BEST-FIT AFFINITY SENSORLESS CONVERSION MEANS OR TECHNIQUE FOR PUMP DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE AND FLOW MONITORING

摘要

The present invention provides apparatus, including a hydronic sensorless pumping system, that features a signal processor or processing module configured to receive signaling containing information about motor readout values of power and speed, and also about pump and system characteristics equations together with empirical power equations that are constructed by a polynomial best-fit function together with pump affinity laws based upon a pump curve published by a pump manufacturer; and determine corresponding signaling containing information about a pump or system pressure and a flow rate at the motor readout values of power and speed, based upon the signaling received.
