EinNel’s expertise in developing Power Plant Digital Twin
Mercy Densingh – Data Science Engineer
A thermal power plant comprises a complex facility consisting of interconnected subunits, including a boiler, turbine condenser, cooling system, and electrical generator, all collaborating to generate electricity seamlessly. However, these power plants often encounter numerous challenges such as clinker issues, condenser fouling, and problems with ash handling, arising from various factors. These challenges significantly impact the overall performance of the thermal power plant, leading to increased operational costs.
The operational and informational data generated by these subunits amount to a substantial volume—approximately 5 lakh records per day—collected in real-time by data acquisition systems. This data can be very helpful in resolving the challenges. If we carefully engineer and analyze this data, we can identify the relationship between various control parameters and the root cause underlying operational issues. Yet, managing extensive datasets from power plant operations is a complex endeavor that demands profound expertise in cutting-edge AI and ML techniques.
The EinNel AI team is highly equipped to handle these sizable datasets arising from power plant operations. Our expertise extends to various data preprocessing and refined data modeling techniques. This proficiency not only uncovers the core issues but also adeptly predicts potential challenges, thus optimizing the overall performance of the power plant system. The benefits of this data-driven approach span beyond just enhanced operational efficiency and cover predictable performance, minimized downtime and expenses, optimal resource allocation, and well-informed decision-making facilitated by diverse data analytics. this data, we can identify the relationship between various control parameters and the root cause underlying operational issues.
