Power utility systems Modelling Performance analysis Method UCTD Dissertation (MEng)--University of Pretoria, 1990. Any business striving to improve its productivity, must first establish and practise at all levels a universal method for measurement and analysis of its performance. A prerequisite for any analysis, is an appropriate definition of the system which is to be analysed. The rationale and derivation process for such system definition, is termed "modelling", and its product a "model". Deterministic Productivity Accounting (DPA), is a comparative analysis method for business performance. It is based on the premise that business performance is primarily determined by resource management, and measured in terms of productivity. By judicious partitioning and modelling of the business systems, and careful counting and accounting for every variance component, one traces the driving causes behind the apparent performance. This work combiaes modelling of power utility systems with the application of DPA, into an integrated method for performance measurement and analysis within a power utiljty, especially in a power station. gm2014 Industrial and Systems Engineering unrestricted 2014-06-17T13:01:17Z 2014-06-17T13:01:17Z 1990-10-30 1990 Dissertation Percale, EU 1990, Power utility systems modelling and performance analysis, MEng dissertation, University of Pretoria, Pretoria, viewed yymmdd <http://hdl.handle.net/2263/40209> E14/4/43/gm http://hdl.handle.net/2263/40209 en © 1990 University of Pretoria.
