A Method for the Calculation of the Mean Time To Failure (MTTF) ofRepairable System

摘要：

The ability of executing assigned function of repairable system under certain condition isquite different from that of single unit due to redundant configuration.It is well understood thatproper management strategy can greatly prolong the mean time to failure (MTTF) of repairablesystem.By introducing operating cycle or partial test interval,repair time and maintenanceefficiency,the MTTF of classic 1oo1,1oo2 and 2oo3 redundant systems is studied in this paper.Itis found that periodical maintenance can dramatically improve the availability of repairable system,while the efficiency of maintenance has great influence on the MTTF of repairable system.
