Mission End Time

[lowens]

Hello,

Please can you confirm when running a Maintainability / Availability Simulation in BlockSim 6, what units should mission end time be specified in?? (hours, days, years etc.)

It doesn't appear very clear in the help function and I've seen various examples where mission end time has been specified in terms of days and years.

Thanks

Hi there,
All you parameters should all have the same units and the mission time will be consistent with these units. For example, if you have a part with a Weibull failure distribution with Beta = 1.5 and Eta = 1000 hours, then the mission time will be in hours. Make sure you stay consistent thoughout your RBD.
