Synthesis of Embedded Test System for Process Plants: A Proposed Architecture
نویسندگان
چکیده
An embedded test system to assess the dynamic performance of a process plant is proposed. A simple Process rate controller plant and a simple chemical plant are taken as models and the test systems are synthesized. In each system a virtual plant performing all tasks of real time plant is emulated and an analysis package to assess the performance is incorporated. The virtual plant is synthesized to provide anticipated ideal behavior and outcome of the plant. The responses obtained at selected output terminals of the real time plant and virtual plant are compared and analyzed in the analysis package of the test system. The test results assess the performance of the real time plant and suggest possible modifications to its electronic hardware and programs as to improve the dynamic performance of the real time plant.
