Reliability Analysis of Ventilation System Based on Fuzzy Fault Tree

Abstract:

The fuzzy Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) of mine ventilation system is set up based on thorough composition of the system, with triangular fuzzy number being used as probability of elementary event and “mine ventilation system fault” being deemed as top event. In this paper, the reliability of FTA has been analyzed and applied to a mine in Gansu Province. The result shows that the minimum cut set of fault tree is 549 and the main reason why it has a huge number of minimum cut set is Level 1，Event 7，“Monitoring feedback system failure”. The reliability of top event and Level 1 event is low, and fuzzy failure probability of top event is (0.009, 0.014, 0.009), the maximum of which is 2.3% of it. The degree of fuzzy importance of elementary event is the highest in Level 1，Event 7. The maximum of fuzzy importance is 0.0843 by the normalization and the rest vary from 0.0050 to 0.0100 mostly.
