of three principal components (PC). The periodically updated MPCA model was used to establish the confidence ellipsoid for the “healthy” system in the PC coordinates. The staff’s decision of the probable leak detection is supported by comparison of the current location of the operating point (on the “fault trajectory”) with the boundaries of the confidence ellipsoid. It must be emphasized that due to daily and seasonal changes of heat/electricity demands, the process variables have substantially greater variability than in the examples of batch processes studied in literature. Despite those real challenges for the MPCA method, numerical examples confirmed that the presented approach was able to foresee the leaks earlier than the operator, typically 3–5 days before the boiler shutdown. The presented methodology may be useful in implementation of an on-line system, developed to improve safety and maintenance of boilers in a thermal-electrical power plant.

In this paper, the problem of maximizing the flight time of an airplane with an electrical power plant (AEP) by the optimization of the mass of the accumulator in cases of fixed and non‐fixed airframe is considered. Variants of high (turbulent flow) and low (laminar flow) Reynolds numbers are taken into account. Dependence of flight time on airplane parameters is obtained. The behaviour of flight time as a function of accumulator mass near the maximum is also investigated. A comparison between the results obtained and the data for the existing AEP is made. On the basis of the results obtained, the influence of aircraft parameters on flight time is analyzed.

Gas Engine for Electrical Power Plant Project of Selayar is a power plant which will be built in Selayar Regency. This plant uses gas and biodiesel as a fuel. The facilities needed in the power plant construction includes a Gas Engine, Service Water Tank and Biosolar Tank. This study aims to obtain the allowable bearing capacity of the prestressed spun pile foundation for the three buildings based on soil investigation data of SPT (Standard Penetration Test) at BH-1 (gas engine), BH-2 (service water tank) and BH-3 (biosolar tank). The Meyerhof formula is used for the calculation of ultimate bearing capacity analysis on prestressed spun piles with various diameters for each depth. Calculation of the allowable bearing capacity (Qa) of the foundation at a depth of 19 meters, using a spun pile with a diameter of 300 cm, obtained a Qa value of 94.17 tons at BH-1, 94.20 tons at BH-2, and 74.65 tons at BH-3. Using a spun pile with a diameter of 400 cm, the Qa values were 116.71 tons on BH-1, 117.64 tons on BH-2, and 91.92 tons on BH-3. Using a spun pile with a diameter of 500 cm, the Qa values were 168.67 tons on BH-1, 172.09 tons on BH-2, and 131.49 tons on BH-3. Meanwhile, the values of Qa obtained were 229.85 tons on BH-1, 236.66 tons on BH-2, and 177.79 tons on BH-3 with the use of a spun pile with a diameter of 600 cm.
