 本発明は、対象設備の運転に関するプロセスデータを表示する表示装置、情報処理装置、情報処理方法及びプログラムに関する。 The present invention relates to a display device, an information processing device, an information processing method, and a program for displaying process data relating to the operation of target equipment.
 従来、プラント等の対象設備にセンサを設置して、センサの測定値であるプロセスデータを取得することにより、対象設備の運転状況を監視することが行われている。例えば、特許文献1には、プラント内に配置される機器から収集したデータに基づいて、所定期間ごとに各数値範囲に属するデータの割合を表す割合データを生成し、当該割合データに含まれるデータの割合に対応付けられた色を用いたヒートマップを表示するヒートマップ表示装置が記載されている。 Conventionally, the operating status of target equipment is monitored by installing sensors on the target equipment such as plants and acquiring process data, which is the measured values of the sensors.

 対象設備の運転状況の適切な監視のために、例えば全てのプロセスデータを纏めて表示装置に表示させることが考えられる。しかしながら、対象設備に設置されるセンサの数が多くなるほど、各センサから得られる測定値であるプロセスデータの数も増えるため、これらを確認する労力は増加し得るし、表示態様如何によっては運転状況の監視の効率性が減少し得る。この点、プラント等の対象設備は複数の系統によって構成されることが多いが、同一の系統に属するプロセスデータ同士の関連性は、異なる系統に属するプロセスデータ同士の関連性よりも強い場合が多い。そのため、複数のプロセスデータを系統毎に把握することにより、対象設備の運転状況の監視の効率が向上し得ると言える。 In order to appropriately monitor the operating status of the target equipment, for example, it is conceivable to collectively display all process data on a display device. However, as the number of sensors installed in the target facility increases, the number of process data, which are measured values obtained from each sensor, also increases. monitoring efficiency can be reduced. In this regard, target facilities such as plants are often composed of multiple systems, and the relationship between process data belonging to the same system is often stronger than the relationship between process data belonging to different systems. . Therefore, it can be said that the efficiency of monitoring the operation status of the target equipment can be improved by grasping a plurality of process data for each system.
 そこで、本発明は、系統に関連付けられた態様でプロセスデータを確認することにより対象設備の運転状況を効率的に監視することを可能とする表示装置、制御装置、制御方法及びプログラムを提供することを目的とする。 Therefore, the present invention provides a display device, a control device, a control method, and a program that enable efficient monitoring of the operating status of target equipment by checking process data in a manner associated with a system.

Therefore, the operator can grasp a plurality of process data for each system, thereby efficiently monitoring the operation status of the target facility.

 図1は、本実施形態に係るプラントの全体構成を示す概略図である。まず、図1を用いて、本実施形態が対象とする対象設備の一列であるプラント1の構成について説明する。プラント1は、例えば、循環流動層ボイラ(Circulating Fluidized Bed型)を含む発電プラント(焼却プラント)であって、高温で流動する珪砂等の循環材を循環させながら燃料を燃焼して、蒸気を発生させるボイラを備えるものである。プラント1の燃料としては、石炭のような化石燃料の他、例えば非化石燃料(木質バイオマス、廃タイヤ、廃プラスチック、スラッジ等)を使用することができる。プラント1で発生した蒸気は、タービン100の駆動に用いられる。なお、本実施形態が対象とするプラントは、ボイラを含む発電プラントや焼却プラントに限られるものではなく、化学プラント、排水処理プラント等、プロセスデータが取得できるプラントであればよい。 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing the overall configuration of the plant according to this embodiment. First, using FIG. 1, the configuration of a plant 1, which is a series of target facilities targeted by the present embodiment, will be described. The plant 1 is, for example, a power plant (combustion plant) including a circulating fluidized bed boiler (circulating fluidized bed type), which burns fuel while circulating a circulating material such as silica sand that flows at high temperature to generate steam. It is equipped with a boiler that allows As the fuel for the plant 1, in addition to fossil fuels such as coal, for example, non-fossil fuels (woody biomass, waste tires, waste plastics, sludge, etc.) can be used. Steam generated in plant 1 is used to drive turbine 100 . Plants targeted by the present embodiment are not limited to power plants including boilers and incineration plants, and may be plants such as chemical plants and wastewater treatment plants from which process data can be acquired.
 プラント1は、火炉2内で燃料を燃焼させ、固気分離装置として機能するサイクロン3によって排ガスから循環材を分離し、分離された循環材を火炉2内に戻して循環させるように構成されている。分離された循環材は、サイクロン3の下方に接続された循環材回収管4を経由して火炉2の下部に返送される。なお、循環材回収管4の下部と火炉2の下部とは、流路が絞られたループシール部4aを介して接続されている。これにより、循環材回収管4の下部には所定量の循環材が貯められた状態となる。サイクロン3によって循環材が取り除かれた排ガスは、排ガス流路3aを経由して後部煙道5に供給される。 The plant 1 is configured to burn fuel in a furnace 2, separate a circulating material from exhaust gas by a cyclone 3 functioning as a solid-gas separator, and return the separated circulating material to the furnace 2 for circulation. there is The separated circulating material is returned to the lower part of the furnace 2 via a circulating material recovery pipe 4 connected below the cyclone 3 . The lower portion of the circulating material recovery pipe 4 and the lower portion of the furnace 2 are connected via a loop seal portion 4a having a narrowed flow path. As a result, a predetermined amount of circulating material is stored in the lower portion of the circulating material recovery pipe 4 . The exhaust gas from which the circulating material has been removed by the cyclone 3 is supplied to the rear flue 5 via the exhaust gas passage 3a.
