Reliability Estimates, in the Beginning
• “the spreadsheet” – numbers from industry, design specs, LANL, JLab, experts, and guesses
• Exponential distributions only (constant failure rate)
• For 160 hours mission time, availability:– Source – 87%– Linac – 80%– Modulators – 99%– Overall - ??

RBD/BlockSim Advantages
• Reliability Block Diagram (RBD) – “graphical representation of the components of the system and how they are reliability-wise related”
• Many failure distributions allowed
• Standby, load share, failure of switching to standby
• Analytical solution of very complex diagrams (but not an accelerator)
• Monte Carlo simulation – maintenance phases, spares, crews

Full Accelerator Simulation Results
• Used exponential distributions (random failures)
• 86% - corrector power supplies, circulators, PPS modules, water valves, JT valves, etc.
• Change values for PS controllers and circulators from 50k to 100k
• 89% - RF feedthroughs, JT valves, etc.
• Change RF feedthrough from 100k to 4m (1 every 7 years), JT valves from 87k to 400k (1 every 5 years), etc
• 92% - Finally! But only for 1 seed

Klystron Spares Study
• 805 MHz, 550 (700) kW peak, 50 kW average power, 1.5 ms pulse length, 9% duty cycle
• M type cathode, 0.6-0.7 A/cm2 density, manufacturer predicted lifetime > 100,000 hours
• 81 in service, 70 with ~40000 hours on filament
• How many spares to order and how quickly?

Conclusions
• SNS is middle aged - how long will it last?
• We still can not predict the wear-out curve – until it begins! But we can model maintenance plans
• Cathode lifetime may not be a major concern
• Klystron spares can be ordered at a steady rate
