RELIABILITY

Is simply as the probability that a system or product will


accomplish its designated mission in a satisfactory manner or, in more
specific terms, the probability that it will perform in a satisfactory
manner for a given period when the probability that it will perform in a
satisfactory manner for a given period when used under specified
operating conditions.

Is a source of electric light that works by incandescence (a


general term for heat-driven light emissions, which includes the
simple case of black body radiation). An electric current passes
through a thin filament, heating it to a temperature that
produces light. The enclosing glass bulb contains either a vacuum
or an inert gas to prevent oxidation of the hot filament.
Incandescent bulbs are also sometimes calledelectric lamps, a
term also applied to the original arc lamps.
Incandescent bulbs are made in a wide range of sizes
and voltages, from 1.5 volts to about 300 volts. They require no
external regulating equipment and have a low manufacturing
cost, and work well on either alternating current or direct
current. As a result the incandescent lamp is widely used in
household and commercial lighting, for portable lighting such as
table lamps, car headlamps, andflashlights, and for decorative
and advertising lighting

DESIGN PROBLEM OF LIGHT BULB

• Higher energy usage

• Higher heat

• Minimal light output

• Contain larger amount of mercury

• Lifetime persistence is minimal

• Convert only 2% of its power input to visible white light

RELIABILTY TEST and EVALUATION

Accelerated life testing techniques are used to demonstrate the

reliability of an incandescent light bulb. This analysis includes

conducting an accelerated life test, identifying the distribution for the

lifetime of the tested bulbs, fitting, and comparing different models for

testing. The mean time to failure is estimated in the final model, in

addition to a quantile function in the fitted model and reliability

estimates at the manufacturer's stated lifetime.


The following are the ways to test the efficiency of the light

bulb:

• Viscoplasticity & creep of the material.So in a simplified sense if

we assume the failure to obey a typical creep failure law, the

failure is characterized by a combination of time-stress-

temperature (and a couple other parameters to specify the basic

law).

• Higher stresses and temp -> decreased time to failure and

verifying the law.

• The testing times can be taken down , say, 100k hours (which is

a typical design criterion for high temperature components) to

100 - some thousands of hours (in high temperature use of

materials).

ALTERNATIVE SOLUTIONS TO IMROVE RELIABILTY of AN


INCANDESCENT LIGHT BULB

• Is to higher the conversion of power input inorder to increase the

white light visibility.

• Lower the heat to reduce the size, cost, and energy consumption

of air-conditioning equipment.

• Lower the voltage usage inorder to reduced the cost of electricity
