One of the most critical systems for a ship operation is the diesel generator set. This is why the ship preserves four different diesel generators except the power battery packs. The paper describes the generator operation and the main failure conditions. Assuming that the failure rate of the system parts is constant the paper shows how the diesel generator system could be modelled in the context of Markov theory.