 ボイラは、燃料を燃焼させるための火炉2と、燃焼により得られた熱を用いて水蒸気等を発生させるための熱交換器を備える。火炉2の中間部には、燃料を供給する燃料供給口2aが設けられており、火炉2の上部には、燃焼ガスを排出するガス出口2bが設けられている。図示されていない燃料供給装置から火炉2に供給される燃料は、燃料供給口2aを介して火炉2の内部に供給される。また、火炉2の炉壁には、ボイラ給水を加熱するための炉壁管6が設けられている。炉壁管6を流れるボイラ給水は、火炉2での燃焼によって加熱される。 The boiler is equipped with a furnace 2 for burning fuel and a heat exchanger for generating steam using the heat obtained by combustion. A fuel supply port 2a for supplying fuel is provided in the middle part of the furnace 2, and a gas outlet 2b for discharging combustion gas is provided in the upper part of the furnace 2. As shown in FIG. Fuel supplied to the furnace 2 from a fuel supply device (not shown) is supplied to the interior of the furnace 2 through a fuel supply port 2a. Furnace wall tubes 6 for heating boiler feed water are provided on the furnace wall of the furnace 2 . Boiler feedwater flowing through the furnace wall tube 6 is heated by combustion in the furnace 2 .
 火炉2内では、下部の給気ライン2cから導入される燃焼・流動用の空気により、燃料供給口2aから供給された燃料を含む固形物が流動し、燃料は流動しながら例えば約800~900℃で燃焼する。サイクロン3には、火炉2で発生した燃焼ガスが循環材を同伴しながら導入される。サイクロン3は、遠心分離作用により循環材と気体とを分離し、循環材回収管4を介して分離された循環材を火炉2に戻すとともに、循環材が除かれた燃焼ガスを排ガス流路3aから後部煙道5へと送出する。 In the furnace 2, solid matter containing fuel supplied from the fuel supply port 2a is fluidized by combustion/fluidizing air introduced from the lower air supply line 2c, and the fuel is fluidized at about 800 to 900, for example. ℃. Combustion gas generated in the furnace 2 is introduced into the cyclone 3 while entraining the circulating material. The cyclone 3 separates the circulating material from the gas by centrifugal separation, returns the separated circulating material to the furnace 2 through the circulating material recovery pipe 4, and transfers the combustion gas from which the circulating material has been removed to the exhaust gas flow path 3a. to the rear flue 5.
 火炉2では、底部に炉内ベッド材と呼ばれる循環材の一部が滞留する。このベッド材には、循環流動に不適な粗い粒径を有するベッド材や排燃夾雑物が含まれることがあり、これらの循環材として不適なベッド材によって流動不良が発生することがある。そのため、流動不良を抑制するために、火炉2では、底部の排出口2dから炉内ベッド材が連続的又は断続的に外部に排出されている。排出されたベッド材は、図示されていない循環ライン上で金属や粗大粒径等の不適物を取り除いた後、再び火炉2に供給されるか、若しくはそのまま廃棄される。火炉2の循環材は、火炉2、サイクロン3及び循環材回収管4で構成される循環系内を循環する。 In the furnace 2, part of the circulating material called furnace bed material stays at the bottom. This bed material may contain bed material having a coarse particle size that is unsuitable for circulation and contaminants from exhaust combustion. Therefore, in the furnace 2, the in-furnace bed material is continuously or intermittently discharged to the outside from the discharge port 2d at the bottom in order to suppress poor flow. The discharged bed material is supplied to the furnace 2 again or discarded as it is after removing unsuitable materials such as metals and coarse grains on a circulation line (not shown). The circulating material in the furnace 2 circulates in a circulating system composed of the furnace 2 , the cyclone 3 and the circulating material recovery pipe 4 .
 後部煙道5は、サイクロン3から排出されたガスを後段へ流す流路を有している。後部煙道5は、排ガスの熱を回収する排熱回収部として、過熱蒸気を発生させる過熱器10と、ボイラ給水を予熱する節炭器12と、を有している。後部煙道5を流れる排ガスは、過熱器10及び節炭器12を流通する蒸気やボイラ給水と熱交換されて冷却される。また、節炭器12を通過したボイラ給水が貯留される蒸気ドラム8を有し、蒸気ドラム8は炉壁管6にも接続されている。 The rear flue 5 has a flow path through which the gas discharged from the cyclone 3 flows to the rear stage. The rear flue 5 has a superheater 10 for generating superheated steam and an economizer 12 for preheating boiler feed water as an exhaust heat recovery section for recovering the heat of the exhaust gas. The exhaust gas flowing through the rear flue 5 is cooled by heat exchange with steam and boiler feed water flowing through the superheater 10 and economizer 12 . It also has a steam drum 8 in which the boiler feedwater that has passed through the economizer 12 is stored, and the steam drum 8 is also connected to the furnace wall pipe 6 .
 節炭器12は、排ガスの熱をボイラ給水に伝熱して、ボイラ給水を予熱するものである。節炭器12は、管21によってポンプ7と接続される一方、管22によって蒸気ドラム8と接続されている。ポンプ7から管21を経由して節炭器12に供給され、節炭器12によって予熱されたボイラ給水は、管22を経由して蒸気ドラム8に供給される。 The economizer 12 transfers the heat of the exhaust gas to the boiler feed water to preheat the boiler feed water. Economizer 12 is connected to pump 7 by pipe 21 and to steam drum 8 by pipe 22 . Boiler feed water supplied from pump 7 via pipe 21 to economizer 12 and preheated by economizer 12 is fed via pipe 22 to steam drum 8 .
