description | Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) has been used quite extensively in aerospace industry for several years to establish hardware criticality. Determination of software reliability is equally important. There are several methods for determining software reliability. One methods for performing software reliability is the software FMEA.
This paper discusses the application of principles to FMEA. A typical Tank pressurant is considered as an illustrative example. The tank pressurant system consists of three sets of solenoid valves (each set consists of a pair of valves), three pressure transducers, a vent valve, a heat exchanger and helium cold pressure bottles. Each set of solenoid valves consist of two solenoid valves connected in series. For the system to function properly, certain conditions have to be met. These are discussed in detail later in this paper.
Based on the information provided from NASA, it is concluded that FMEA has to be capable of determining the software failure modes, effects and criticality as well as the hardware failure modes effects and criticality which includes the pressure transducers, solenoid valves, vent valve, heat exchanger and helium cold pressure bottles. The paper will discuss both the hardware and software FMEA application in detail. |
