Description
Phast Risk 6.6 contains a new extension for modelling the risks from explosions. This new approach to explosion modelling takes account of the effects of congestion and confinement when calculating overpressure and impulse results. The new modelling allows the user to select either the Multi Energy and Baker Strehlow Tang explosion methodologies. This course describes how to use the extensive new functionality, including defining obstructed regions, buildings and associated vulnerability characteristics for a range of effect types and creating additional vulnerability sets for use when assessing exceedance criteria. The training goes on to describe the extensive results assessment capabilities of the much extended risk reporting functionality available in Phast Risk 6.6.
Learning objectives
Upon completion of this course, participants will understand and be able to use the congested explosion modelling available in the Phast Risk explosion modelling extension. This course focuses on the features available in the software and explains how to use these to build a model of your plant which includes congestion and confinement information as well as building specific vulnerability characteristics.
Target group
Experienced risk analysts with previous experience using Phast Risk who need to carry out detailed risk modelling calculations involving explosions. The training does not cover Phast and Phast Risk usage and assumes delegates are already familiar with the software.
| Prerequisite The course is suitable for users who are already familiar with Phast Risk and have previously attended SA-01 Phast introduction and SA-02 Phast Risk introduction training. SA-06 Phast advanced risk modelling and SA-13 Phast advanced explosion modelling would also be of benefit but is not mandatory. |