 蒸気ドラム8には、降水管8a及び炉壁管6が接続されている。蒸気ドラム8内のボイラ給水は、降水管8aを下降し、火炉2の下部側で炉壁管6に導入されて蒸気ドラム8へ向かって流通する。炉壁管6内のボイラ給水は、火炉2内で発生する燃焼熱によって加熱されて、蒸気ドラム8内で蒸発し蒸気となる。 A downcomer pipe 8 a and a furnace wall pipe 6 are connected to the steam drum 8 . Boiler feed water in the steam drum 8 descends down the downcomer pipe 8a, is introduced into the furnace wall pipe 6 on the lower side of the furnace 2, and flows toward the steam drum 8. The boiler water supply in the furnace wall tube 6 is heated by the combustion heat generated in the furnace 2 and evaporated in the steam drum 8 to become steam.
 蒸気ドラム8には、内部の蒸気を排出する飽和蒸気管8bが接続されている。飽和蒸気管8bは、蒸気ドラム8と過熱器10とを接続している。蒸気ドラム8内の蒸気は、飽和蒸気管8bを経由して過熱器10に供給される。過熱器10は、排ガスの熱を用いて蒸気を過熱して過熱蒸気を生成するものである。過熱蒸気は、管10aを通り、プラント1外のタービン100に供給されて発電に利用される。 A saturated steam pipe 8b is connected to the steam drum 8 for discharging the steam inside. The saturated steam pipe 8 b connects the steam drum 8 and the superheater 10 . The steam in the steam drum 8 is supplied to the superheater 10 via the saturated steam pipe 8b. The superheater 10 uses the heat of the exhaust gas to superheat steam to generate superheated steam. The superheated steam passes through the pipe 10a, is supplied to the turbine 100 outside the plant 1, and is used for power generation.
 タービン100から排出された蒸気の圧力と温度は、過熱器10から排出される蒸気の圧力と温度よりも低い。特に限定されるものではないが、タービン100へ供給される蒸気の圧力は、約10~17MPa程度であり、温度は約530~570℃程度となる。タービン100から排出される蒸気の圧力は、約3~5MPa程度であり、温度は約350~400℃程度となる。 The pressure and temperature of the steam discharged from the turbine 100 are lower than the pressure and temperature of the steam discharged from the superheater 10. Although not particularly limited, the pressure of the steam supplied to the turbine 100 is about 10-17 MPa, and the temperature is about 530-570.degree. The pressure of the steam discharged from the turbine 100 is about 3-5 MPa, and the temperature is about 350-400.degree.
 タービン100の下流には復水器102が設けられている。タービン100から排出された蒸気は復水器102に供給され、復水器102において凝縮して飽和水に戻された上でポンプ7へと供給される。タービン100には、タービン100の回転により得られる運動エネルギーを電気エネルギーに変換するジェネレータが接続される。 A condenser 102 is provided downstream of the turbine 100 . Steam discharged from the turbine 100 is supplied to the condenser 102 , condensed in the condenser 102 and returned to saturated water, and then supplied to the pump 7 . Turbine 100 is connected to a generator that converts kinetic energy obtained by rotation of turbine 100 into electrical energy.
 ポンプ7aは、復水器102の水位を一定に保つように、補給水を供給する。図1では、ポンプ7aにより補給される補給水流量u1(「プロセスデータ」に含まれる測定値の一例)を示している。 The pump 7a supplies make-up water so as to keep the water level of the condenser 102 constant. FIG. 1 shows the make-up water flow rate u1 (an example of the measured value included in the “process data”) supplied by the pump 7a.
 本実施形態に係るプロセスデータは、プラント1の運転に関するデータであり、運転データとも称され得る。プロセスデータは、例えば、プラント1内の所定の箇所に設置されたセンサにより出力されるデータであってよく、より具体的には、プラント1の温度、圧力及び流量等の測定値を少なくとも1つ含んでよい。プラント1は、少なくとも1つの系統を含んで構成される。ここで、系統とは、対象設備における所定の箇所を指し、具体的には火炉(より具体的には、火炉の下部、火炉の中央部、火炉の上部等)、排出口、サイクロン、循環材回収管、排ガス流路、加熱器、後部煙道等を含んでもよい。系統は、対象設備の設計に応じて任意に設定されてもよい。各プロセスデータは、例えば、当該プロセスデータを出力するセンサの設置位置や検知対象に応じて、プラント1を構成する上記系統のいずれかに属する。また、同一の系統に属する複数のプロセスデータのそれぞれは、各系統の設計に応じて規定される系統内の特定の順序に対応する。なお、「系統内の(特定の)順序」とは、系統において設定された「上流から下流」の順序だけでなく、系統において設定された「下流から上流」の順序や、他の任意の方向における順序を含む。 The process data according to the present embodiment is data relating to the operation of the plant 1, and can also be referred to as operation data. The process data may be, for example, data output by a sensor installed at a predetermined location in the plant 1. More specifically, at least one measured value such as the temperature, pressure and flow rate of the plant 1 may contain. The plant 1 includes at least one system. Here, the system refers to a predetermined part in the target facility, specifically the furnace (more specifically, the lower part of the furnace, the central part of the furnace, the upper part of the furnace, etc.), the outlet, the cyclone, the circulating material It may also include collection tubes, flue gas channels, heaters, back flues, and the like. The system may be arbitrarily set according to the design of the target facility. Each process data belongs to one of the systems constituting the plant 1 according to, for example, the installation position of the sensor that outputs the process data and the detection target. Moreover, each of the plurality of process data belonging to the same system corresponds to a specific order within the system defined according to the design of each system. The "(specific) order within the system" means not only the order of "upstream to downstream" set in the system, but also the order of "downstream to upstream" set in the system, or any other direction. including the order in
 図1では、ポンプ7から節炭器12に供給されるボイラ給水流量u2(「プロセスデータ」に含まれる測定値の一例)を示している。さらに、図1では、過熱器10からタービン100に供給されるボイラ出口蒸気流量u3(「プロセスデータ」に含まれる測定値の一例)を示し、蒸気ドラム8から過熱器10に供給される飽和蒸気流量u4(「プロセスデータ」に含まれる測定値の一例)を示している。なお、補給水流量u1は、飽和蒸気流量u4に追従するように制御されてよい。また、ボイラ出口蒸気流量u3(又は過熱蒸気流量)と、蒸気ドラム8の液面レベルの双方を監視しながら、ボイラ給水流量u2を調整に追従するように制御されてよい。 FIG. 1 shows the boiler feed water flow rate u2 supplied from the pump 7 to the economizer 12 (an example of the measured value included in the "process data"). Furthermore, FIG. 1 shows a boiler outlet steam flow rate u3 (an example of a measured value included in “process data”) supplied from the superheater 10 to the turbine 100, and saturated steam supplied from the steam drum 8 to the superheater 10 Flow rate u4 (an example of a measured value included in "process data") is shown. The make-up water flow rate u1 may be controlled so as to follow the saturated steam flow rate u4. Further, while monitoring both the boiler outlet steam flow rate u3 (or superheated steam flow rate) and the liquid level of the steam drum 8, the boiler feed water flow rate u2 may be controlled to follow the adjustment.
