Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of diesel engine failure analysis, and in particular to a method for common cause failure analysis of diesel engines based on repairable dynamic fault trees. Background Technology
[0002] Diesel engines are primarily used in the transportation industry and are the main power source for heavy-duty vehicles. Various factors are considered when selecting diesel engines for heavy-duty vehicles, including engine reliability and availability, engine maintenance and installation costs, and engine operating costs. However, the operating and maintenance costs of each diesel engine are particularly significant during vehicle operation. This is why transportation companies are committed to developing and improving engine performance to suit operations and optimize engine performance. Improving engine performance is key to ensuring optimal results during use, timely prediction of failures, and extending vehicle lifespan. Therefore, it is essential to focus on improving the reliability of vehicle engines.
[0003] The most effective way to improve the reliability of diesel engines is to incorporate reliability concepts into their design phase. This involves conducting appropriate reliability calculations and analyses to prevent problems before they occur (reducing manufacturing costs and improving overall product lifecycle reliability). Therefore, improving the reliability of diesel engine systems can prevent significant personal injury and economic losses caused by system reliability issues.
[0004] When performing repairable dynamic fault tree modeling for repairable systems like diesel engines, deterministic and probabilistic common-cause failures of components are not considered. For example, in real-world redundant systems, neglecting the impact of common-cause failures of redundant components on system reliability analysis will lead to discrepancies between the analysis results and the actual situation, rendering the analysis worthless.
[0005] In existing technologies, repairable dynamic fault tree (RTF) modeling for common-cause failure analysis in diesel engines typically uses OR logic gates to analyze redundant components. For example, Markov-based RTFs consider both failure rate and maintainability rate to calculate the instantaneous availability of the diesel engine system. However, RTFs that do not consider common-cause failures cannot calculate the impact of actual redundant component failures on system reliability, leading to discrepancies between the analysis results and actual conditions. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a diesel engine common cause failure analysis method based on repairable dynamic fault trees, which solves the problem that the reliability assessment of diesel engines is not accurate enough in the prior art when common cause failures are not considered. This method uses deterministic common cause failures and probabilistic common cause failures as theoretical models to perform diesel engine common cause failure analysis. It ensures that when repairable dynamic fault trees are used to analyze the reliability of diesel engine redundant systems, the error between the analysis and the actual system reliability analysis is reduced, thus providing a guarantee for the normal operation of diesel engines.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.
[0071] Reference Figure 1 As shown, this invention provides a diesel engine common cause failure analysis method based on a repairable dynamic fault tree, including the following specific steps S1 to S6; the principle is as follows: Figure 2 As shown.
[0072] S1. Analyze the principle and structure of the diesel engine system to determine the repairable dynamic fault tree top event; that is, confirm the failure logic characteristics of the diesel engine system and determine the failure criteria of the diesel engine system; step S1 specifically includes:
[0073] S11. A diesel engine electronic control system is used to monitor the real-time operating status of the diesel engine oil;
[0074] The diesel engine electronic control system is a device that monitors the operating status of the diesel engine. During operation, the electronic control system can monitor changes in the diesel engine's operation in real time, provide timely feedback on any issues that arise, and take appropriate measures accordingly. This diesel engine electronic control system includes one start signal, one control signal, one foot pedal signal, one intercom device, one power supply, one backup power supply, one controller, one sensor system, one actuator, and one fuel cut-off solenoid valve.
[0075] S12. The diesel engine electronic control system is regarded as a unit connected in series with the diesel engine, and the fault of the diesel engine electronic control system is selected as the top event of the repairable dynamic fault tree.
[0076] In addition to assisting the operation of the diesel engine, the diesel engine electronic control system also plays a role in monitoring the real-time status of the diesel engine and adjusting the diesel engine power source in a timely manner. Therefore, in the modeling, the diesel engine electronic control system is treated as a series unit, and "diesel engine electronic control system failure" is selected as the top event.
[0077] S2. Based on the actual situation of the diesel engine system, select a common cause failure model and derive a quantitative calculation formula for the common cause failure logic gate using a Markov repairable system; specifically including:
[0078] S21. Select the common cause failure model based on the actual situation of the diesel engine system;
[0079] First assume (CC1, CC2, ..., CC) n The probability of a common cause (P1, P2, ..., P) occurring is called the triggering event; n x represents the probability that a related basic event is forced to occur when the triggering event occurs; n is a positive integer. t X is the probability of a component failing independently. IF This represents the probability of a component failure occurring. The formula for calculating probabilistic common-cause failure at the component level is:
[0080] X IF = (CC1·P1+CC2·P2+…+CC) n ·P n )+x t (1)
[0081] If (CC1, CC2, ..., CC) nIf all values are 1, then the common cause failure model is a deterministic common cause failure model; otherwise, it is a probabilistic common cause failure model.
[0082] S22. Derivation of the quantitative calculation formula for deterministic common-cause failure logic gates; such as Figure 3 The diagram shown is a conversion of the deterministic common-cause failure logic gate into a Markov model.
[0083] Based on the deterministic common-cause failure characteristics of diesel engines, a β model is adopted. The β model assumes that two failure modes exist in the system components: one is the independent failure λ of the component. A One type is deterministic common-cause failure λ C Both failure modes lead to component failure, but in a repairable system like a diesel engine, each failure mode also has a corresponding repair rate, such as... Figure 6 As shown. The β model is generally determined through comprehensive expert evaluation, for example, to ensure the scientific validity of the data. During implementation, the β factor evaluation is conducted by a panel of at least three experts who provide a comprehensive score.
[0084] The formula for calculating the β model factor is as follows:
[0085]
[0086] in
[0087] λ B =λ A +λ C
[0088] In the above formula, λ B Let λ be the probability of complete component failure. A For the component-independent failure rate, λ C This represents the common-cause failure rate.
[0089] In the following formula, μ A For input independent failure x t The maintenance rate of (t), λ A For input independent failure x t The failure rate of (t). μ C To input the maintenance rate of deterministic common-cause failure ccf(t), λ C Let C(t) be the failure rate of the deterministic common-cause failure (ccf(t)). Let C(t) be the normal state probability of the common-cause gate output event at time t. From the deterministic common-cause failure logic, the state transition matrix of the deterministic common-cause failure logic gate for a repairable dynamic fault tree is:

