21、e 4 of 34 1. SCOPE This ARP provides insights on how to perform a cost benefit analysis (CBA) to determine the return on investment that would result from implementing an integrated Health Management (HM) system on an air vehicle. The word “integrated” refers to the combination or “roll up” of sub-s
22、ystems health management tools to create a platform centric system. The document describes the complexity of features that can be considered in the analysis, the different tools and approaches for conducting a CBA and differentiates between military and commercial applications. This document is inte
23、nded to help those who might not necessarily have a deep technical understanding or familiarity with HM systems but want to either quantify or understand the economic benefits (i.e., the value proposition) that a HM system could provide. Prognostics is a capability within some HM systems that provid
24、es an estimation of remaining useful life (RUL) or time to failure and so Prognostic Health Management (PHM) is used where this predictive element exists. IVHM refers to an integrated vehicle level system deployed on a fleet of platforms and might, but not necessarily, include predictive elements.1.
25、1 Purpose This ARP is not a standard or legal document because the approaches towards the end objective are many and varied. The document has been compiled to help the increasing number of people who want to compute a HM CBA prior to implementing such a system on a platform. 1.2 Approach The approac
26、h taken was to identify the parameters that were relevant for consideration in a cost benefit analysis so that the boundaries of a specific problem could be defined from the outset. Several recent and worthy papers presented at conferences on the subject matter were studied and as much information a
27、s possible was obtained from the aerospace manufacturers and the DoD to identify tools and techniques that they might have used to good effect. The various methods were assessed by the SAE HM-1 Technical Committee team for their application to specific scenarios (e.g., military or commercial operati
28、on, legacy or new engines) and the parameters utilized by each scenario. The end result is a document that offers the reader various solution paths so that the one most appropriate to the specific situation can be used or adapted. 2.

35、 be monitored to accurately diagnose the root cause. Similarly, slowly increasing asymmetry over time of flight control surfaces such as flaps, ailerons and spoilers and rudder positions is important to know not only from a flying perspective but also a desire for fuel efficiency, especially on long
36、-haul flights. In the case of control surface asymmetry, airline operators are interested to the extent that they will monitor fuel consumption on a tail number basis and perform checks on the control surface positions of the planes with the worst fuel consumption because they see the need to do so;
37、 they are practicing Condition-based maintenance (CBM) based on fuel consumption changes. The cost benefit analysis of a PHM system is thus highly dependent on the requirements of the end customer yet, up to now, HM systems in general have been largely provided by the airplane manufacturers who have
38、 typically pre-determined the capabilities. However, ever changing priorities, such as an increased interest in fuel savings by the operators, is likely to introduce additional, new features or new functionalities to meet the operators defined needs. An example would be more sophisticated monitoring
39、 of control surface positions, especially any synchronization issues when they are being deployed. While the system would be operating satisfactorily, and safely, and meeting operating specifications, it might not be optimized for fuel efficiency. The interface to the aircraft will also need some de
40、gree of customization. This includes the degree of “on-board” analysis of the data and real-time action compared with downloading data at some later date and processing it in a ground software station. Thus, the user needs to determine, at the outset, the desired capabilities of a PHM system and bui
41、ld a CBA from that base-line. If the specific needs are not able to be precisely defined, then several scenarios could be created and a CBA computed for each, which would reveal the trade-offs between system complexity and return on investment. In the propulsion arena, which has historically tended
42、to be the lead sub-system for HM, mandated vibration monitoring resulted in vibration monitoring systems installed on engines and aircraft in the seventies. In more recent times ETOPS (extended twin engine operations), drove the need for an EHM system in commercial fixed wing operations, especially
43、those across water, as was also the case for rotorcraft operating in support of oil rigs in the North Sea. For airframe systems, the drivers are not so clear cut and there are no mandates to equip a fleet with a HM system. Instead, once the HM capabilities are visible and demonstrated to the airplan
44、e OEMs or the operators, then business cases start to be generated because the capability has generated new, perceived needs. In other words, capabilities sometimes generate needs as opposed to needs generating the development of new capabilities. However, some regulation-driven PHM functionality do
45、es exist today on airframes. For example, for emergency battery backup systems, there is a requirement to show the state of charge (SoC) indication before a flight so that the flight crew can be assured that the battery can be used during an emergency to restart the engine or to provide power for ot
46、her essential electrical functions. This is an example of a PHM system specific to the airframe. 5.2 Usage: The Considerations and Differences between Categories of OperatorsIt is well appreciated that military and commercial aircraft operate in starkly contrasting flight regimes and this makes a la
47、rge difference when considering the cost benefit approach to take. First and foremost, commercial operators fly similar operations every day, whereas military aircraft are typically conducting flying training and preparatory operational missions on a normal basis until a major exercise or combat/war
48、 scenario is brought to bear, at which time the intensity of operations increases significantly for an unknown period of time (could be several days to several years). Generally, military airplanes fly into and out of the same base on a daily basis whereas commercial planes are typically crossing the country or world where maintenance facilities at non-hub locations are