 プラント1を構成する管等に破孔が生じた場合、補給水流量u1が上昇したり、ボイラ給水流量u2とボイラ出口蒸気流量u3の流量差が増大したりする。DCS(Distributed Control System)20は、補給水流量u1、ボイラ給水流量u2、ボイラ出口蒸気流量u3及び飽和蒸気流量u4等のプラント1のプロセスデータをプラント1から受信し、プラント1を構成するボイラおよびタービン100の稼働率を含む稼働状況を把握し、プラント1に異常が生じていないか監視する。 When a hole is formed in a pipe or the like that constitutes the plant 1, the make-up water flow rate u1 increases, or the flow rate difference between the boiler feed water flow rate u2 and the boiler outlet steam flow rate u3 increases. DCS (Distributed Control System) 20 receives process data of plant 1 such as makeup water flow rate u1, boiler feed water flow rate u2, boiler outlet steam flow rate u3, saturated steam flow rate u4, etc. The operation status including the operation rate of the turbine 100 is grasped, and the plant 1 is monitored for any abnormality.
 なお、プロセスデータとして補給水流量u1、ボイラ給水流量u2、ボイラ出口蒸気流量u3及び飽和蒸気流量u4を例示したが、プラント1に関するプロセスデータは、他のデータであってもよい。プラント1に関するプロセスデータは、温度、圧力等の他のデータ、または、複数のプロセスデータに基づいて算出されたデータであってもよいし、センサ等から取得された計算処理されていないデータであってもよい。 Although the make-up water flow rate u1, the boiler feed water flow rate u2, the boiler outlet steam flow rate u3, and the saturated steam flow rate u4 have been exemplified as process data, the process data relating to the plant 1 may be other data. The process data relating to the plant 1 may be other data such as temperature and pressure, data calculated based on a plurality of process data, or uncalculated data obtained from sensors or the like. may
 次に、図2及び図3を用いて、本実施形態に係るシステム30について説明する。図2は、本実施形態に係るシステム30の機能ブロックを示す図である。図3は、本実施形態に係るシステム30の物理的構成を示す図である。 Next, the system 30 according to this embodiment will be described using FIGS. 2 and 3. FIG. FIG. 2 is a diagram showing functional blocks of the system 30 according to this embodiment. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the physical configuration of the system 30 according to this embodiment.
 DCS20は、プラント1を制御するための分散制御システムであり、図2に示されるように、プラント1に設けられるセンサ等からプロセスデータを取得し、これに基づいてプラント1を制御するための制御信号をプラント1に供給する。 The DCS 20 is a distributed control system for controlling the plant 1, and as shown in FIG. A signal is fed to plant 1 .
 システム30は、制御部31、表示装置32、及び記憶部33、を備えている。制御部31は、例えば、プロセスデータ取得部311と、オブジェクトデータ生成部312と、表示制御部313と、操作受付部314とを備える。 The system 30 includes a control unit 31, a display device 32, and a storage unit 33. The control unit 31 includes, for example, a process data acquisition unit 311, an object data generation unit 312, a display control unit 313, and an operation reception unit 314.
 プロセスデータ取得部311は、DCS20からプロセスデータを取得する。プロセスデータは、例えば、プラント1に設置されたセンサにより出力された少なくとも1つの測定値と、当該少なくとも1つの測定値が得られた時刻情報とを含んでもよい。プロセスデータ取得部311は、例えば、プラント1の運転中にDCS20からプロセスデータを順次に取得し、取得したプロセスデータを記憶部33に格納する。 The process data acquisition unit 311 acquires process data from the DCS 20. The process data may include, for example, at least one measured value output by a sensor installed in the plant 1 and time information when the at least one measured value was obtained. The process data acquisition unit 311 , for example, sequentially acquires process data from the DCS 20 during operation of the plant 1 and stores the acquired process data in the storage unit 33 .
 オブジェクトデータ生成部312は、プロセスデータ取得部311により取得された各プロセスデータに基づいて、各プロセスデータに対応するオブジェクトの表示内容/表示態様を規定するオブジェクトデータを生成する。後述するように、表示制御部313によって、当該オブジェクトデータに基づくオブジェクトが表示装置32に表示される。オブジェクトの表示内容/表示態様は、対応するプロセスデータに基づいているため、操作者はオブジェクトを視認することにより、当該オブジェクトに対応するプロセスデータの値や傾向等を把握することが可能となる。オブジェクトの表示内容/表示態様については更に後述する。 Based on each process data acquired by the process data acquisition unit 311, the object data generation unit 312 generates object data that defines the display content/display mode of the object corresponding to each process data. As will be described later, the object based on the object data is displayed on the display device 32 by the display control unit 313 . Since the display content/display mode of the object is based on the corresponding process data, the operator can grasp the value, tendency, etc. of the process data corresponding to the object by visually recognizing the object. The display content/display mode of the object will be further described later.
