In this article, the oxygen distribution in the adsorption bed under different feed gas oxygen contents, different adsorption pressures, and different product hydrogen purity was studied for both vacuuming process and purging process. The study shows that during the process from the end of adsorption to the end of providing purging, the peak value of oxygen concentration in the adsorption bed gradually increases, with the highest value exceeding 30 times the oxygen content of the feed gas. Moreover, the concentration multiplier of oxygen in the adsorption bed increases with the increase of the adsorption pressure, decreases with the increase of the oxygen content in the feed gas, and increases with the decrease of the hydrogen product purity. When the oxygen content in the feed gas reaches 0.3% (vol), the peak value of oxygen concentration in the adsorption bed exceeds 10% (vol), which will make the front part of the oxygen concentration peak fall in an explosion limit range. As the decrease of product hydrogen content, the oxygen concentration peak in the adsorption bed will gradually move forward to the adsorption bed outlet, and even penetrate through the adsorption bed. And during the process of the oxygen concentration peak moving forward, the oxygen will enter the pipeline at the outlet of the adsorption bed, which will make the pipeline space of high-speed gas flow into an explosion range, bringing great risk to the device. The preferred option for safe operation of PSA for hydrogen purification from oxygen-containing feed gas is to deoxygenate the feed gas. When deoxygenation is not available, a lower adsorption pressure and a higher product hydrogen purity (greater than or equal to 99.9% (vol)) can be used to avoid the gas in the adsorption bed outlet pipeline being in the explosion range.展开更多

Usually, professors consider system safety with traditional probability techniques based on the linear chain of events. However, it could not comprehensively analyze system safety problems, especially in operating environment, interaction of subsystems, and human factors. Thus,we consider system safety as a control problem based on the system-theoretic accident model, the processes(STAMP) model and the system theoretic process analysis(STPA) technique to compensate the deficiency of traditional techniques. Meanwhile,system safety simulation is considered as system control simulation, and Monte Carlo methods are used which consider the range of uncertain parameters and operation deviation to quantitatively study system safety influence factors in control simulation. Firstly,we construct the STAMP model and STPA feedback control loop of the wheel brake system based on the system functional requirement. Then four unsafe control actions are identified, and causes of them are analyzed. Finally, we construct the Monte Carlo simulation model to analyze different scenarios under disturbance. The results provide a basis for choosing corresponding process model variables in constructing the context table and show that appropriate brake strategies could prevent hazards in aircraft landing taxiing.展开更多

Aseismic safety analysis is the key to appropriate containment vessel design. A prestressed concrete containment vessel (PCCV) model with a semi-infinite elastic foundation and practical arrangement of tendons has been established to analyze the aseismic ability of the CPR1000 PCCV structure under seismic loads and internal pressure. A method to model the prestressing tendon and its interaction with concrete was proposed and the axial force of the prestressing tendons showed that the simulation was reasonable and accurate. The numerical results show that for the concrete structure, the location of the cylinder wall bottom around the equipment hatch and near the ring beam are critical locations with large principal stress. The concrete cracks occurred at the bottom of the PCCV cylinder wall under the peak earthquake motion of 0.50 g, however the PCCV was still basically in an elastic state. Furthermore, the concrete cracks occurred around the equipment hatch under the design internal pressure of 0.4MPa, but the steel liner was still in the elastic stage and its leak-proof function soundness was verified. The results provide the basis for analysis and design of containment vessels.展开更多

The results indicate that the flow parameters affect the probability of fracture of a gas turbine disk since they can change the distribution of stress and temperature of the disk. The failure probability of the disk rises with increasing rotation Reynolds number and Chebyshev number, but descends with increasing inlet Reynolds number. In addition, a sampling based sensitivity analysis with finite difference method is conducted to determine the sensitivities of the safety with respect to the flow parameters. The sensitivity estimates show that the rotation Reynolds number is the dominant variable in safety analysis of a rotor-stator cavity among the flow parameters.展开更多

If adverse reactions occur during blood transfusion, it will seriously affect the life safety of the patient, in order to reduce or prevent the occurrence of delayed hemolytic blood transfusion phenomenon. The study mainly analyzes the safety problems during the blood transfusion process, and explores the value of irregular antibody screening before blood transfusion in preventing clinical blood transfusion safety. Retroanalysis of 100 blood transfusion patients in a grade A hospital from March 2019 to December 2020, and summarize the impact of irregular antibody screening before transfusion on transfusion adverse reactions. As a result, in the retrospective study of antibody screening, it was obviously found that the adverse reactions of irregular antibody screening were 0.458 times that of no irregular antibody screening, so it can be seen that the probability of adverse reactions in blood transfusion could be greatly reduced after receiving irregular antibody screening.展开更多

