Abstract:
A system includes at least one piece of equipment. The system also includes a state detector adapted to measure one or more operating parameters of the equipment. The system has a signature generator adapted to encode a plurality of data streams from the state detector into an operating signature for the equipment.
Abstract:
A method comprising selecting a piece of equipment to be monitored; selecting a plurality of operating parameters to monitor; calculating a deviation for each of the operating parameters; and calculating a composite index for the piece of equipment based on the deviations.
Abstract:
A system for monitoring an industrial process, comprising one or more sensors connected to one or more operating components of the industrial process; a remote monitoring station, comprising a computer and a database; and a connection between the one or more sensors and the remote monitoring station, wherein the remote monitoring station is at least about 100-2500 miles away from the industrial process, for example 500-1000 miles.
Abstract:
A method comprising operating a compressor; obtaining operating parameters of the compressor; starting a counter for a crankshaft angle from 0 to 360 degrees; calculating piston displacement and a volume of gas in a cylinder of the compressor as a function of the angle; and calculating a pressure within the cylinder.
