21. The components in the system below are exponentially distributed with the
indicated failure rates. Develop an expression for the reliability of the system.
What is the
․ λ s = 0.002+0.002+0.001+0003 = 0.008
․ R s = e - 0.008(100) = 0.4493
SERIES System :
When components are in series and each component has a reliability RI If one
component fails, the system fails.
2. R AB = R1 x R2 x R3
3. If R1 = R2 = R3 = 0.95
PARALLEL System:
When components are in parallel and each component has a reliability Ri. If one co
mponent fails, the system does not fail.
4. Overall reliability is R AB =1 - (1 - R 1 ) (1 - R 2)
