Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Proper monitoring of performance of an alarm system throughout its life cycle is an important factor in safety and reliability of industrial plants. Complexity and extent of modern industrial plants and poor design and management of alarm systems, have increased the importance of monitoring of alarm systems. Alarm floods, defined as a large number of alarms triggered in a short interval, is one of the problems that modern complexes are facing regularly. Many researchers have been focusing on this issue both in academia and industry. One approach to deal with alarm flood is analyzing alarms triggered in different floods and finding similar patterns. The identified patterns could help in locating the root cause of an alarm flood. In this paper a modified PrefixSpan sequential pattern recognition algorithm is used to find alarm patterns in different floods. The effectiveness of the algorithm is demonstrated with real alarm floods from a natural gas processing plant. (C) 2019 ISA. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
