Abstract

There was an amazing growth in the korean shipbuilding industry considering the industrial magnitude and the technical level. On the contrary of the growth, there are a number of accidents in the shipbuilding yard. According to the statistic data of the industrial accident in the last 7 years, the number of accidental fatalities in shipbuilding industries are 1.48 ‱ which are over more than doubles of the average in the Korean industries, 0.66 ‱. Thus, through an accident investigation of fire and explosion case during painting work in the tank of the crude oil carrier, it have been tried to diagnose actual conditions in the shipbuilding yards.

한국의 조선업은 짧은 기간에도 불구하고 규모나 질적 면에서 놀라운 성장을 이루어냈다. 하지만 최근 7년간의 산업재해 통계를 분석했을 때, 조선업 평균 사고사망만인율이 1.48로 전업종 0.66대비 2배가 넘고, 재해율 또한 0.93%로 전업종 평균 0.57% 대비 높은 것으로 나타나 세계조선 강국이라는 말을 무색하게 하고 있다. 따라서 2017년 유조선 탱크 내부에서 도장 작업 중 발생한 사고에 대한 분석을 통해 한국 조선업의 현재를 진단하고자 하였다. 사고 요인 도출을 위해 ECFC(Effects and causal factors charting)를 이용하였으며, 점화원 및 가연물에 대한 분석을 위해 실험, 측정 및 CFD를 이용한 시뮬레이션을 실시하였다.
