RELIABILITY AND MAINTENANCE ENGINEERING

BTME 801: Reliability and Maintenance


SYLLABUS

Unit 1 Maintenance Concepts and Strategies: Introduction, maintenance functions and objectives,
maintenance planning and scheduling, maintenance organization.
General Introduction to Maintenance Types: Breakdown, emergency, corrective, predictive, and
preventive; maintenance prevention; design-out maintenance, productive maintenance, shutdown
maintenance and scheduled maintenance.

Topic Outcome: - Maintenance is work that is carried out to preserve an asset in order to enable its
continued use and function, above a minimum acceptable level of performance, over its design service
life, without unforeseen renewal or major repair activities. This unit reflects on the importance, need and
benefit of Maintenance activity in an industry. This topic includes significance of various types of
maintenance like Breakdown, emergency, corrective, predictive, preventive; design-out maintenance,
productive maintenance, shutdown maintenance and scheduled maintenance. Also learn when which
types maintenance should use.

Unit 2 Condition Based Maintenance: Principles of CBM, pillars of condition monitoring, CBM
Implementation and benefits, condition monitoring techniques- visual monitoring, vibration monitoring,
wear debris monitoring, corrosion monitoring, performance monitoring.
Topic outcome:- Condition monitoring means determining the health and condition of equipments,
machines and system by observing, checking , monitoring and measuring certain parameter and signals.
The maintenance activity in which the condition monitoring equipments are used known as condition
based maintenance. This unit mainly focuses on working of various condition monitoring techniques
like vibration monitoring, wear debris monitoring and corrosion monitoring etc. A number of strategies
and tactics will learn for collecting condition data and interpreting it for taking corrective actions

Unit 3 Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM): Concept, methodology, benefits;


Total Productive Maintenance: Evolution of TPM, TPM objectives, concept, pillars of TPM.
Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA)/ Failure Modes, Effects and Criticality Analysis
(FMECA):
Overview, elements of FMECA, applications and benefits, risk evaluation, risk priority numbers,
Criticality analysis, process FMEA, qualitative and quantitative approach to FMECA; design FMEA and
steps for carrying out design FMEA.
Topic Outcome: - Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) is the process that is used to determine the
most effective approach to maintenance. It involves identifying actions that, when taken, will reduce the
probability of failure and which are the most cost effective. It seeks the optimal mix of Condition-Based
Actions, other Time- or Cycle-Based actions, or a Run-to-Failure approach. RCM is an ongoing process
that gathers data from operating systems performance and uses this data to improve design and future
maintenance. These maintenance strategies, rather than being applied independently, are integrated to
take advantage of their respective strengths in order to optimize facility and equipment operability and
efficiency while minimizing life-cycle costs.
Total productive maintenance (TPM) is a system of maintaining and improving the
integrity of production and quality systems through the machines, equipments, processes and employees

that add business value to the organization. One of the main objectives of TPM is to increase the
productivity of plant and equipment with a modest investment in maintenance. Total quality
management (TQM) and total productive maintenance (TPM) are considered as the key operational
activities of the quality management system.
Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) was one of the first systematic techniques for
failure analysis. It was developed by reliability engineers in the 1950s to study problems that might arise
from malfunctions of military systems. An FMEA is often the first step of a system reliability study. It
involves reviewing as many components, assemblies, and subsystems as possible to identify failure
modes, and their causes and effects. For each component, the failure modes and their resulting effects on
the rest of the system are recorded in a specific FMEA worksheet. There are numerous variations of
such worksheets. An FMEA is mainly a qualitative analysis. A successful FMEA activity helps to
identify potential failure modes based on experience with similar products and processes - or based on
common physics of failure logic. It is widely used in development and manufacturing industries in
various phases of the product life cycle. Effects analysis refers to studying the consequences of those
failures on different system levels.
Unit 4 Basic Concepts of Reliability: Probability distributions used in maintenance engineeringBinomial, Poisson, Exponential, Normal, Log-normal, Gamma and Weibull distribution; failure rate,
hazard rate, failure modes, MTTR, MTBF, MTTF.
Topic Outcome: - The probability that an item will perform a required function without failure under
stated conditions for a stated period of time. Reliability engineering is engineering that emphasizes
dependability in the lifecycle management of a product. Dependability, or reliability, describes the
ability of a system or component to function under stated conditions for a specified period of time.
Failure of items represents unreliability. Failure Rate, Mean time between failure (MTBF) , Mean Time
to failure (MTTF) and Mean time to Repair (MTTR) formula that measure Reliability.
Unit 5 System Reliability Models: System reliability-component series systems, m-component parallel
systems and combined system; standby systems; K-out-of-m systems; redundancy techniques in system
design; event space, decomposition (Key Stone), cut and tie sets, Markov analysis, reliability and
quality, unreliability, maintainability, availability.
Topic Outcome: - In Series system consist of large number of components connected in series. The
successful operation of the system depends on the proper operation of all components connected in
series. If one of these components fails, the system fails. Reliability engineering represents a subdiscipline within systems engineering. Reliability is theoretically defined as the probability of failure, as
the frequency of failures, or in terms of availability, as a probability derived from reliability and
maintainability. Maintainability and maintenance is often defined as a part of "reliability engineering" in
Reliability Programs. Reliability plays a key role in the cost-effectiveness of systems. Maintainability is
used to provide high effective reliability.
Maintainability measures the ease and speed with which a system can be restored to
operational status after a failure occurs. A characteristic of design and installation, expressed as the
probability that an item will be retained in or restored to a specified condition within a given period of
time, when the maintenance is performed in accordance with prescribed procedures and resources.
Availability depends on both reliability and maintainability. It is the probability that a
system or component is performing its required functions at a given point in time or over a stated period
of time when operated and maintained in prescribed manner.

