Synthesizing a System for Remote Energy Monitoring in Manufacturing

摘要

The main problems encountered in the remote monitoring of energy use in metals production and other industries are identified. Such monitoring entails long-term observation of energy parameters along with production data, in addition to vectorial representation of the criteria chosen to assess energy use. A new approach is proposed to the synthesis of a web-oriented system based on theoretical-multivariate, parametric, and structural modeling of remote energy monitoring. The structure of the system is detailed by employing a modular multipurpose hardware-software complex that includes open interfaces, the original source code, and licenses for free dissemination of the software. Results are presented from the practical use of specialized elements of the remote energy monitoring system and the synthesized structure in accordance with the above-described approach. Also, a method is proposed for evaluating the effectiveness of the monitoring systems that are created.
