Safety System Analysis on Gas-Steam Combined Cycle Power Plant

Risk factor in gas-steam combined cycle power plant (CCPP) was identified by application of safety system engineering principles and techniques. The CCPP system was divided into gas transmission subsystem, gas turbine subsystem, waste heat boiler subsystem, steam turbine subsystem and generation & transformation subsystem. The accident-proneness areas in each subsystem were studied, and various accident-causation modes were clarified. The bursting leakage accident caused by failure of steam-water pipelines was analyzed, and evaluated with Fault Tree method. The targeted countermeasures of safe operation and management were proposed.