 表示制御部313は、オブジェクトデータ生成部312により生成された各オブジェクトデータに基づいて、表示装置32に各オブジェクトを表示させる。このとき、表示制御部313は、各オブジェクトを、対応するプロセスデータが属するプラント1の系統毎にグループ化して、表示装置32に表示させる。ここで、「系統毎にグループ化し」とは、系統の具体的な箇所を一つの単位として、まとまりある集合とすることを含んでもよい。オブジェクトの配置については更に後述する。 The display control unit 313 causes the display device 32 to display each object based on each object data generated by the object data generation unit 312 . At this time, the display control unit 313 groups each object for each system of the plant 1 to which the corresponding process data belongs, and causes the display device 32 to display them. Here, "grouping for each system" may include forming a cohesive set with a specific part of the system as one unit. Arrangement of objects will be described further below.
 操作受付部314は、受付部の一例であり、操作者による入力部30eを介した任意の操作を受け付ける。操作受付部314は、例えば、表示装置32に表示された複数のオブジェクトのうちの少なくともいずれかのオブジェクトの選択を受け付けてもよい。このとき、表示制御部313は、選択が受け付けられたオブジェクトに対応するプロセスデータの時系列グラフを、表示装置32に表示させてもよい。また、表示制御部313は、選択が受け付けられたオブジェクトに対応するプロセスデータの時系列グラフの表示装置32における表示及び非表示を切り替えてもよい。 The operation accepting unit 314 is an example of an accepting unit, and accepts any operation by the operator via the input unit 30e. The operation accepting unit 314 may accept selection of at least one of the plurality of objects displayed on the display device 32, for example. At this time, the display control unit 313 may cause the display device 32 to display the time-series graph of the process data corresponding to the object whose selection has been accepted. In addition, the display control unit 313 may switch display and non-display on the display device 32 of the time-series graph of the process data corresponding to the object whose selection has been accepted.
 表示装置32は、例えば後述する表示部30fにより構成され、表示制御部313によって供給される表示データに基づいて、プラント1の運転に関する情報を含む各種の表示画面を表示する。表示装置32が表示する各種の表示画面については後述する。 The display device 32 is composed of, for example, a display section 30f to be described later, and displays various display screens including information on the operation of the plant 1 based on display data supplied by the display control section 313. Various display screens displayed by the display device 32 will be described later.
 記憶部33は、各種の情報を記憶する。記憶部33は、例えば、プロセスデータ取得部311により取得されたプロセスデータを記憶してもよい。また、記憶部33は、オブジェクトデータ生成部312が生成したオブジェクトデータを記憶してもよい。また、記憶部33は、後述するプロセスデータに対応するオブジェクトの表示内容及び/又は表示態様に関する設定や、プロセスデータの時系列グラフの表示に関する設定を記憶してもよい。 The storage unit 33 stores various information. The storage unit 33 may store process data acquired by the process data acquisition unit 311, for example.

 次に、図4を用いて、本実施形態に係るシステム30のプロセスデータの取得及びオブジェクトデータの生成に関する動作処理について説明する。当該動作処理では、プラント1のプロセスデータが取得された上で、当該プロセスデータに基づいて、当該プロセスデータに対応するオブジェクトの表示態様/表示態様を規定するオブジェクトデータが生成される。なお、以下に示すステップの内容や順序は一例であって、当該動作処理がこれに限られるものではない。 Next, with reference to FIG. 4, operation processing related to acquisition of process data and generation of object data of the system 30 according to the present embodiment will be described. In the operation processing, the process data of the plant 1 is acquired, and object data defining the display mode/display mode of the object corresponding to the process data is generated based on the process data. Note that the contents and order of the steps shown below are examples, and the operation process is not limited to this.
(S11)まず、プロセスデータ取得部311は、DCS20からプラント1のプロセスデータを取得する。プロセスデータは、例えば、プラント1に設置されたセンサにより出力された少なくとも1つの測定値と、当該少なくとも1つの測定値が得られた時刻情報とを含んでもよい。プロセスデータ取得部311がプロセスデータを取得するタイミングは特に限定されず、プラント1に設置されたセンサ毎に任意のタイミングであってよい。プロセスデータ取得部311は、DCS20から取得したプロセスデータを記憶部33に記憶させる。 (S11) First, the process data acquisition unit 311 acquires the process data of the plant 1 from the DCS20. The process data may include, for example, at least one measured value output by a sensor installed in the plant 1 and time information when the at least one measured value was obtained. The timing at which the process data acquisition unit 311 acquires process data is not particularly limited, and may be arbitrary timing for each sensor installed in the plant 1 . The process data acquisition unit 311 causes the storage unit 33 to store the process data acquired from the DCS 20 .
(S12)次に、オブジェクトデータ生成部312は、取得されたプロセスデータに基づいて、オブジェクトデータを生成し、生成したオブジェクトデータを記憶部33に記憶させる。 (S12) Next, the object data generation unit 312 generates object data based on the acquired process data, and stores the generated object data in the storage unit 33. FIG.
