Motivation

Oscillations are common in many processes,

whose effects propagate to many units and thus may impact the overall process performance.

For reasons of Safety and Profitability, it is

important to detect and diagnose the plant- wide oscillation.

pv-op plot

  • 1. This plot shows a pattern of valve stiction.
  • 2. Simple closed-loop plant test had confirmed that

the valve really has stiction problem.

  • 3. Further plant test and maintenance has been

scheduled during the next plant shutdown.

Conclusion

Spectral Envelop (SE) method has been

successfully applied to industrial data to identify the oscillation frequencies and categorize the variables that have the same

  • scillations.

Scaling plot and power plot provide useful

information on the root-cause of oscillations.
