چکیده

This article addresses the detection and diagnosis of oscillations in process measurements. Principal components analysis (PCA) can be applied to the power spectra for detection of groups of oscillatory process measurements. In cases where a well defined periodic oscillation is detected then diagnosis of the root cause is possible using a signature that grows stronger closer to the source. Two candidates for the signature are the distortion factor and a non-linearity statistic based on surrogate data. Their performance is compared using experimental data and an industrial data set.

Root Cause Diagnosis of Plant-wide Oscillations using the Adjacency Matrix

Oscillations are a common type of plant-wide disturbances whose effects propagate to many units and thus may impact overall process performance. It is important to detect and diagnose such oscillations early in order to rectify the situation. Many frequency domain tools such as the power spectrum and spectrum envelope methods are capable of detecting the oscillation frequency. However, few meth...

Detection and Diagnosis of Plant-wide Oscillations From Industrial Data using the Spectral Envelope Method ?

Plant-wide oscillations are common in many processes. Their effects propagate to many units and may impact the overall process performance. It is important to detect and diagnose the cause of such oscillations in order to rectify the situation. This paper proposes a new procedure to detect and diagnose plant-wide oscillations using routine operating data. A technique called spectral envelope is...

Detection of power oscillation and simultaneous faults using Clark transform

Distance relays are widely used to protect transmission lines. Sometimes, in these lines due to the occurrence of the oscillation of the power, the impedance calculated in the distance relay enters into its functional zones and leads to the cutting off of the lines. This issue can cause global power outages. Accordingly, in this paper, a Clark-based method for detecting the oscillation of power...

Diagnosis of root cause for oscillations in closed-loop chemical process systems

Oscillations in process plants degrade the performance of control loops resulting in poor product quality. Therefore, plant-wide oscillation diagnosis is an essential task to maintain the performance of control loops. In recent years, significant research has been performed on plant-wide oscillation diagnosis. It has been reported that the three major causes for oscillations in linear closed-lo...

Root Cause Diagnosis of Plantwide Disturbance Using Harmonic Analysis

Disturbances in the form of oscillations are usually originated in process plants due to various faults such as sensor faults, valve faults, process faults and controller tuning faults. Many of these faults can be represented as nonlinearities. Faults in the form of nonlinearities may produce oscillations with a fundamental frequency and its harmonics. This study presents a novel method based o...