In 2003, it was, together with other safety and hazard analyses, subject to the Periodic Safety Review (PSR). In the PSR, it was stated that methodological PSA approaches and guidelines have evoluted during the past decade and several observations were provided, concerning the area screening process, residual risk and treatment of plant damage states and risk from radioactivity releases (i.e., Level 2 PSA). In order to address the PSR observations, upgrade ofKrsko NPP internal flooding PSA was undertaken. The area screening process was revisited in order to cover the areas without automatic reactor trip equipment. The model was extended to Level 2. Residual risk was estimated at both Level 1 and Level 2, in terms of core damage frequency (CDF) and large early release frequency (LERF), respectively.展开更多

Compared with local sensitivity analysis results, global sensitivity analysis could provide more information on parameter inter- actions, which are significant in complex system safety analysis. First, a deterministic aviation reciprocating engine thermody- namics model is developed and parameters of interest are defined as random variables. Then, samples are generated by Monte Carlo method for the parameters used in engine model on the basis of definition of factor distribution. Eventually, results from engine model are generated and importance indices are calculated. Based on the analysis results, design is improved to satisfy the airworthiness requirements. The results reveal that by using global sensitivity analysis, the parameters could be ranked with respect to their importance, including first order indices and total sensitivity indices. By reducing the uncertainty of parameters and adjusting the range of inputs, safety criteria would be satisfied.展开更多

Energy and emissions could be reduced with the compromise of travel time in some environment-focused Connected Vehicle(CV) applications, which highlighted performance measures in terms of mobility and sustainability. Nevertheless, few studies have focused on safety assessment of such CV applications. In this study, a CV-based eco-driving application, namely, Eco-Approach and Departure(EAD), is selected as an example. A microscopic safety analysis tool, Surrogate Safety Assessment Model(SSAM), is utilized to assess the safety influence of EAD application in multiple scenarios. Further analysis is performed from two perspectives:(1) application users, i.e., EAD-equipped vehicles versus unequipped vehicles; and(2) traffic operators, i.e., overall traffic performance with and without the introduction of EAD. For each perspective, conflict statistics(e.g., frequency, time-to-collision distribution), overall and by type, are analyzed. Results indicate EAD is beneficial in improving the safety performance of equipped vehicles. The influence of EAD on overall traffic is scenario dependent, and a high penetration rate shows positive effects on network-wide safety benefits for most scenarios.展开更多

文摘In order to analysis the oxygen distribution in the adsorption bed during the hydrogen purification process from oxygen-containing feed gas and the safety of device operation, this article established a non-isothermal model for the pressure swing adsorption (PSA) separation process of 4-component (H_(2)/O_(2)/N_(2)/CH_(4)), and adopted a composite adsorption bed of activated carbon and molecular sieve. In this article, the oxygen distribution in the adsorption bed under different feed gas oxygen contents, different adsorption pressures, and different product hydrogen purity was studied for both vacuuming process and purging process. The study shows that during the process from the end of adsorption to the end of providing purging, the peak value of oxygen concentration in the adsorption bed gradually increases, with the highest value exceeding 30 times the oxygen content of the feed gas. Moreover, the concentration multiplier of oxygen in the adsorption bed increases with the increase of the adsorption pressure, decreases with the increase of the oxygen content in the feed gas, and increases with the decrease of the hydrogen product purity. When the oxygen content in the feed gas reaches 0.3% (vol), the peak value of oxygen concentration in the adsorption bed exceeds 10% (vol), which will make the front part of the oxygen concentration peak fall in an explosion limit range. As the decrease of product hydrogen content, the oxygen concentration peak in the adsorption bed will gradually move forward to the adsorption bed outlet, and even penetrate through the adsorption bed. And during the process of the oxygen concentration peak moving forward, the oxygen will enter the pipeline at the outlet of the adsorption bed, which will make the pipeline space of high-speed gas flow into an explosion range, bringing great risk to the device. The preferred option for safe operation of PSA for hydrogen purification from oxygen-containing feed gas is to deoxygenate the feed gas. When deoxygenation is not available, a lower adsorption pressure and a higher product hydrogen purity (greater than or equal to 99.9% (vol)) can be used to avoid the gas in the adsorption bed outlet pipeline being in the explosion range.