 オブジェクトは、例えば、対応するプロセスデータの値を示す情報を含んでもよく、具体的にはプロセスデータの値を示すテキストを含んでもよい。また、オブジェクトは、例えば、対応するプロセスデータの値の増減傾向を示す情報を含んでもよい。オブジェクトデータ生成部312は、例えば、直近の所定期間内に同一のセンサから得られるプロセスデータに基づいて、当該プロセスデータの増減の傾向を算出し、当該増減の傾向を示す情報をオブジェクトデータに含めてもよい。増減の傾向を示す情報としては、例えば、「増加」、「減少」、及び「維持」等のテキストでもよいし、増減に応じた方向を向く矢印等であってもよい。また、オブジェクトは、所定の判定部が出力したプロセスデータの値に対する判定結果(正常、異常、注意等)を示す情報を含んでもよい。 The object may include, for example, information indicating the value of the corresponding process data, and more specifically, may include text indicating the value of the process data. The object may also include, for example, information indicating an increase/decrease trend of the value of the corresponding process data. The object data generation unit 312 calculates, for example, the trend of increase or decrease in the process data based on the process data obtained from the same sensor within the most recent predetermined period, and includes information indicating the trend of increase or decrease in the object data. may The information indicating the trend of increase/decrease may be, for example, text such as "Increase", "Decrease", and "Maintain", or an arrow pointing in the direction corresponding to the increase/decrease. The object may also include information indicating the judgment result (normal, abnormal, caution, etc.) for the value of the process data output by the predetermined judging unit.
 オブジェクトの表示態様は、例えば、対応するプロセスデータの値と対応するプロセスデータに対して設定された基準値との比較に応じて規定されてもよい。基準値は、プロセスデータの種類(すなわち、センサの種類や設置位置)等に応じて、任意に設定されてもよく、例えば、当該プロセスデータについて所望される正常な値であってもよい。オブジェクトデータ生成部312は、プロセスデータと、基準値との差分や、基準値に対するプロセスデータの割合等を算出した上で、当該差分や割合等の大きさに応じた表示態様を規定する情報をオブジェクトデータに含めてもよい。表示態様は、オブジェクトの表示の態様であれば特に限定されないが、例えばオブジェクトの色や階調であってもよいし、或いは、オブジェクトの形状、大きさ等であってもよい。 For example, the display mode of the object may be defined according to the comparison between the value of the corresponding process data and the reference value set for the corresponding process data. The reference value may be arbitrarily set according to the type of process data (that is, the type and installation position of the sensor), etc. For example, it may be a desired normal value for the process data. The object data generation unit 312 calculates the difference between the process data and the reference value, the ratio of the process data to the reference value, and the like, and then generates information that defines the display mode according to the magnitude of the difference, ratio, etc. May be included in object data. The display mode is not particularly limited as long as it is a display mode of the object, and may be, for example, the color or gradation of the object, or may be the shape, size, or the like of the object.
 以上のステップS11及びS12の動作処理は、プラント1の運転が終了することなどの所定の終了条件が満たされるまで繰り返される。 The operation processing of steps S11 and S12 described above is repeated until a predetermined termination condition such as the termination of the operation of the plant 1 is satisfied.
 次に、図5を用いて、本実施形態に係るシステム30のオブジェクトの表示に関する動作処理について説明する。当該動作処理では、プラント1のプロセスデータに基づいて生成されたオブジェクトデータに基づいて、プロセスデータに対応するオブジェクトが表示装置32に表示される。なお、以下に示すステップの内容や順序は一例であって、当該動作処理がこれに限られるものではない。 Next, with reference to FIG. 5, operation processing related to object display in the system 30 according to the present embodiment will be described. In the operation processing, an object corresponding to the process data is displayed on the display device 32 based on the object data generated based on the process data of the plant 1 . Note that the contents and order of the steps shown below are examples, and the operation process is not limited to this.
(S21)まず、表示制御部313は、オブジェクトの表示に関する所定の更新周期が到来したか否かを判定する。更新周期の長さは特に限定されず、任意に設定されてもよい。更新周期が到来したと判定された場合(S21;Yes)、処理はステップS11に進む。一方、更新周期が到来していないと判定された場合(S21;No)、当該ステップS10が再び実行される。 (S21) First, the display control unit 313 determines whether or not a predetermined update cycle regarding object display has arrived. The length of the update cycle is not particularly limited and may be set arbitrarily. If it is determined that the update cycle has arrived (S21; Yes), the process proceeds to step S11. On the other hand, when it is determined that the update period has not arrived (S21; No), the step S10 is executed again.
(S22)更新周期が到来したと判定された場合、表示制御部313は、上述したステップS12においてオブジェクトデータ生成部312により生成されたオブジェクトデータに基づいて、プラント1の各プロセスデータに対応するオブジェクト(図6及び7参照)を表示装置32に表示させる。以降は、所定の終了条件が満たされるまで、上述したステップS21及びS22が繰り返し実行される。これにより、表示装置32には、プラント1のプロセスデータの経時的な変化が表示されることとなる。 (S22) When it is determined that the update cycle has arrived, the display control unit 313 generates object data corresponding to each process data of the plant 1 based on the object data generated by the object data generation unit 312 in step S12 described above. (see FIGS. 6 and 7) is displayed on the display device 32. FIG. Thereafter, steps S21 and S22 described above are repeatedly executed until a predetermined termination condition is satisfied. As a result, the display device 32 displays changes over time in the process data of the plant 1 .
 図6は、本実施形態に係る表示装置32に表示される画面の一例を示す図である。図6には、表示装置32に表示される画面の一例として、画面DP1が示されている。画面DP1は、例えば、システム30の表示制御部313が生成した表示データに基づいて、表示装置32に表示される。 FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an example of a screen displayed on the display device 32 according to this embodiment. FIG. 6 shows a screen DP1 as an example of a screen displayed on the display device 32. As shown in FIG. The screen DP1 is displayed on the display device 32 based on display data generated by the display control unit 313 of the system 30, for example.
