Development of an industrial energy efficiency and visualisation profiling Toolbox (I-CAT)

该研究项目的目标是支持原型灵活，工业能源效率和可视化分析工具（I-CAT）的开发，以优化制造操作。为了支持必要的快速开发和过程的概念验证，I-CAT将使用Teesside大学目前的工程设施进行演示和优化。这将包括现有的制造机械与Tascomp的PlantRun系统相结合，该系统已经安装在大学。对制造业的影响将是 * 提高对能源资产性能的理解和优化，从而通过改进能源管理降低成本。节约能源成本和提高能源效率：通过分析和预测，对单个组件进行准确的能源计算，可以改进设计、规划和维护操作。*能源信息KPI的显示/可视化

The goal of this research project is to support the development of a prototype flexible, Industrial energy efficiency and visualisation profiling Toolbox (I-CAT) to optimise manufacturing operations. In order to support the rapid development necessary, and proof of concept for the process, I-CAT will be demonstrated and optimised using Teesside University's current engineering facilities. This will include existing manufacturing machinery combined with Tascomp's PlantRun system which is already installed at the University. The impact to the manufacturing sector will be* Improved understanding and optimisation of energy asset performance, and thus enable cost reductions through improved energy management.* Energy cost savings and energy efficiency: Accurate energy calculations for individual components will enable improvements to design, planning & maintenance operations through analytics and forecasting.* Display / visualisation of energy informatics KPIs
