摘要
Nitrogen-block often happens in air separation units when working condition changes. A nitrogen-block fault forewarning method based on clustering and fuzzy comprehensive evaluation was proposed in this paper. The clustering method was first used to divide the conditions of air separation unit into several typical working conditions, and then the fuzzy evaluation models for each working condition were established. For online forewarning applications, the current condition was identified through clustering methods and the corresponding fuzzy evaluation model was then used to identify whether nitrogen-block occurs and evaluate its severity in order to forewarn of nitrogen-block fault. The verification results using nitrogen-block historical data of an air separation enterprise demonstrate that the proposed nitrogen-block forewarning method is better than traditional manual method and Principle Component Analysis, and the forewarning time can meet the practical requirement. © 2019, Editorial Board of "Journal of Chemical Engineering of Chinese Universities".
