Aspen RTO Watch™

RTO performance monitoring and diagnosis

Aspen RTO Watch is a layered product for Aspen OnLine™ that provides full historization and visualization of all optimizer–related data. This allows support engineers⎯using accumulated history⎯to identify trends, problems, and potential areas for improvement. Aspen Watch also provides a range of performance monitoring and diagnostic features. Aspen RTO Watch is a core element of AspenTech’s aspenONE™ Advanced Process Control applications.

Features

  • Browse real–time or historical data
  • Provide reports of application’s operating and performance measures
    • RTO Status Report: Includes service factor, efficiency, steady-state time, RTO on/off, ET on/off, etc.
    • Measurement Report: Captures all measurements with problems
    • Active Constraint Report: Lists all active constraints in each case, including constraint type, active limit, and shadow price
    • Optimization Variable Report: Sorts by percentage of optimization variable not being met
    • PAR Case Report: Minimum, maximum, average, standard deviation, rate of change, and the frequency in active constraint
    • OPT Case Report: Statistics of OPT case variables; track performance among OPT result, ET, LP target and measurements
    • Operation Change Report: Minimum, maximum, and frequency of limit changes for each optimized variable
    • Event History Report: Chronologically lists all changes or events
    • Objective Function Report: Minimum, maximum, average, and integration of objective functions

Benefits

  • Provides rapid identification of degrading RTO performance
  • Enables diagnosis of performance issues
