Sažetak
A marine power plant is a complex system, consisting of several heat engines, different equipment and mechanisms, pipes and cables etc. The reliability of the system is one of the most important criteria for the estimation of its project and technological solutions quality. This estimation can be made only by calculation of the reliability characteristics of the plant and by its comparison with the predicted value. In order to perform the calculations in the design process, it is necessary to develop calculation models (user tools) that can be used on personal computers. In this paper the reliability calculation model of a marine power plant consisting of n serially connected elements will be presented. The developed calculation model is used to perform a calculation of the shafting system reliability of a merchant ship with slow-speed diesel engine by simulating the input reliability characteristics of single elements.
