Power Performance Calculations (Exaquantum/PPC)

Power plant operators have been analyzing plant performance for many years using a variety of techniques. This information has typically been available to only a select number of users such as process engineers, leaving the broader community oblivious to this important information.

Exaquantum/PPC makes this information available to all relevant users in a form which can be readily understood enabling broader usage and thus greater benefits to the business as a whole.

Exaquantum/PPC is especially beneficial for users of Yokogawa distributed control and plant information systems (DCS and PIMS) as it leverages the existing infrastructure and presents performance information using consistent graphical formats in a familiar environment. Equally it can be applied to any other installed systems by leveraging open standards.

Detalles

  • Calculates the efficiencies of primary and auxiliary power plant equipment such as boilers and turbines, plus overall plant efficiency from the operation data collected by Exaquantum PIMS
  • Acquires data via OPC DA and HDA interfaces from other vendors systems
  • ideal for replacing existing obsolete Systems used for performance calculations
  • Catch-up on missing data after a temporary communication failure
  • Easy integration with Yokogawa DCS graphics to leverage the existing resources for a graphical and dynamic display of calculation results
  • An Excel add-in report generation function (Microsoft Office 2010- compatible) enables reusable reports to be tailored for each user
  • Incorporates standard templates containing tagged performance calculation blocks based on ASME PTC where tailored calculation blocks are also available

Información del Producto
Descripción General:

Exaquantum is a comprehensive Plant Information Management System (PIMS) incorporating a data historian for real time and historical data, alarms, and events along with aggregations, role-based views and KPIs, graphical HMI, trends, reports, and integration with different systems.  It provides a cetralized repository for users throughout the plant and is the foundation for most of Yokogawa's production, safety, and alarm optimization solutions and operator effectiveness solutions. Exaquantum can acquire data from all facets of a process and transform that data into easily usable, high-value actionable information that can be made avaialable across the enterprise.

Descripción General:

Exaquantum /PPC provides real-time power performance calculations for primary and auxilliary equipment (such as boilers, turbines, heat exchangers) as well as overall plant efficiency.

The configuration environment is easy to use with pre-built blocks based on ASME PTC that are used to defined specific plant configurations. 'What-if' analysis provides the ability to examine different plant operating scenarios and the impact.

The solution provides key performance indicator dashboards for targeted useres to increase performance awareness that enables improved power plant efficiency, optimized maintenance, better asset utilization, bottleneck identification, and energy loss identification for continuous improvement and identificatin of optimal operating conditions.
