 |
| Course contents : | This course combines contribution from three teachers. The first part analyses how to use a process model to better exploit available measurements. Taking advantage of redundancy (i.e. using more sensors than strictly necessary) allows to : - diagnose failing sensors - reduce uncertainty on measured variables - estimate key performance indicators, which cannot be measured directly |
 |
| Course objective : | The first part of the course should make the students aware of problems resulting from measurement uncertainty, and present software solution addressing the issue for steady state energy systems. |
 |
| Prerequisites : | Basic knowledge in statistics and optimisation. |
 |
| Workshops : | As an illustration of the first part of the course, students have access to a commercial data validation software. They are required to build the model of a thermal power plant. |
 |
| Organization : | Lectures : 2h/week Practice : a teaching assistant provides training in using the validation software; later free access to the system for personal applications. |
 |
| Written notes : | Copy of course supporting materials and extra documents. |
 |
| Assessment : | Evaluation based on a personal application (data validation for a power plant) documented in a written report. |