For example... Figure 3 As shown in the table below, 0 corresponds to rule 1, 1 corresponds to rule 2, 2 corresponds to rule 3, and so on.

[0102] In real-world systems, deterministic common-cause failures can lead to the failure of different components with varying probabilities. This behavior is called probabilistic common-cause failure. A system can be affected by probabilistic common-cause failures from multiple different systems, denoted as CC1, CC2, ..., CC2. n Each CC i This will affect the components, assuming component A has a failure probability of P. iA P iA =Pr(Component A Fault / CC) i (occurred). Among them, CC i The probability of occurrence is PCC i PCC i and P iA All hypothetical input parameters are derived from comprehensive expert evaluation. This embodiment selects an explicit modeling method, such as... Figure 7 As shown, this paper proposes a method for repairing dynamic fault trees for probabilistic common-cause failures by combining existing probabilistic common-cause failure theory with Markov models and applying the model to repairable dynamic fault trees.
[0103] Based on the characteristics of repairable dynamic fault trees, a probabilistic common-cause explicit modeling method is adopted. (cc1,cc2,…,cc n The probability of a common cause occurring is called a triggering event. Therefore, the formula for calculating probabilistic common cause failures at the component level is:
[0104] X IF =(cc1·q1+cc2·q2+…+cc n ·q n )+x t (1)
[0105] In the following formula, μ1 represents the input-independent failure x t The maintenance rate of (t), x t For input independent failure x t The failure rate of cc1(t). μ2 is the repair rate of the input probabilistic common-cause failure cc1(t), where cc1 is the failure rate of the input probabilistic common-cause failure cc1(t). q1 is the occurrence rate of the triggering event, and μ3 is the repair rate corresponding to q1. q1(t) is the failure state probability of the output event of the probabilistic common-cause gate at time t. The state transition matrix corresponding to the probabilistic common-cause failure is as follows:

[0109] μ3Δt represents the probability that the input event q1(t) will cause a system state transition due to the maintenance rate μ3 within the time interval Δt, and q1Δt represents the probability that the input event q1(t) will cause a system state transition due to the failure rate q1 within the time interval Δt.
[0110] Input event x into a probabilistic common factor gate t The functions x, cc1(t), q1(t), and output event y(t) have two states: state 0 is the normal working state, and state 1 is the fault state. Based on x... t The relationship between the inputs and outputs of y(t), cc1(t), q1(t), and y(t) yields a list of quantitative operational rules for the probabilistic common factor gate, as shown in Table 2.

