Why choose this project topic?
The topic makes detecting a fictional bypass using mass and energy residuals a specific process-engineering problem rather than an open-ended plant description. Evaluating fault detection, false alarms and diagnosis delay provides a clear route from assumptions and measurements to plots, calculations and a critical interpretation of the result.
How do the selected process assumptions or operating conditions affect fault detection, false alarms and diagnosis delay when detecting a fictional bypass using mass and energy residuals?
Choose a permitted dataset, fictional process case or approved teaching experiment and agree the operating range for detecting a fictional bypass using mass and energy residuals with your supervisor.
Proposed project objectives
- 01Define the process boundaries, material data and assumptions required for detecting a fictional bypass using mass and energy residuals.
- 02Generate synthetic normal and faulty process data, compare residual thresholds and test sensor bias and changing throughput.
- 03Compare fault detection, false alarms and diagnosis delay and explain uncertainty, validity limits and practical constraints.
A suggested research approach
Generate synthetic normal and faulty process data, compare residual thresholds and test sensor bias and changing throughput. Confirm data provenance and obtain approval for any materials and laboratory procedure. Check units and mass or energy consistency, retain failed or inconsistent observations, and compare fault detection, false alarms and diagnosis delay against a documented reference before interpreting the process implications.
What you will need
- Fictional flow network
- Synthetic sensor data
- Residual analysis tools
Keep your project scope clear
A modelled residual does not identify a real plant fault without independent verification.