Question Papers

Glossary
Spur Gears
Are cogged wheels whose cogs or teeth project radially and stand parallel to the axis.
Diametral Pitch (DP)
The Diametral Pitch describes the gear tooth size. The Diametral Pitch is expressed as the number of
teeth per inch of Pitch Diameter. Larger gears have fewer teeth per inch of Diametral Pitch. Another
way of saying this; Gear teeth size varies inversely with Diametral Pitch.
Pitch Diameter (D)
The Pitch Diameter refers to the diameter of the pitch circle. If the gear pitch is known then the Pitch
Diameter is easily calculated using the following formula
PD = N
P
PD = Pitch Diameter
N = Number of teeth on the gear
P = Diametral Pitch (Gear Size)

The Pitch Circle


The pitch circle is the geometrical starting point for designing gears and gear trains. Gear trains refer to
systems of two or more meshing gears. The pitch circle is an imaginary circle that contacts the pitch
circle of any other gear with which it is in mesh. See fig. 2 below. The pitch circle centers are used to
ensure accurate center-to-center spacing of meshing gears.

Pitch Diameter (D): The diameter of the Pitch Circle from which the gear is designed. An imaginary circle,
which will contact the pitch circle of another gear when in mesh.
D = N/P
Diametral Pitch (P) : A ratio of the number of teeth per inch of pitch diameter
P = N/D
Addendum (A) :The radial distance from the pitch circle to the top of the gear tooth
A = 1/P
Dedendum (B) :The radial distance from the pitch circle to the bottom of the tooth

B = 1.157/ P
Outside Diameter (OD): The overall diameter of the gear

OD= (N + 2)/P
Root Diameter (RD): The diameter at the Bottom of the tooth

RD =(N 2)/P
Base Circle (BC):The circle used to form the involute section of the gear tooth
BC = D * Cos PA
Circular Pitch (CP): The measured distance along the circumference of the Pitch Diameter from the point of one
tooth to the corresponding point on an adjacent tooth.

CP = 3.1416D = 3.1416
N
P
Circular Thickness (T) :Thickness of a tooth measure along the circumference of the Pitch Circle