文摘Abstract: The containment vessel of a nuclear power plant is the last barrier to prevent nuclear reactor radiation. Aseismic safety analysis is the key to appropriate containment vessel design. A prestressed concrete containment vessel (PCCV) model with a semi-infinite elastic foundation and practical arrangement of tendons has been established to analyze the aseismic ability of the CPR1000 PCCV structure under seismic loads and internal pressure. A method to model the prestressing tendon and its interaction with concrete was proposed and the axial force of the prestressing tendons showed that the simulation was reasonable and accurate. The numerical results show that for the concrete structure, the location of the cylinder wall bottom around the equipment hatch and near the ring beam are critical locations with large principal stress. The concrete cracks occurred at the bottom of the PCCV cylinder wall under the peak earthquake motion of 0.50 g, however the PCCV was still basically in an elastic state. Furthermore, the concrete cracks occurred around the equipment hatch under the design internal pressure of 0.4MPa, but the steel liner was still in the elastic stage and its leak-proof function soundness was verified. The results provide the basis for analysis and design of containment vessels.

文摘In order to ensure the safety of engine life limited parts (ELLP) according to airworthiness regulations, a numerical approach integrating one-way fluid structure interaction (FSI) and probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) is developed, by which the variation of flow parameters in a rotor-stator cavity on the safety of gas turbine disks is investigated. The results indicate that the flow parameters affect the probability of fracture of a gas turbine disk since they can change the distribution of stress and temperature of the disk. The failure probability of the disk rises with increasing rotation Reynolds number and Chebyshev number, but descends with increasing inlet Reynolds number. In addition, a sampling based sensitivity analysis with finite difference method is conducted to determine the sensitivities of the safety with respect to the flow parameters. The sensitivity estimates show that the rotation Reynolds number is the dominant variable in safety analysis of a rotor-stator cavity among the flow parameters.

文摘The original internal flooding probabilistic safety analysis (PSA) study of Krsko Nuclear Power Plant (two-loop Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) plant of Westinghouse design) was performed in mid nineties and limited to reactor core damage risk (Level 1 PSA). In 2003, it was, together with other safety and hazard analyses, subject to the Periodic Safety Review (PSR). In the PSR, it was stated that methodological PSA approaches and guidelines have evoluted during the past decade and several observations were provided, concerning the area screening process, residual risk and treatment of plant damage states and risk from radioactivity releases (i.e., Level 2 PSA). In order to address the PSR observations, upgrade ofKrsko NPP internal flooding PSA was undertaken. The area screening process was revisited in order to cover the areas without automatic reactor trip equipment. The model was extended to Level 2. Residual risk was estimated at both Level 1 and Level 2, in terms of core damage frequency (CDF) and large early release frequency (LERF), respectively.
文摘Environment and safety analysis of test blanket module ( TBM ) is an important part of ITER safety design process. The aim is to ensure that the TBM do not adversely affect the safety of ITER and environment around ITER. Accurate calculations of all radioactivity and potential harmfulness are very important to environment and safety analysis, nuclear waste disposing and the reactor running, and so on.
文摘To ensure the safe transportation of radioactive materials,numerous countries have established specific standards.For the transfer of fissile materials,it is imperative that the material within the packaging remains in a subcritical state during routine,normal,and accidental transport conditions.In the event of an accident,the rods within the storage tank may become rearranged,introducing uncertainty that must be accounted for to ensure that criticality analysis results are conservative.Historically,this uncertainty was addressed overly conservatively due to limited research on non-uniform arrangement scenarios,which proved unsuitable for criticality safety analysis of spent fuel packages.This paper introduced three distinct methods to non-uniformly rearrange fuel rods—Uniform Arrangement by Blocks,Layer-by-Layer Determination,and Birdcage Deformation—and meticulously evaluates the influences of rod rearrangement on the effective multiplication factor of neutrons,k eff,utilizing the Monte Carlo method.Ultimately,this study presents a holistic method capable of encompassing the entire spectrum of potential effects stemming from the rearrangement of fuel rods during rods mispositioning accident.By augmenting the safety margin,this approach proves to be adeptly suited for the criticality safety analysis of nuclear fuel transport containers.

