Abstract

Surveillance test schedule has been studied to increase standby system availability and keep plant safety. Optimal testing schedules have been studied and developed for simple systems, such as series and parallel systems. For more complex systems, a testing policy was usually chosen among the pre-specified testing strategies based on the performance calculated by computer codes. However, it was not sure the adopted testing strategy was optimal or near optimal. This study summarized several optimal testing strategies of simple systems. Based on these previous results, some suggestions were proposed to build up testing strategies for complex systems to maximize system availability.