T = 3.1416 D = 1.57
2N
P
Addendum (A) :The addendum refers to the distance from the top of the tooth to the Pitch circle
Dedendum (B) :The Dedendum refers to the distance from the Pitch circle to the root circle.
Clearance (C): Refers to the radial distance between the top and bottom of gears in mesh. Some
machinists and mechanics refer to clearance as play or the degree of looseness between mating parts.
Whole Depth (WD): Refers to the distance from the top of the tooth to the bottom of the tooth. The
whole depth is calculated using this formula:
WD = 2.157
P
Pressure Angle (PA) (Choose either 14.5 or 20 degrees):
The pressure angle figures into the geometry or form of the gear tooth. It refers to the angle
through which forces are transmitted between meshing gears.
14.5-degree tooth forms were the original standard gear design. While they are still widely
available, the 20-degree PA gear tooth forms have wider bases and can transmit greater loads.
Note: 14.5-degree PA tooth forms will not mesh with 20-degree PA teeth.
Center Distance :The center distance of 2 spur gears is the distance from the center shaft of one spur
gear to the center shaft of the other. Center to center distance for two gears in mesh can be calculated
with this formula.
Center-to-Center Distance= PD gearA + PD gearB
2
Rotation :Spur gears in a 2-gear drive system (Gear #1 and Gear #2) will rotate in opposite directions.
When an intermediary gear set or idler gear is introduced between the two gears the drive gear (Gear #1)
and the last gear (Gear #3) will rotate in the same direction.
The rotational relationship between gears in a gear drive system can be stated as follows: Two meshing
gears or gear sets (Gear sets are comprised of 2 or more gears fixed to the same shaft) rotate in opposite
directions. Each odd numbered gear in a gear drive rotates in the same direction.
Backlash: Backlash refers to the distance from the back of the drive gear tooth to the front of driven
gear tooth of gears mated on the pitch circle. Standard gears are designed with a specified amount of
backlash to prevent noise and excessive friction and heating of the gear teeth.

Fig. 4 Backlash and Pressure Angle Illustrated

Ratios: Gears of the same pitch, but differing numbers of teeth can be paired to obtain a wide range of
Gear Ratios. Gear Ratios are used to increase mechanical advantage (torque) or increase rotational speed
or velocity.
The ratio of a given pair of spur gears is calculated by dividing the number of teeth on the driven
gear, by the number of teeth on the drive gear.
GearRation = DrivenGearTeeth
DriveGearTeeth
Velocity: Velocity refers to the rotational speed of a gear and can be expressed using a variety of units.
In the examples that follow we will express gear velocity in inches per minute. The gear industry often
uses feet per minute. Inches per minute can be converted to feet per minute by simply dividing by 12.
Velocity is expressed as the distance a point along the circumference of the pitch circle will travel over a
given unit of time.
Velocity can be calculated using this formula :
Velocity = Pitch Circle Circumference x RPM
Bevel Gears: Bevel gears transmit power between two intersecting shafts at any angle or between nonintersecting shafts. They are classified as straight and spiral tooth bevel and hypoid gears.

Bevel Gear Terminologies:

Fig 5 Bevel Gear Terminology


Cone Distance: Cone distance is the length of the pitch-cone element. It is also called pitch cone radius.
Root angle: Angle subtended by the root of the tooth at the cone centres.
Back Cone: The back cone is an imaginary cone and its elements are perpendicular to the elements of
pitch cone.
Back Cone Distance: It is the length of the back cone element.
Diametral Pitch (DP): The Diametral Pitch describes the gear tooth size. The Diametral Pitch is
expressed as the number of teeth per inch of Pitch Diameter. Larger gears have fewer teeth per inch of
Diametral Pitch. Another way of saying this; Gear teeth size varies inversely with Diametral Pitch.
Pitch Diameter (D)
The Pitch Diameter refers to the diameter of the pitch circle. If the gear pitch is known then the Pitch
Diameter is easily calculated using the following formula
PD = N
P
PD = Pitch Diameter
N = Number of teeth on the gear
P = Diametral Pitch (Gear Size)

Pressure Vessels: They are used to store fluids under pressure. The fluid may undergo a change of state
inside pressure vessel as in case of steam boilers or it may combine with other reagents as in a chemical
plant.
Hoop Stress: A tensile stress acting in a direction tangential to the circumference is called
circumferential or hoop stress.
Longitudinal stress: A tensile stress acting in a direction of axis is called longitudinal stress.
Keys: A piece of mild steel inserted between the shaft and hub or boss of pulley to connect these
together in order to prevent relative motion between them. It is always inserted parallel to the axis of
shaft.
Shaft coupling: Shaft couplings are used to join two or more pieces of shaft.
Rigid couplings: It is used to connect two shafts which are perfectly aligned.
Flexible couplings: It is used to connect two shafts having both lateral and angular misalignment.

