“…In field of reliability , standby units are commonly used for uninterrupted functioning of system to increase its efficiency .Many researchers [1][2][3][4][5][6][7] have contributed a lot through their research by keeping in their mind the role of standby unit in system functioning .There are many practical situations available in real life where system functioning can be interrupted due to failure in the operating unit or by other factors needed to keep system in functioning state such as continuous electricity supply . Going on these lines in this paper we have considered unit failure and electricity cut as major issues of the concern in proper functioning of the system.…”

The paper presents reliability measures of compressor standby system which consist of three compressor units and one generator. Initially two compressor units are in functioning state while third compressor unit and generator are in standby state. For system operation working of at least two compressor units is must. System can interrupt due to failure of compressor unit and halt in electricity .These constraints can be overcome by using standby compressor unit and generator. For practical utility many years real failure and repair data has been collected from Verka milk plant to evaluate various measures of reliability effectiveness such as MTSF, availability ,busy period and profit. All these measures have been computed numerically as well as graphically by using semi Markov process and regenerative point technique.

“…On the other hand, Pijnenburg et al (1993) gave the idea of dependent parallel system. Rander et al (1992) and Singh et al (1986) discussed two unit cold standby concept considering various assumptions regarding failures, repairs, inspections and replacement. Yearout et al (1986) provide excellent review on standby redundancy.…”

In this paper a two unit standby system with single repair facility has been considered. When a working unit fails, it is immediately taken over by standby unit and repair on the failed unit is started immediately. Taking two types of distribution, namely, Weibull and Erlangian, various system effectiveness measures such as MTSF, Availability and Busy Periods are compared and results are interpreted numerically. Regenerative Point Technique and Semi-Markov process have been employed in this paper to find the results. Results are supported with numerical data also. Failure time distributions are taken to be exponential whereas the repair times are particular. The result obtained from this can be applied to study complex system where small change in the value of one variable affects the system measures to a great extent.
