Abstract :
uel system is an essential system in aircraft used to drain fuel from the tank to
the engine. The failure of the fuel system can cause the plane to have an accident,
such as crash and death.
This research discussed the reliability of the fuel system on the TM-13 aircraft
which included the process of fuel system reliability. In flight regulations airplanes
included the safety and reliability of aircraft produced. The reliability assessment
began by identifying the system functions, the failure conditions, and the lack of
success. There were two methods used; quantitative methods in the form of fault tree
analysis and qualitative methods in the form of functional hazard assessment.
The results showed the probability of the total failure of the fuel system
capability on the TM-13 aircraft was 6.6580x10-10. The probability of this failure was
smaller than functional hazard assessment, 1x10-9. Because of the probability of the
failure, the fuel system on the TM-13 aircraft has met the requirements. Thus, the
architecture of the TM-13 aircraft fuel system is safe to use
