Abstract :
Due to the problems related to fossil fuels that cause environmental pollution, renewable power plants such as wind, solar, wave, tidal and hydro power plants have been developed to provide clean and stable electricity. Tidal power plants have been created in two forms, flow and reservoir power plants, so that they can produce electricity from tidal energy. In barrage type tidal power plants, a dam is created between the water storage tank and the ocean, and it is possible to transfer water between the ocean and the water storage tank through the dam wall. A turbine is placed in the valves located in the dam wall and electricity is generated. In this article, the reliability model of the reservoir type tidal power plant is obtained by considering the failure of its components, and then the effect of the aging of the equipment of this power plant on its reliability is examined. The graph of the equipment failure rate over time is usually in the form of a bathtub, and accordingly, the equipment failure rate increases with the passage of time and aging of the equipment. In this article, the effect of increasing equipment failure rate with the passage of time on the reliability of reservoir type tidal power plants is studied
