1.0  SCOPE:

The following report is a Failure Modes and Effects Analysis detailing mathematical models and predicted possible failure modes and its effects of the Hydraulic Thermal Relief Valve, part number 2623-13, designed by PneuDraulics, Inc. With precisely predicted failure rates for each part in assembly, meantime between failures of the whole system is calculated to be 563799 hours with total failure rate of 1.774 per every million hours.

2.0  REFERENCE DOCUMENTS:

A. MIL-HDBK-217F
B. RIAC  AUTOMATED DATABOOK(NPRD-2011)
C. LECTURE SLIDES
D. NPRD-95

3.0  REFERENCE SOFTWARE:

For the prediction of the failure rates, MTBF Calculator software developed by ALD is used


4.0  ITEM OVERVIEW:

The Hydraulic Thermal Relief Valve is designed to release the pressure if the systems pressure gets too extreme. This is done by poppet assembly, containing ball attached at the end and spring guide, which provides the spring to be compressed in designed way, pushing down spring due to over pressure to make opening space between the ball attached on poppet assembly and the seat.


5.0  ASSUMPTIONS:

a. Custom made mechanical parts were modeled after NPRD-95
b. The part is operating under high pressurized environment
c. Calculated Time (Hours) = 3 hours
d. Operating Temperature = -65°F to +165°F

6.0  FAILURE MODES AND EFFECTS ANALYSIS:

The FMEA has been developed to be used for the following purposes:

a. To identify all failure modes and ensure that corrective action has been taken
b. To identify effects of failure modes on the system under different level of assembly
c. Tool as a ranking technique to be used to concentrating on more severe possible failure modes


7.0  FMEA PROCEDURE

The Failure Modes and Effects Analysis is presented in tabular form in EXCEL. The worksheet has various columns detailing several of different facts related to FMEA. A description of each column is as follows:

Indentured Drawing Number – This FMEA column identifies the component’s drawing number according to its engineering drawing. For Hydraulic Thermal Relief system, drawing 2623-13 is used for this information.

Part Name - This FMEA column identifies component’s nomenclatures based on drawing 2623-13

Part Number - This FMEA column identifies component’s part or identification number based on drawing 2623-13.

Quantity - This FMEA column identifies quantity of each part needed for single assembly. The information is based on the drawing 2623-13.

Failure Mode - This FMEA column identifies all of the possible failure modes that a single component can have under its assumed operating condition.

Failure mode Rate(%) - This FMEA column identifies weighted percentage of each failure mode under one single component. For example, for the part shim, there are two possible failure modes identified. It can fracture but remain in intact or it fractures and releases. The failure mode rate for those two failure modes are 30% and 70%.

Failure Mode Cause - This FMEA column identifies the possible causes of each failure modes stated for each part.

Failure Rate(per million hours) - This FMEA column identifies the failure rate, per million hours. This information is predicted using NPRD-95 for custom made mechanical parts and NPRD-2011 for other mechanical parts.

Failure Rate Source - This FMEA column identifies sources used to predict the failure rate. Two sources used in this typical report are NPRD-95 and NPRD-2011

Component Level - This FMEA column identifies possible problem each failure mode may cause in component level of assembly.

Next Assembly Level - This FMEA column identifies possible problem each failure mode may cause in a next assembly level.

Visible Or Hidden - This FMEA column identifies if the failure modes are visible or not by inspection.

Criticality - This FMEA column identifies its severity and it is divided into 4 sub criteria.
                        I. Catastrophic - May cause death or weapon system loss.
II. Critical – May cause severe injury or damage and may result in mission loss.
III. Marginal – May cause minor injury or damage and may result in delay in mission   degradation
IV. Minor – It is not serious enough to cause the damage or injury to the part or system.
Means of Detection - This FMEA column identifies how failure can be detected if it occurs.

Compensating Provisions - This FMEA column identifies what features prevent or mitigate failure occurrence.
8.0  Failure Rates and MTBF:

- Total Failure Rates for the system came out to be 1.773683*10^-6 hours.

- The MTBF for this particular system under the assumptions made is calculated by taking inverse if      total failure rates and comes out to be 563799 hours.
