Abstract

Installation and operation of a power plant is dependent upon a large number of parameters which are interdependent. In the present work a methodology based upon the combination of digraph development, matrix representation and computational solution is applied on the problem of site selection for power plant is developed. The aim of present work is the factor identification and methodology development for decision making. This paper identifies various parameters affecting the real time situation. All these parameters are interacting with each other by different amounts. An attempt has been made to develop a mathematical model of SSPP from these interacting parameters using GTA. These parameters are interdependent. For the peer group selection maximum value is compared with real time value. Value of relative SSPP comes out to be 34.41%. From the GTA it came out that with decrease in Availability of Water, relative is decreased from 38.51 to 34.41%. Keywords: digraph, graph theory, parameters, permanent function
