Abstract

Pulverizers are very critical equipment in overall functioning of a plant. They need to be controlled and monitored properly for the optimized operation of the pulverizers. A system and method for performance and health monitoring to optimize operation of a pulverizer is provided. The system comprises a digital twin that can mimic the performance of the pulverizer in real-time and assist the operators in decision making related to operation, maintenance and scheduling. The digital twin is configured to receives real-time sensor data from a plurality of data sources and provides real-time soft sensing of key health and performance parameters of the pulverizer. One more key aspect of the solution is the advisory system that alerts and recommends corrective actions in terms of parameters controlled through other equipment or changes in operation or design or changes in cleaning schedule.
