Industrial Plant Assessment™
The Industrial Plant Assessment (TM) is a set of R and Excel tools to analyze the plant performance utilizing the historical data (1-minute snapshot) to generate:
- Data Reconciliation
- Plant Operability Performance: Utilizing Principal Component Analysis applied to all Analog Inputs (AI) and Analog Outputs (AO) and then comparing them.
- Plant Oscillation: Utilizing Fast Fourier Transformation (FFT) convert the historical data to Frequency data, then identify oscitation clusters.
- Control Loop Performance: Applying Oscillation analysis to P, PI, or PID controllers utilizing CDL indexing technology, each controller is classified as
- Required Improvement
- Normal
- Excellent
Operating Trends for Excel™ (OT)
An Excel program to develop a visualization of the:
- Units (UM) within a Plant (PA)
- Control Modules (CM) within a Unit (UM)
- The objective is to understand and share with the operation the State-Based Control Design in a visualized environment.
- Develop an initial list of steps required to implement State-Based Control.
