Application of Functional Analysis on a SCADA System of a Thermal Power Plant

Abstract: The aim of this paper is to present firstly the functionality of a supervisory system for complex processes, and secondly to present the concepts of SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) systems. A functional analysis technique SADT (Structured Analysis and Design Technique) has been applied on an example of a SCADA system of a thermal power plant. This technique allows a functional description of a SCADA system. The paper briefly discusses the functions of a SCADA system and some advantages of the … Show more

“…FMECA takes three parameters into consideration: Severity (S), Occurrence frequency (F) and Detection (D). A scale of 1 (without adverse effects) to 4 (immediate danger to personnel and installation, requiring emergency shutdown) has been suggested to rate the severity of the failure mode (AIChE/CCPS, 1985), with levels 2 and 3 corresponding respectively to low-risk situations, which do not require shutdown, and those of higher risk levels, which require normal shutdown [9]. The RPN is a measure used to identify critical failure modes associated with process.…”