文摘The economical,stable and efficient operation of power systems is intrinsically linked to secondary systems and their diverse functional applications.With the advancement of communication technologies,control algorithms,and emerging regulatory entities,modern power systems have evolved to become more intelligent yet complex compared to traditional grids.As the conceptual framework of power system security expands from primary system safety to a holistic cyber-physical paradigm,the functional safety of secondary systems has emerged as a critical and paramount requirement for ensuring overall grid stability and reliability.This paper systematically reviews research on functional safety analysis and mitigation strategies for secondary systems from a cyber-physical perspective.Firstly,the basic concept and propagation mechanism of power system functional security are introduced;secondly,the research difficulties of functional security are analysed from the three dimensions of system,data and software security;then,the current research status of functional security in different dimensions is summarised;finally,we offer a forward-looking perspective on future research directions for analysing and mitigating functional safety risks,emphasising the prevention of physical grid failures caused by secondary system anomalies from a cyber-physical viewpoint.

文摘This paper presents an application of global sensitivity analysis for system safety analysis of reciprocating aircraft engine. Compared with local sensitivity analysis results, global sensitivity analysis could provide more information on parameter inter- actions, which are significant in complex system safety analysis. First, a deterministic aviation reciprocating engine thermody- namics model is developed and parameters of interest are defined as random variables. Then, samples are generated by Monte Carlo method for the parameters used in engine model on the basis of definition of factor distribution. Eventually, results from engine model are generated and importance indices are calculated. Based on the analysis results, design is improved to satisfy the airworthiness requirements. The results reveal that by using global sensitivity analysis, the parameters could be ranked with respect to their importance, including first order indices and total sensitivity indices. By reducing the uncertainty of parameters and adjusting the range of inputs, safety criteria would be satisfied.

文摘Various intelligent transportation systems and strategies for reducing vehicle fuel consumption and emissions have been developed. Energy and emissions could be reduced with the compromise of travel time in some environment-focused Connected Vehicle(CV) applications, which highlighted performance measures in terms of mobility and sustainability. Nevertheless, few studies have focused on safety assessment of such CV applications. In this study, a CV-based eco-driving application, namely, Eco-Approach and Departure(EAD), is selected as an example. A microscopic safety analysis tool, Surrogate Safety Assessment Model(SSAM), is utilized to assess the safety influence of EAD application in multiple scenarios. Further analysis is performed from two perspectives:(1) application users, i.e., EAD-equipped vehicles versus unequipped vehicles; and(2) traffic operators, i.e., overall traffic performance with and without the introduction of EAD. For each perspective, conflict statistics(e.g., frequency, time-to-collision distribution), overall and by type, are analyzed. Results indicate EAD is beneficial in improving the safety performance of equipped vehicles. The influence of EAD on overall traffic is scenario dependent, and a high penetration rate shows positive effects on network-wide safety benefits for most scenarios.

文摘The high risk of injury resulting from non-motorized vehicle(NMV)crashes has created the goal of using the 3E strategy to comprehensively improve NMV safety.Traditional safety improvement methods identify hot zones generally by crash frequency or density,which is effective for roadway engineering improvements but neglects characteristics related to other improvements such as safety education.As safety education would be more effective if targeted at the residences of crash-involved road users,the traditional approach to hot zones may therefore provide biased results for such alternative countermeasures.After confirming that 77.17%of NMV crashes occurred outside the involved riders’areas of residence,this study compared the differences between the locations of crashes and the residences of NMV crash-involved riders in safety influencing factors and hot zone identification.A Poisson lognormal bivariate conditional autoregressive(PLN-BCAR)model was developed to account for potential correlations between crashes and involved riders.The model was compared with the univariate Poisson lognormal conditional autoregressive(UPLN-CAR)model and the bivariate Poisson lognormal conditional autoregressive(BPLNCAR)model;the PLN-BCAR model outperformed the other two models in its better interpretation of the influencing factors and its more efficient parameter estimation.Model results indicated that crashes were mainly associated with roadway and land use characteristics,while involved road users were mainly associated with socioeconomic and land use characteristics.The potential for safety improvement method was adopted to identify hot zones for countermeasure implementation.Results showed over 60%of the identified hot zones were inconsistent:they needed improvement in either engineering or education but not both.These findings can help target the type of improvement to better utilize resources for NMV safety.