Determine the failure rate and repair rate of each component in the diesel engine system: Determine the repair and failure logic relationship between components, use a direct algorithm and the derived common cause failure logic gate quantitative calculation formula to obtain the transient availability of the repairable dynamic fault tree top event;
[0120] That is: establish the state transition matrix of the repairable component, obtain the availability of the repairable component at time t from the state transition, and use a direct algorithm and the derived formula for the common cause failure logic gate to calculate the transient availability of the repairable dynamic fault tree top event (i.e., the success probability of the diesel engine electronic control system); step S3 specifically includes:

[0122] Assume that components in a complex repairable system have only two states: a normal, usable state and a failed state, λ. E and μ E If so, the available state and the failed state of the repairable component are 0 and 1 respectively.
[0123] The state transition matrix of the repairable component is as follows:
[0124]
[0125] According to Markov's theorem for repairable systems, the state matrix of a repairable component can be transformed into:

This identifies the weak component units of the diesel engine system, contributing to the improvement of the reliability of the diesel engine system throughout its entire life cycle.
[0172] In this embodiment, MATLAB 2019b is used as the simulation software to simulate the reliability assessment of the diesel engine electronic control system when considering both dynamic maintenance and fault characteristics. The deterministic common cause failure logic gate and probabilistic common cause failure logic gate of the repairable dynamic fault tree of the present invention are compared with the repairable dynamic fault tree that does not consider common cause failures, and the availability quantitative analysis value of the diesel engine electronic control system based on the repairable dynamic fault tree model is output.
[0173] This embodiment assumes that the diesel engine electronic control system and components operate in two states: fault and normal, and that the component failure rate and repair rate follow an exponential distribution. For example... Figure 5 The diagram shown is a schematic of the diesel engine electronic control system. The components include: start signal x1, control signal x2, foot pedal signal x3, intercom device x4, power supply x5, backup power supply x6, controller x7, sensor system x8, actuator x9, and fuel cut-off solenoid valve x1. 10 Its failure rate (10) -3 / h -1The values were 0.082, 0.07, 0.05, 0.064, 0.04, 0.04, 0.05, 0.01, 0.022, and 0.07, respectively, with a repair rate ( / h). -1 The values are 1.3, 1.5, 0.8, 0.5, 0.6, 0.6, 1.5, 0.85, 0.96 and 0.8 respectively.
[0174] In the deterministic common-cause failure model, the β factor is assumed to be 0.2, and the corresponding virtual maintenance rate μ is set to 0.2. In the probabilistic common-cause failure model, C1 and P1 are set to 0.02 and 0.5, respectively, and their equivalent maintenance rates μ1 and μ2 are set to 0.2 and 0.5, respectively.

[0178] K1={x1},K2={x2},K3={x3},K4={x4},K5={x7},K6={x8},K7={x9},K8={x 10},K9={C,x5},K 10 ={x8,x9,x 10}
[0179] Consider the minimum cut set of the RDFTA of PCCF:
[0180] K1={x1},K2={x2},K3={x3},K4={x4},K5={x7},K6={x8},K7={x9},K8={x 10},K9={x6,x5},K 10 ={CC1,P1}K 11 ={CC1,P1},K 12 ={x8,x9,x 10}
[0181] Figure 8The data shows that the availability of the electronic control system (ECU) is higher when deterministic common-cause failure is not considered than when deterministic common-cause failure is considered. This indicates that deterministic common-cause failure has a significant impact on the reliability of diesel engine ECUs. However, considering the realities of complex systems, when deterministic common-cause failure does not completely lead to system failure, the availability when considering probabilistic common-cause failure is higher than that when considering deterministic common-cause failure, but lower than that when deterministic common-cause failure is not considered. Figure 8 The analysis results show that probabilistic common-cause failure is more consistent with the actual situation of complex repairable systems.
[0182] Figure 9 The maintenance importance of diesel engine electronic control system components is presented for consideration of deterministic common-cause failures, deterministic common-cause failures, and probabilistic common-cause failures. The figure shows the maintenance importance of redundant components, with C1 and P1 having the highest maintenance importance in the probabilistic common-cause failure model. This concludes that in redundant systems, the impact of probabilistic common-cause failures on system reliability should be considered, reducing the deviation between the results of repairable dynamic fault tree analysis and actual conditions.
[0183] The simulation results above clearly show that the diesel engine common cause failure analysis method based on repairable dynamic fault tree proposed in this invention can quickly and accurately calculate the availability and maintenance importance of the common cause failure of redundant systems, which is more in line with the reliability analysis of redundant systems in actual situations.
[0184] In summary, the diesel engine common cause failure analysis method based on repairable dynamic fault tree of the present invention has high accuracy and strong universality, and can accurately assess the reliability of diesel engines under the influence of common cause failure.
[0185] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this invention without departing from its spirit and scope. Therefore, if these modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of this invention and their equivalents, this invention also intends to include these modifications and variations.
