Abstract
The study aims at developing a real-time data analysis system as part of a class project on energy efficiency of an industrial hydraulic system. Using a system-level experimental methodology, it aims at implementing automation for the hydraulic systems so that energy efficiency can be improved in real-time. A linear push system hydraulic prototype is developed for the study. The prototype contains hydraulic actuator, shock absorber, electronic flow control valve, and electronic sensor. This prototype is used to experiment with different operating conditions for characterization of the hydraulic system behavior. A real-time data analysis system is developed using LabVIEW and an Open Platform Communication (OPC) server in a limited scale. Using the Math Script node, the data analysis system can conduct correlation coefficient analysis among different operating parameters. At the end of a task, the system automatically generates the analysis report in a specified format.
