Document Management Solutions

Document Management Systems (DMS) are made up of software designed to manage all types of documents, including scanned, electronic and paper.

All documents are stored in a single repository that facilitates all actions that need to take place from search and retrieval to e-mail and printing.

A Document-Management-System provides a central repository for all documents and data related to individual products: from technical specifications, to sketches, to 3D CAD models, to design drawings, to bills of materials, to office documents.
It gives users across your enterprise access to all the information they need. And it provides rich, powerful functionality for workflow, digital archiving, and knowledge management.

Jagtiani Engineering & Consulting's aim is to get an applicable DMS tool for our clients. Such a software system fulfils all standard DMS requirements, it is designed according to valid norms standards, and it satisfies our clients and their (utility-) clients and their employees.

Plant-Management-System Structure

The Plant-Management-System PMS is integrated in the clients corporate management, it links the information from the corporation business units

Power generation

Plant operation

Product sales and procurement

for the continuous generation of an accurate knowledge about the technical and economical situation of the corporation, to achieve a most efficient operation mode.

The Objective of the Plant-Management-System PMS is:

economic planning of fuel delivery and storage

economic planning for the delivery of heat and power

economic planning of major inspections and overhauls

continuous process optimization

optimal usage of contractual agreements.

The aim of such Plant-Management-System PMS is to :

reduce and optimize operating costs

increase the availability of the plant and / or their components

support the planning of maintenance (predictive maintenance).

Applications of a Plant-Management-System PMS

The PMS applications provide services for a Data validation and acquisition of measured data, Data storage and archive for data warehousing, and tools for the calculation of plant economy values.

Furthermore independent forecast simulation can be provided, such as a diagnosis support for the plant, function groups, or single components. The PMS is connected with Interfaces to other systems, and it has Remote access control via network or corporation software.

Validated data are used for controlling and monitoring the existing power plants in operation. The data validation of the measurements covers the process, checks, and evaluations with a precision higher than the precision determined by the measured values.
It therefore permits quality statements of the PMS, which are about each of the power plant components that have been evaluated.

In addition the PMS data warehouse contents the project documentation e.g. manuals, technical data, component specification, and system description for an accurate knowledge management.

Benefits of a Plant-Management-System PMS

The Plant-Management-System PMS saves operation cost due to economical optimized operation of processes (Plant Optimization), a condition based maintenance of the plant (Maintenance Management), and immediate access to characteristics, costs, and performance values (Plant Economy).

The PMS allows profit enhancement due to ...

accurate monitoring of interfaces to corporate customers (Plant Monitoring)

optimized outage and maintenance of the plant (Forecast calculation)

performance forecast calculation

off-line impact testing / outage planing

on-line sharing @ stock-markets (Energy Management)

Try the Virtual Power Plant (VPP) for a demonstration of such a Plant-Management-System PMS.

Power Plant- and Process-Monitoring

The Monitoring function of a VPP is a simulation of a power plant where a Plant-Management-System is installed for monitoring of the water-/steam process and component diagnosis.

The tool calculates the actual Plant Economy such as net efficiency or the losses due to aging of the components. The results are used to optimize the processes.

The Monitoring functions of the VPP are:

Plant & Component Diagnosis shows the actual performance of the entire cycle and the benefits or losses of each component of the process

Plant Analysis presents process data in trend-curves or tables, this data can be easily exported to other software, and can be saved in a database for data warehousing

Plant Economy is an overview of net efficiency, heat rate, auxiliary consumption and other pre-defined data.

Optimization of Power Plants and Processes

An economical operation of power plants requires a permanent knowledge of the process state with a satisfying accuracy. This is the foundation of any possible optimization.

The VPP function "Plant Optimization" is used for the variation of power plant parameters and defined "What-If" calculations. Depending on the individual requirements of the user, different optimization strategies may apply.

The calculation of Profit-/Loss is a benefit calculation of a thermal power plant with coupled district heating. The tool will do various "What-If"-calculations by varying the feedwater recirculation flow in the heating cycle during various amount of thermal District Heating. The profit is calculated by summarizing the fuel costs, power price, and heat price for each vary. The optimum of these calculations is the maximum profit.

The calculation of Electric Power Loss due to district heating is an example for an economical benefit value.

Power Plant Management-System (PMS)

Modern management systems help to reduce the costs and increase the overall efficiency of processes for an economic operation.

The Plant-Management-System PMS for all kinds of new and existing power plants is necessary for the optimization and accurate control of the power plant processes in order to achieve a most efficient power plant operation.

The PMS is used for an economic plant operation due to it's Maintenance- and Spare part Management, its Energy Management, and its Knowledge (Document- and Project-) Management.

The global deregulation of the energy markets offers the independent power producer and supplier to buy and sell their energy @ international energy-stock-markets.

An independent self-organized Energy-Management-System of power plants (as a part of the PMS) enables self handling the decision as to where and when to buy which fuel, and where and when to sell which energy.

The multi-functional Virtual Power Plant VPP

The Virtual Power Plant VPP is a multi-functional tool for the presentation of the water-/steam processes of all kind of Power Plants.

The Plant-Monitoring function in a VPP shows the effectiveness of a Plant-Management-System in a power plant.

The VPP is a model of a steam generation power plant with monitoring function for the water-/steam process and exact component diagnosis.

This system calculates the actual Plant Economy such as net efficiency or the long-term losses due to aging of the components.

The results are used for the optimization of the water-/steam process. The virtual Powerplant VPP can be tested online (in German language):
