Abstract: Abstract The aim of this work is to study the performance issues of cooling tower unit of a coal fired thermal power plant. The complex series- parallel arrangement of repairable system has been modeled with Petri-Net (PN) approach. Reliability parameters of the considered system have been tabulated using fuzzy Lambda-Tau approach. Triangular Membership Function (TFN) has been used for considering the vagueness in the collected operational failure rate and repair time data. Failure dynamics of the considered system was studied on the basis of increasing and decreasing trend of reliability parameters. The analysis result has been supplied to the maintenance engineer of the plant to fix the optimum maintenance interval for the considered unit.