Glossary
Refrigeration:
The term refrigeration stands for the production of a cool confinement with respect to surroundings.
Or
According to American Society of Refrigeration Engineers (ASRE), Refrigeration is the science of
providing and maintaining temperature below that of the surrounding atmosphere.
Refrigeration effects:
The rate of heat absorbed in the cycle from the body or space to be cooled is called the refrigerating
effect
Ton of refrigeration:
The unit of refrigeration is expressed commonly as ton of refrigeration. The heat absorbed in the system
from the space or body to cooled, equivalent to the latent heat of fusion of 1 ton of ice from and at 0 oC
in 24 hours is called 1 ton of refrigeration
Methods of Refrigeration:

Refrigeration by using liquid gas
Steam jet Refrigeration system

Coefficient of performance (COP):


COP refers to the effectiveness with which the performance of refrigeration system is measured. It is the
ratio of heat extracted in the refrigerator to the work done on the refrigerant.
Mathematically

() =

Or
() =

Dry Compression:
The compression is said to be dry, if the refrigerant vapour is dry before the beginning of compression.
Wet Compression:

The compression is said to be wet, if the refrigerant vapour contains liquid particles at the end of
compression.

Nozzle Efficiency:
It is defined as the ratio of actual enthalpy drop to the isentropic enthalpy drop of the motive steam
passing through the nozzle.

() =

Compression Efficiency:
It is defined as the ratio of isentropic enthalpy increase to the actual enthalpy increase required for the
compression of the mixture of motive steam and the water vapours in the compressor.

() =

Diffuser:
The diffuser is a mechanical device that is designed to control the characteristics of a fluid at the
entrance to a thermodynamic open system. Diffusers are used to slow the fluids velocity and to enhance
its mixing into the surrounding fluid.
Refrigerant:
Refrigerant is the medium of heat transfer through phase change such as evaporation at low temperature
and pressure.
Primary Refrigerant:Primary refrigerant directly take a part in the refrigeration system while
secondary refrigerants are first cooled with the help of the primary refrigerants and are futher use for
cooling purpose.
Secondary Refrigerant:
Under many circumferences it is not desirable to carry the heat from heat generating source directly by
refrigerant than it is carried by using the secondary refrigerant as water, brine or air. The heat carried by
the secondary refrigerants from the generating source is given to the refrigerant in the evaporator and
recalculated again and again.
Natural Refrigerant:
Natural refrigerant are the naturally occurring substance which can be used as refrigerants.They are safe
to be use from environmental point of view.

Dry air: It is a mechanical mixture of the gases-oxygen nitrogen carbon dioxide, hydrogen, argon, neon
krypton, helium, ozon and xenon. However , nitrogen and oxygen constitute a major portion of the
mixture and thus dry air can be considered to consist of 79% nitrogen and 21% oxygen by volume and
77% nitrogen and 23% oxygen by mass.
Moist air: Moist air is a mixture of dry and air water vapour the quantity of water vapour percent in the
air may change from 0 to maximum depending upon the temperature of the air.
Psychrometry:Psychrometry deals with the thermal properties of air and the control and measurement
of the moisture content in air, and the effects of these atmospheric conditionon commodities and human
comfort
Dry bulb temperature (DBT):The temperature of air recorded by a thermometer which is not affected
by moisture of radiation is known as dry bulb temperature
Wet bulb Temperature(WBT)The temperature measured by a mercury thermometer whose bulb is
covered with a wet cloth and is exposed to a corrent of un saturated air moving with a velocity of 300
m/mint is known as WBT.
Degree of saturation:It is defined as the ratio of mass of water vapour associated with unit mass of dry
air to the mass of water vapour associated with unit mass of saturated air at same temperature.
Humidity ratioHumidity ratio of specific humidity can be defined as the mass of water vpour present in
moist air per kg of dry air in a given volume.
Relative humidity:It is defined as the ratio of actual mass of water vapour in a given volume of moist
air the mass of water vapour when air is saturated at the same temperature.
Dew point temperature: When temperature of moist air is reduced by continuous polling, then at one
stage water vapour starts condensing the temperature at which condensing of water vapour starts is
known as dew point temperature.
Saturated air
Saturated air is the mixture of dry air and water vapour when the air has diffused the maximum amount
of water vapour into it. The water vapour, usually, occurs in the form of superheated steam as an
invisible gas. However when the saturated air is cooled, the water vapour start condensing, and the same
may be visible in the form of moist, fog or condensation on cold surfaces.
By pass factor:
Under ideal condition the DBT of air leaving the coils (Heating or cooling), td2 should be equal to that of
coil, td3. But it is not so, because of the inefficiency of the coil. This phenomenon is known as by pass
factor.

