Calculating Reliable Values of MTBF
1. Calculating method
Calculated based on part count reliability projection of MIL-HDBK-217F Individual failure rates λg is
given to each part and MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure) is calculated by the count of each part.
<Formula>:
n
MTBF = 1/ λepuip = 1/ (∑Ni(λG∏Q)i
*10^
6 (Hours)
i=1
λequip
: Total Equipment Failure Rate (Failure/10^
6Hours)
λG
: Generic Failure Rate for The ith Generic Part (Failure/ 10^
6Hours)
∏Q
: Generic Quality Factor for The ith Generic Part (∏Q=1)
Ni
: Quantity of ith Generic Part
n
: Number of Different Generic Part Categories
