Run Risk Analysis of Solid Rocket Motor Waterjet Clearing System

Abstract:

According to the hazard identification theory, run risks of solid rocket motor waterjet clearing system were identified from three different angles and potential causes of run risks were investigated; based on analysis of accidents that may occur in the running of solid rocket motor waterjet clearing system, fault tree analysis of propellant combustion/explosion and AP wastewater spill was carried out, minimal cut sets (path sets) and structural importance of each basic event were obtained, and furthermore corresponding recommendations in the accident prevention of solid rocket motor waterjet clearing system running were given accordingly.
