主 题:cold spare spare gate AND gate failure percentage(FP) fault tree analysis Markov analysis
摘 要:Cold spare is the most common configuration amongst the three types of configuration for systems used on board and for power generation systems. A new approach to calculate the unavailability of systems composed of identical spares in cold spare configuration was proposed in this study. Instead of using the spare gate of dynamic fault tree( DFT) and the Markov analysis,AND gate of static fault tree used for calculating the unavailability of cold spare systems was proposed in this paper. By using this approach,unavailability of identical cold spare systems composed of nonrepairable spare components can be calculated exactly and systems composed of both repairable and nonreparable identical spare components can be estimated without building large Markov state diagram.
