Enhancing fossil power plant design, operation, and maintenance: human factor guidelines. Volume 3. Materials for preparing functional requirements. Final report
This three-volume document was developed to support and provide guidance to project design team personnel for integrating human factors principles into retrofit and new construction fossil-fired power plant projects. The document addresses the needs of design team personnel of the utility company and the architect/engineering, equipment vendor and construction firms involved in a fossil plant project. Guidance is provided for all levels of design team members, from upper management to technicians, pipefitters, etc. The information is presented in guideline format and includes: (1) the methods and sequencing to be used for integrating human factors principles into the design process; (2) the specific parameters and values to be used for designing equipment, subsystems, systems, facilities and for the plant as a whole based on sound human factors principles; and (3) examples of how to perform the recommended analyses and parameter/value applications. The guidelines cover all phases of project design, from feasibility studies through detailed design. Specific parameters and values are recommended for all areas of equipment and facility design in a fossil plant, from the coal yard to the distribution breakers. Volume 3: Materials for Preparing Functional Requirements. This supplement to the guidelines tells how to develop functional flow diagrams of plant processes and operations. It will be useful mainly to those who prepare the analyses that underlie statements of functional requirements for plant projects.
