Transitioning Base-Loaded Plants to Variable Load
Quantify and remedy load-related transition problems that arise in fossil fuel and nuclear power generators. Modifications often include designing new flowpath hydraulics using CFD.
Nuclear Promise
Reduce operating and maintenance costs by 30% by maintaining safety and identifying problems in-house with VibVue® or with MSI’s more intensive capabilities.
Nuclear Plant Recommissioning
MSI’s risk reduction assessment process and troubleshooting experience are invaluable tools for those utilities recommissioning nuclear power plants.
Supporting Plants Losing Tribal Knowledge
MSI’s seasoned professionals support plants and machinery manufacturers in transition as senior staff with vital tribal knowledge retire and are replaced with less experienced engineers.
Field Testing & Vibration Troubleshooting
Fix vibration problems in machines that have operated reliably for decades, but now may have age-related problems such as compromised foundations or base connections. MSI also uses and sells its own Motion Magnified Video product, VibVue®, for both troubleshooting and as the latest method for predictive maintenance.
