Integration of HAZOP and FMEA analysis

چکیده
Some results of the implementation of a new support tool for automated hazard analysis are presented in this paper. We describe in detail the further progresses on the application of intelligent systems to the hazard analysis and especially to the HAZOP and FMEA analysis. A previously developed program, that allows the automatic generation of the report of the HAZOP analysis as regards the determination of causes and consequences of variable deviations, has been enriched with the knowledge useful to perform a part of the FMEA analysis for the components of the control and the interlock systems of the plant. The advantages and limits of the use of the support tool for the HAZOP and FMEA analyses and of the qualitative modelling adopted for the knowledge representation are critically discussed.

stundy (HAZOP) and the component’s failures of major equipments were assessed by Failure mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA). Totally 68 hazards were identified and their risks were calculated. The highest risk (60) was belonged to the reduction of gas temperature before entering to the refinery and failure of DEA cooling system at the final node (DE). The failures of P-6 pump, F.C.V.4 valve, ...

متن کاملIntegration of interlock system analysis with automated HAZOP analysis
The paper details the integration of a method for the analysis of interlock systems with a software support system for HAZOP analysis. The proposed software aims to enhance the potential of HAZOP in terms of depth and ef®ciency of the analysis. This enhancement is reached through the continuation of the hazard and operability analysis, limited to a group of events which may hold high risks for ...
متن کاملExperience with the application of HAZOP to computer-based systems
This paper summarises the experience gained from application of Hazard and Operability Studies (HAZOP) and related techniques to four computer-based systems. Emphasis is placed on working practices and the integration of HAZOP-style analysis into a safety-oriented lifecycle. Two of the case studies are described in some detail. An industrial study is used to investigate working practices, highl...
