Distribution and Effectiveness aspects of fire and gas detector placement

38

SI-FGS Terms
Geographic Detector Coverage

Is defined as the fraction of process area where - if a fire of defined size / volume occurs the event is detectable by a given sensor placement array (and voting logic if automatic process actions are required)

e.g. - 90% probability that 2ooN fire detectors will be capable of sensing a given fire of a given intensity (e.g. 10 KW)

Copyright AE Solutions 2006

39

SI-FGS Terms
Scenario Detector Coverage
Is defined as the fraction of fire hazard scenarios that are detectable by a given sensor placement array (and voting logic if automatic process actions are required)

e.g. - 90% probability that a fire hazard of given intensity (e.g. 10 KW) will be detected by 2ooN fire detectors for a given hazard scenario (e.g. flange fire)

Copyright AE Solutions 2006

40

SI-FGS Terms
FGS Effectiveness The Probability of Failure on Demand (PFDavg ) associated with the FGS Safety Instrumented Function

This is the traditional PFDavg component calculated for sensors / logic solver / and final elements for a given architecture and test interval SIL target defined for the Fire Safety Functions

Copyright AE Solutions 2006

41

SI-FGS Terms
Mitigation Effectiveness The probability that the actions of the final elements prevent small fire or accumulation from escalating to a large fire or accumulation.

Examples of where the mitigation action may not be 100% effective are as follows:

Deluge does not completely put out the fire Isolation and / or bleed of pressure from the system is not fast enough to prevent the accumulation due to the leak from reaching the large catastrophic cloud size. Etc.

Study Methodology
1. Prepare performance targets 2. Collect applicable drawings of equipment installation 3. Survey the areas of interests w/ digital photographs 4. Assess the performance of existing detection using custom software 5. Identity gaps between actual and required performance 6. Propose measures to close these gaps
Copyright AE Solutions 2006

50

Mapping Software
The software that implements guidance is Micropacks FDA and GDA custom software package. The process starts by converting a detector field of view picture into a 2 D software footprint taking account all obstructions shown in the photograph. This footprint is overlaid onto a graded equipment layout

The resulting coverage is assessed using the performance targets.

Grade Maps & Assessments


Notes : (Detection Scenarios) 1. 2. The control and alarm target fires can be 'seen' by the flame detection system Because the Grade B detection target requires an alarm to a smaller fire size it is possible for two detectors to respond to the 50Kw control action target while being unable to respond to a smaller 10Kw alarm fire target. This case occurs when only one detector can 'see' the fire - two detectors are required for control action. This case occurs when the detector is too far from the hazards to 'see' the specified target fire size. If the fire incident escalated then the detector will respond No detector can see this hazard and there will be no response.
