Abstract

Reliability should be done from the initial stage of development to secure performance and safety of system. To establish and achieve target reliability of a system, reliability should be allocated into the subsystems. In the acquisition and development of a system, frequent failures will cause a negative effect on performing mission and occurs increasing operating cost. This study reviewed and evaluated the existing reliability allocation models using operation and maintenance costs to find the correlation between reliability allocation models and its operating cost. A target system reliability on the diesel engine to be developed for naval vessels is allocated into its subsystem based on the existing reliability allocation models. A selection methodology for reliability allocation models was made to minimize operating cost by using simulation based on the given operating diesel engine data for naval vessels.

시스템의 성능과 안전성을 보장하기 위해서는 개발 초기부터 신뢰도에 대한 연구가 이루어져야 한다. 시스템의 목표 신뢰도를 수립하고, 이를 달성하기 위하여 하부시스템 및 부분품에 신뢰도를 할당해야 한다. 시스템의 획득 및 개발에 있어서 성능이 우수하고 비용이 저렴하더라도 고장이 빈번하게 발생한다면 원활한 임무 수행에 많은 영향을 미치고, 막대한 운영유지비용이 소요될 것이다. 본 연구에서는 신뢰도 할당 모형과 운영 유지비용과의 관계를 알아보기 위하여 기존의 알려진 신뢰도 할당 모형들을 검토 및 평가하였다. 신뢰도 할당모형의 평가는 차기 개발 함정용 디젤 엔진을 대상으로 하였으며, 다양한 신뢰도 할당 모형에 목표 신뢰도를 고려하여 신뢰도를 할당하고, 현재 운영하는 함정용 디젤 엔진의 자료를 바탕으로 시뮬레이션을 수행하여 운영유지비용을 최소화하는 신뢰도 할당 모형을 선정하였다.