 画面DP1には、複数のプロセスデータに含まれる各プロセスデータに対応する複数のオブジェクトが、各プロセスデータが属するプラント1の系統毎にグループ化されて表示されてもよい。図6に示す例では、画面DP1には、プラント1の各プロセスデータに対応する複数の略矩形のオブジェクト101を含むチャート100が表示される。図5を参照して上述したとおり、表示制御部313は所定の更新周期の到来に応じて、表示装置32の表示内容を更新する。そのため、例えばプラント1の運転中において、図6に示すチャート100に含まれる各オブジェクト101の内容は、オブジェクトデータ生成部312によって生成される最新のオブジェクトデータに基づいて経時的に変化してもよい。 A plurality of objects corresponding to each process data included in a plurality of process data may be grouped and displayed on the screen DP1 for each system of the plant 1 to which each process data belongs. In the example shown in FIG. 6, a chart 100 including a plurality of substantially rectangular objects 101 corresponding to each process data of the plant 1 is displayed on the screen DP1. As described above with reference to FIG. 5, the display control unit 313 updates the display content of the display device 32 according to the arrival of the predetermined update cycle. Therefore, for example, during operation of the plant 1, the contents of each object 101 included in the chart 100 shown in FIG. 6 may change over time based on the latest object data generated by the object data generation unit 312. .
 図6に示すとおり、オブジェクト101内には、対応するプロセスデータの値が表示される。なお、オブジェクト101内には他の任意の情報が含まれてもよく、例えば、プロセスデータの値の増減傾向を示す情報や、プロセスデータの値に対する判定結果(正常、異常、注意等)等が含まれてもよい。 As shown in FIG. 6, the values of the corresponding process data are displayed in the object 101. Note that the object 101 may contain other arbitrary information, such as information indicating an increase/decrease tendency of the process data value, judgment results (normal, abnormal, caution, etc.) for the process data value, and the like. may be included.
 図6では、オブジェクト101の形状は略矩形である。しかしながら、オブジェクト101の形状は略矩形に限らず、略多角形、略円形、不定形等の任意の形状であってもよい。また、図6では、オブジェクト101の大きさはいずれも略等しいが、オブジェクト101毎に異なる大きさを呈していてもよい。図6に示す各オブジェクト101の内部には、所定の密度で斜線が引かれているが、当該斜線の密度は、オブジェクト101の色や階調等の表示態様を表している。 In FIG. 6, the shape of the object 101 is substantially rectangular. However, the shape of the object 101 is not limited to a substantially rectangular shape, and may be any shape such as a substantially polygonal shape, a substantially circular shape, or an irregular shape. Also, in FIG. 6, the sizes of the objects 101 are all substantially the same, but each object 101 may have a different size. The inside of each object 101 shown in FIG. 6 is hatched with a predetermined density.
 オブジェクト101の形状、大きさ、色、及び階調等を含む任意の表示態様は、対応するプロセスデータの値と、当該プロセスデータに対して設定された基準値との比較に応じた色で規定されてもよい。具体的には、例えば、オブジェクト101の形状、大きさ、色、及び階調等を含む任意の表示態様は、対応するプロセスデータの値と、当該プロセスデータに対して設定された基準値との差分や、基準値に対する当該プロセスデータの割合等に応じた色で規定されてもよい。ここで、基準値とは、プロセスデータの種類(すなわち、センサの種類や設置位置)等に応じて、任意に設定されてもよく、例えば、当該プロセスデータについて所望される正常な値であってもよい。例えば、図6に示す例においてオブジェクト101内の斜線の密度が色を表している場合、上記差分や割合等の値が大きいほどオブジェクト101の色は波長のより長い色(より暖色系に寄った色)に対応し、上記差分や割合等の値が小さいほどオブジェクト101の色は波長のより短い色(より寒色系に寄った色)に対応している。なお、上記差分や割合等の値とオブジェクト101の色との関係は、これとは逆であってもよい。また、同様に、例えば、図6に示す例においてオブジェクト101内の斜線の密度が階調を表している場合、上記差分や割合等の値が大きいほどオブジェクト101の階調は明るく、上記差分や割合等の値が小さいほどオブジェクト101の階調は暗い。なお、上記差分や割合等の値と階調の明暗との関係は、これとは逆であってもよい。 Arbitrary display modes including the shape, size, color, gradation, etc. of the object 101 are defined by colors according to comparison between the value of the corresponding process data and the reference value set for the process data. may be Specifically, for example, an arbitrary display mode including the shape, size, color, gradation, etc. of the object 101 is defined by the value of the corresponding process data and the reference value set for the process data. The color may be defined according to the difference, the ratio of the process data to the reference value, or the like. Here, the reference value may be arbitrarily set according to the type of process data (that is, the type and installation position of the sensor). good too. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 6, when the density of oblique lines in the object 101 represents the color, the larger the difference or ratio, the longer the wavelength of the object 101 (more warm). The color of the object 101 corresponds to a color with a shorter wavelength (colder color) as the value of the difference or ratio is smaller. Note that the relationship between the value of the difference or ratio and the color of the object 101 may be reversed. Similarly, for example, in the example shown in FIG. 6, when the density of oblique lines in the object 101 represents the gradation, the larger the value of the difference or ratio, the brighter the gradation of the object 101. The smaller the value such as the ratio, the darker the gradation of the object 101 . It should be noted that the relationship between the value of the difference or ratio and the brightness of the gradation may be reversed.
 以上のとおり、オブジェクト101の表示態様を、対応するプロセスデータの値と、当該プロセスデータに対して設定された基準値との比較に応じて規定することにより、オブジェクト101の表示態様を確認することでプロセスデータの基準値からの乖離の度合を簡易に把握することが可能となる。 As described above, the display mode of the object 101 can be confirmed by defining the display mode of the object 101 according to the comparison between the value of the corresponding process data and the reference value set for the process data. , it is possible to easily grasp the degree of divergence from the reference value of the process data.
