  • Publication number: 20240375911
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for controlling a hydraulic elevator system involves setting a baseline slowdown distance based on initial tuning, establishing a target leveling time in 0.1-second intervals, monitoring elevator operations to capture high speed, transition distance, leveling speed, leveling distance data, and adjusting the reference slowdown distance to align actual leveling times with the target time. A logarithmic averaging method is employed to calculate the reference slowdown distance, ensuring consistent elevator performance by smoothing out data variations.

    Abstract: There is provided a method of estimating flowrate in a pipeline based on acoustic behaviour of the pipe. First acoustic data is measured from the pipeline. A flowrate of the fluid in the pipeline is then estimated. The estimation is based on the first acoustic data and based on a correlation established between second acoustic data and corresponding flowrate data from an experimental pipeline. The correlation is established by a machine learning process (which may include the use of an artificial neural network, such as an autoencoder). The second acoustic data and corresponding flowrate data are used as inputs to the machine learning process.
