Condition monitoring for hazardous material storage

In this contribution we show enhancements of the safety of hazardous material stores by the usage of a condition monitoring system. Hazardous material stores function as a store for dangerous chemicals. We use fire simulations to simulate a fire and use the results of this simulation in our condition monitoring system in order to show the attainable gains. The used condition monitoring system utilises multiple sensors which are distributed inside and outside of the hazardous material store. The values of the sensors are combined over multiple levels into one state for the complete system. This allows us to significantly enhance the detection time of dangerous operating states, compared to the use of dedicated single sensors.
