摘要：For different importance of components in equipment system, a cold standby system with two different components is studied when important components enjoy the priority in use and maintenance. Considering the application of exponential distribution, Weibull distribution and other typical distributions in resolving the problems subject to complicated calculation and strict constraints in the past reliability modelling, the highly applicable phase-type (PH) distribution is utilized to describe the life and maintenance time of system components in a unified manner. A system reliability model is built for wider applicability. With the matrix analysis method, expressions are obtained for a number of reliability indicators such as system reliability function, steady-state availability, mean up time and mean down time of system. In the end, examples are presented to verify the correctness and applicability of the model.
