The document discusses the reliability block diagram and calculation of system reliability for the DC Bus 1 Power Supply of an Airbus A-320 aircraft using the tie set method. It breaks down the system into sub-components, identifies paths and tie sets, and calculates the overall reliability.

The reliability block diagram shows the 21 sub-components of the system arranged in blocks with lines indicating their connections and dependencies. It is then simplified by replacing component names with numbers.

The steps identified are: 1) simplify the block diagram, 2) determine the tie sets, 3) calculate the reliability using the union probability concept where the probability of each tie set is determined from the individual component reliabilities.

A. Introduction In this assignment, the electrical power supply of Airbus A-320 was chosen as the topic. Because the electrical power supply on the aircraft has a lot of sub-system, we consider the DC Bus 1 Power Supply of Airbus A-320 System as the main object to discuss. B. Reliability Block Diagram The reliability block diagram of DC Bus 1 Power Supply of Airbus A-320 System is depicted on figure 1. From figure 1, we can see that the system has twenty one blocks. out

C. System Reliability Calculation Since the paths of reliability block diagram are obvious, the tie set method can be used for calculating the reliability value of the system. The calculation steps of DC Bus 1 Power Supply of Airbus A-320 System is shown below. 1. Simplify the block diagram We still can simplify the block diagram of Bus 1 Power Supply of Airbus A-320 on figure 1 into the block diagram that is shown on figure 2. out

If we replace the name of each block into numbering style, AD = 1 BE = 2 CF = 3 I = 4 H = 5 GJ = 6 KMO = 7 LNPUTSR = 8 Q = 9, the new block diagram will be depicted on figure 3.

Rs = P(T1 T2 T3 T4 T5 T6 T7 T8 T9 T10 T11 T12) where P(T1) = R1 R7 R9 P(T2) = R1 R6 R8 R9 P(T3) = R2 R4 R7 R9 P(T4) = R2 R5 R8 R9 P(T5) = R3 R8 R9 P(T6) = R3 R5 R4 R7 R9 P(T7) = R2 R5 R6 R7 R9 P(T8) = R2 R4 R6 R8 R9 P(T9) = R1 R6 R5 R4 R7 R9 P(T10) = R1 R4 R5 R8 R9 P(T11) = R3 R5 R4 R6 R8 R9 P(T12) = R3 R6 R7 R9
