Performance Analysis
Continuous and On-demand Analysis
The Online Analysis Service performs continuous unattended analysis at pre-configured periodic intervals. It computes performance parameters for entire machine as well as individual equipment sections and analyzes new incoming data in background mode.
Interactive Offline Analysis: An interactive utility allows on demand or offline analysis. Engineers can tweak existing models or add entirely new analysis equations and run what-if scenarios. The interactive utility works seamlessly with both Matlab™ and MathCad™ applications to provide a robust tool that can handle the most demanding calculations.
Customized Analysis Models
Performance analysis models are customized and fine tuned for individual machines being monitored. TurboWatch uses thermodynamic and statistical modeling to compute key performance indicators (KPI) such as component and overall efficiencies and fouling factors for turbomachinery as well as static equipment.
Extension libraries are provided for specialized analysis functions. Empirical equations of state (EOS) models are used for computing gas mixture properties used in computing performance of gas compressors and turbo-expanders.
