In this paper, we explore the issue of operating optimality assessment for complex industrial processes based on performance-similarity considering nonlinearities and outliers simultaneously, and a general enforced online performance assessment framework is proposed. In the offline part, a new and modified total robust kernel projection to latent structures algorithm,T-KPRM, is proposed and used to evaluate the complex nonlinear industrial process, which can effectively extract the optimal-index-related process variation information from process data and establish assessment models for each performance grades overcoming the effects of outlier. In the online part, the online assessment results can be obtained by calculating the similarity between the online data from a sliding window and each of the performance grades. Furthermore, in order to improve the accuracy of online assessment, we propose an online assessment strategy taking account of the effects of noise and process uncertainties. The Euclidean distance between the sliding data window and the optimal evaluation level is employed to measure the contribution rates of variables, which indicate the possible reason for the non-optimal operating performance. The proposed framework is tested on a real industrial case: dense medium coal preparation process, and the results shows the efficiency of the proposed method comparing to the existing method.展开更多

The weights obtained in PRM, which gives protection against noise and outliers, were incorporated into the potential measure of the subtractive cluster algorithm to enhance the robustness of the fuzzy rule cluster process, and a compact Mamdani-type fuzzy system was established after the parameters in the consequent parts of rules were re-estimated by partial least squares(PLS). The main characteristics of the new approach were its simplicity and ability to construct fuzzy system fast and robustly. Simulation and experiment results show that the proposed approach can achieve satisfactory results in various kinds of data domains with noise and outliers. Compared with D-SVD and ARRBFN, the proposed approach yields much fewer rules and less RMSE values.展开更多

The model allows the users to predict the compressor performance, e.g. pressure ratio, efficiency and losses using the compressor geometric information and speed by a stage stacking calculation based on the characteristics of each stage. To develop the compressor elemental stage charac- teristics, the compressor losses, such as incidence losses and friction losses, are mathematically modeled. For a composite sys- tems, for instance a gas turbine power plant, the performance of the multistage centrifugal compressor can be evaluated. Since some important parameters of the compressor model, e.g., the slip factor or, shock loss coefficient （and reference diameter DI, are hard to be determined by empirical laws, a genetic algorithm （GA） is used to solve the parameter estimation problem of the proposed model, and in turn the compressor performance analysis and parameters study are performed. The surge line for the multistage centrifugal compressor can also be determined from the simulation results. Furthermore, the model presented here provides a valuable tool for evaluating the multistage centrifugal compressor performance as a function of various operation parameters.展开更多

This paper applies an improved fast model migration method(FMM method) to develop the model of the new centrifugal compressor. The method adapts a Gaussian Process(GP) model from an old centrifugal compressor to fit a new and similar centrifugal compressor, and the adaptation is conducted by a scale-bias adjustment migration technology. In order to obtain the better estimated parameters of migration, Bayesian method, which takes the prior knowledge into consideration, is used in the sequential experiment. The approach is validated by a specific simulation bench. The results indicate that the applied approach can achieve a better prediction precision with fewer data of the new centrifugal compressor compared to pure GP method, and can model the new centrifugal compressor rapidly.展开更多
