工业过程报警管理研究进展

作为现代工业过程运行的首道保护层，报警系统对保障过程安全、可靠和高效生产起着举足轻重的作用.然而，目前大多数工业报警系统存在着“报警泛滥”这一问题，严重影响了报警系统的应有功能.本文结合工业过程特点和报警管理生命周期，总结了导致“报警泛滥”的主要原因，并依据这些原因，从报警建模与报警根源分析、报警阈值设计、报警优先级划分、报警类型识别与处理、报警系统性能评估等分类综述了报警管理关键技术研究进展、报警管理框架以及工业报警规范、报警管理软件与应用现状.最后，探讨了报警管理领域存在的难题和新挑战.

A Survey on Alarm Management for Industrial Processes

As the first protective layer of modern industrial processes, the alarm system plays a decisive role in ensuring safety, reliability and efficient production of the process. However, most of the current industrial alarm systems are suffering from the common issue "alarm flood", which seriously affects the required function of the alarm system. In this paper, according to the characteristics of industrial processes and alarm management life cycle, five main reasons leading to "alarm flood" are summarized; the state of the art of key technologies, systematic frameworks, specifications, software packages and application status about alarm management are reviewed in terms of alarm modeling and root-cause analysis, alarm limit design, alarm prioritization, alarm type identification and processing, and alarm system performance assessment. Finally, problems and new challenges in the field of alarm management are discussed.
