Reliability analysis of a two-unit general parallel system with (n-2) warm standbys
نویسندگان
چکیده
A parallel (2, n – 2)-system is investigated here where two units start their operation simultaneously and any one of them is replaced instantaneously upon its failure by one of the (2; n – 2) warm standbys. We assume availability of n non-identical, non-repairable units. The unit-lifetimes in full operational mode and in partial operational mode have general distribution functions Gi and Hi (i = 1;...; n) respectively. The system reliability is evaluated by recursive relations.

متن کاملReliability and Sensitivity Analysis of a System with Warm Standbys and a Repairable Service Station
We study the reliability and sensitivity analysis of a system with M operating machines, S warm standbys, and a repairable service station. Failure times and service times of each machine (operating or standby) are assumed to be exponentially distributed. While the service station is working, it is subject to breakdowns according to a Poisson process. When the station breaks down, it requires ...
متن کاملTransient analysis of hardware and software systems with warm standbys and switching failures
Redundancy or standby is a provision which plays an important role in improving the reliability of engineering systems. This investigation deals with the reliability and sensitivity analysis of a repairable system (consisting of hardware and software components) with warm standbys and switching failures. The failure and repair rates of the components are assumed to follow exponential distributi...

The present paper investigates the reliability and sensitivity analysis of a coal handling unit of a thermal power plant using a probabilistic approach. Coal handling unit is the main block of a thermal power plant and it is necessary for a good function of a power plant that its power supply, which is dealt in coal handling unit, must function continuously without any obstacle. The configurati...
