Abstract
This paper presents reliability and availability of a cement manufacturing plant by using supplementary variable technique. In a cement manufacturing plant ten sub systems are arranged in a series. After working of maximum time, the system undergoes preventive maintenance and after this maintenance work as new. The time to failure of each subsystem follows a negative exponential distribution while preventive maintenance and repair time distributions are taken as arbitrary. All random variables are statistically independent. Keywords: Cement manufacturing plant, Reliability, Availability, Preventive maintenance and supplementary variable technique.
