P12453: Compressor Health Monitoring System

Home
Our Project Summary
|
Project Information
|
- The scope of this project includes designing
and implementing fully functional
instrumentation on RIT's Dresser Rand ESH-1
compressor. These instruments will
measure dozens of parameters that will, in-turn,
provide the operator with a
pressure vs. volume analysis, the capability to
obtain a thermodynamic efficiency of
the system, and perform heat transfer analysis at
several points within the system.
- Along with the instrumentation, a health
monitoring system designed and donated
by Dresser-Rand, called Envision, will be
installed and operational. Envision's
primary function will be to use data trends from
the previously mentioned
instrumentation to show signs of system
degradation and potential catastrophic
failures within the system.
