  • Patent number: 11753961
    Abstract: A startup control device for adjusting a startup schedule during startup of a power generation plant, the device includes: a determining unit which determines, on the basis of a predicted value of a physical quantity corresponding to the elapsed time from startup when the power generation plant has started up on the basis of a prescribed optimal startup schedule, and an observed value of the physical quantity acquired during the startup of the power generation plant, whether the observed value will exceed the predicted value. The device also includes a speed adjusting unit which, if the determining unit determines that the observed value will exceed the predicted value, issues an instruction to decelerate the speed of progress of elapsed time from the startup in the optimal startup schedule; and a startup timer which progresses the elapsed time from the startup at a speed based on the instruction.

  • Publication number: 20230126831
    Abstract: A control parameter optimization device is provided with: a plant model configured to calculate a control command value by a control device and a process quantity of a plant; a control parameter updating unit configured to update a control parameter used for calculating the control command value in the plant model, on the basis of an objective function calculated based on a calculation result of the process quantity in the plant model; and a structural model configured to calculate a clearance between a stationary member and a rotating member in the rotating machine, on the basis of the process quantity from the plant model. The control parameter updating unit is configured to search for an optimal control parameter within a range where the clearance calculated by the structural model satisfies a constraint condition.

  • Publication number: 20220316363
    Abstract: Provided is a startup control device for adjusting a startup schedule during startup of a power generation plant. This startup control device is provided with: a determining unit which, for a prescribed physical quantity that restricts the startup of the power generation plant, determines, on the basis of a predicted value of a physical quantity corresponding to the elapsed time from startup when the power generation plant has started up on the basis of a prescribed optimal startup schedule, and an observed value of the physical quantity acquired during the startup of the power generation plant, whether the observed value will exceed the predicted value; a speed adjusting unit which, if the determining unit determines that the observed value will exceed the predicted value, issues an instruction to decelerate the speed of progress of elapsed time from the startup in the optimal startup schedule; and a startup timer which progresses the elapsed time from the startup at a speed based on the instruction.

  • Publication number: 20090013278
    Abstract: A control unit revises a work order skeleton in a work order skeleton holding section and work procedure explanatory information in a work procedure explanatory information holding section based on revision information, if the revision information is held in the work order skeleton holding section or the work procedure explanatory information holding section. The control unit then makes a creation unit create revised electronic work instruction contents and send the contents to a display/voice guidance unit. The display/voice guidance unit displays an image or produces a voice guidance based on the electronic work instruction contents.