Room sensible heat factor (RSHF): It is defined as the ratio of the room sensible heat (RSH) to the
room total heat (RTH)

() =

Grand sensible heat factor(GSHF): It is defined as the ratio of total sensible heat (TSH)to the grand
total heat(GTS) which the cooling coil or conditioning apparatus is required to handle.

() =

Effective room sensible heat factor (ESHF): Effective room sensible heat factor (ESHF) is defined as
ratio of the effective room sensible heat to the effective room total heat.

equal to it's distance from a fixed line.
Parabolic Interpolation- Control of a cutter path by interpolation between three fixed points, with the
assumption that the intermediate points are on a parabola.
Parametrics- a capability of 2D and 3D modeling systems in which the user defines dimensions and
constraints to which the model must conform. Alterations are then automatically reflected in related
areas. Strictly speaking, parametrics work in only one direction, i.e., altering entity A will affect entity
B, but not vice-versa. In practice, however, most systems allow the changes to operate in either
direction.
Parasolid- a solid modeling engine used by many commercial and research organizations as the core of
CAD/CAM/CAE applications. (Unigraphics Solutions Inc.)
PDES Inc. (PDES)- an industry/government consortium whose aim is to speed development and
implementation of the STEP standard.
Pen plotter- a hardcopy device that draws links on paper, or other flat medium, by moving one or more
pens across the surface of the medium; with more than one pen, multiple colors are possible.
Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI)- a high-performance bus that provides a processorindependent data path between the CPU and peripherals for graphics, video, SCSI, LAN, etc. (PCI
Special Interest Group)
-RRadiosity- an way to illuminate models so that the visibility of a surface of an object is assessed relative
to every other surface and light source. Produces soft shadows.
Random Access Memory (RAM)- the storage area of a computer that holds programs and data.
Rapid prototyping (RP)- various manufacturing processes as well as a burgeoning industry. RP
processes involve devices--ranging from office modelers to four-ton machines--that accept 3D CAD
files, slice the data into cross-sections, and construct layers from the bottom up, bonding one on top of
the other, to produce physical prototypes for applications such as engineering form, fit, and function;
soft tooling for prototypes; and patterns for hard tooling. The RP industry consists of RP systems,
materials, and after-market products as well as a services sector.

Raster data- a method of defining 2D graphic data with black-and-white or colored dots as opposed to
vector data. Raster data resolution is typically defined by the number of pixels or dots/inch.
Ray tracing- a rendering method that approximates illumination by casting a ray from the viewer into
the model for each pixel in an image.
Rendering- process of adding shading, colors, reflectivity, textures, etc. to a model to make it appear
realistic.
Resolution- the acuity of a graphics display, monitor, or hardcopy device. Typically measured in total
pixels, horizontal X vertical (i.e. 1,280 X 1,024), or dots/inch (dpi).
Reverse engineering- in general, the processing of understanding the design and functionality of a
product using a sample of the product itself. For CAD, the term refers more narrowly to the process of
scanning or digitizing the shape of an object and turning that data into a model which can then be treated
as a normal CAD model, ultimately to re-manufacture the part or product.
-SSAT- a file format for 3D solid geometry, created by systems that use the ACIS solid modeling engine.
(Spatial Technology Corp.)
Server- in client-server computing, a system that performs processing and delivers data to any
number of clients in a network.
SLA format (SLA)- the 3D file format used by Stereo lithography Apparatus (SLA) rapid prototyping
machines. Can also be used as a general 3D file format for viewing.(3D Systems Inc.)
Small Computer Systems Interface (SCSI)- a CPU-to-drive (or other peripherals) interface. UltraWide SCSI supports 40 MB/sec data transfer from the peripheral to the system. The newer Ultra 2 Wide
SCSI doubles data transfer to 80 MB/sec.
Solid modeling- a geometric modeling method that completely and unambiguously describes both the
exterior and interior of a part or assembly in three dimensions.
Spun Surface- a surface created by spinning a 2D profile of a trace path around a centerline axis.
-VVirtual Reality (VR)- Refers to the ability to interact with data in a way that enables the users to
"enter" and navigate through a computer-generated 3D environment and change their viewpoint and
interact with objects created within that environment in a way that mimics the real world.

Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML)- a language that lets Web browsers view and interact
with 3D models; requires a special viewer.
Virtual prototyping (VP)- the use of computer models and simulations to supplant the use of physical
prototypes and models for evaluating and testing product designs.