 チャート100では、各オブジェクト101はプラント1の系統毎にグループ化して配置されている。図6には、プラント1に系統1から系統10までが含まれる場合の例が示されている。なお、これは一例であって、プラント1に含まれる系統の数は特に限定されない。具体的には、系統n(nは1から10までのいずれかの整数)に属するオブジェクト101は、チャート100内の第n行目に横一列に隣接して配置されている。なお、図6では、系統1に属するオブジェクト101の数は12個、系統2に属するオブジェクト101の数は6個などと示されているが、これらは一例であって、各系統に属するオブジェクト101の数は特に限定されない。このように、各オブジェクト101が系統毎にグループ化して配置されていることにより、系統に関連付けられた態様で効率的にプロセスデータを確認することができる。 In the chart 100, each object 101 is grouped for each system of the plant 1 and arranged. FIG. 6 shows an example in which the plant 1 includes systems 1 to 10 . Note that this is an example, and the number of systems included in the plant 1 is not particularly limited. Specifically, the objects 101 belonging to the system n (n is any integer from 1 to 10) are arranged adjacent to each other in a horizontal row on the n-th row in the chart 100 . In FIG. 6, the number of objects 101 belonging to the system 1 is 12, the number of objects 101 belonging to the system 2 is 6, etc., but these are only examples, and the objects 101 belonging to each system is not particularly limited. In this way, by grouping and arranging the objects 101 for each system, it is possible to efficiently check the process data in a manner associated with the system.
 本実施形態においてオブジェクトが「グループ化して配置される」とは、図6に示すように、オブジェクト101が横一列に隣接して配置される場合に限らず、オブジェクトが同一の系統に属することが把握できれば他の配置の態様であってもよい。そのような「グループ化して配置される」態様としては、例えば、同一の系統に属するオブジェクトが縦一列に配置される態様や、同一の系統に属するオブジェクトが斜めに配置される態様、同一の系統に属するオブジェクトが曲線的に配置される態様等を含んでもよい。また、同一の系統に属するオブジェクト同士や、異なる系統に属するオブジェクト同士は、隣接しなくてもよく、任意の距離で離隔していてもよい。 In this embodiment, the objects are "grouped and arranged", as shown in FIG. Other arrangements may be used as long as they can be grasped. Examples of such "grouped and arranged" modes include a mode in which objects belonging to the same system are arranged in a vertical line, a mode in which objects belonging to the same system are arranged diagonally, and a mode in which objects belonging to the same system are arranged diagonally. may include an aspect in which objects belonging to are arranged in a curved line. Objects belonging to the same system and objects belonging to different systems may not be adjacent to each other, and may be separated by an arbitrary distance.
 図6に示すチャート100では、各系統に属するオブジェクト101は、対応するプロセスデータの当該系統内における順序に応じた順序で配置されている。具体的には、例えば、各系統に含まれるオブジェクト101は、左側から右側に向かって、対応するプロセスデータの当該系統内の順序に沿って配置されている。換言すれば、当該系統内の順序がより早い(上流である)プロセスデータに対応するオブジェクト101はより左側に配置され、当該系統内の順序がより遅い(下流である)プロセスデータに対応するオブジェクト101はより右側に配置される。これにより、複数のプロセスデータを、各系統内における順序と共に把握することが可能となる。なお、各系統に属するオブジェクト101の配置の順序は、対応するプロセスデータの当該系統内における順序に限らず、任意の順序であってもよく、例えば、プロセスデータの値に応じた順序や、当該値と基準値との比較に応じた順序であってもよい。 In the chart 100 shown in FIG. 6, the objects 101 belonging to each system are arranged in an order according to the order of the corresponding process data within the system. Specifically, for example, the objects 101 included in each system are arranged along the order of the corresponding process data within the system from left to right. In other words, the object 101 corresponding to the process data earlier in the lineage (upstream) is placed further to the left, and the object 101 corresponding to the process data later in the lineage (downstream). 101 is placed further to the right. This makes it possible to grasp a plurality of process data together with the order in each system. Note that the order of arranging the objects 101 belonging to each system is not limited to the order of the corresponding process data within the system, and may be any order. The order may be according to the comparison between the value and the reference value.
 図7は、本実施形態に係る表示装置32に表示される画面の一例を示す図である。図7には、表示装置32に表示される画面の一例として、画面DP2が示されている。画面DP2は、例えば、システム30の表示制御部313が生成した表示データに基づいて、表示装置32に表示される。 FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of a screen displayed on the display device 32 according to this embodiment. FIG. 7 shows a screen DP2 as an example of a screen displayed on the display device 32. As shown in FIG. The screen DP2 is displayed on the display device 32 based on display data generated by the display control unit 313 of the system 30, for example.
 画面DP2は、上述した各プロセスデータに対応する複数のオブジェクトの他、複数のオブジェクトから選択されたオブジェクトに対応するプロセスデータの時系列グラフを含んでもよい。図7に示す例では、画面DP3において、複数のオブジェクト101を含むチャート100が表示され、更に、チャート100の下側には、時系列グラフ200が含まれている。時系列グラフ200は、チャート100に含まれる複数のオブジェクト101から選択されたオブジェクト101に対応するプロセスデータの時系列グラフである。時系列グラフ200において、横軸は時刻情報を、縦軸はプロセスデータの値をそれぞれ示している。 The screen DP2 may include a time-series graph of process data corresponding to an object selected from a plurality of objects in addition to the plurality of objects corresponding to each process data described above. In the example shown in FIG. 7, a chart 100 including a plurality of objects 101 is displayed on the screen DP3, and a time-series graph 200 is included below the chart 100. FIG. A time-series graph 200 is a time-series graph of process data corresponding to an object 101 selected from multiple objects 101 included in the chart 100 . In the time-series graph 200, the horizontal axis indicates time information, and the vertical axis indicates values of process data.
 操作者が、入力部30eを介して、チャート100に含まれる複数のオブジェクト101のうちから任意の少なくとも1つのオブジェクト101を選択する操作を実行すると、操作受付部314は、当該オブジェクト101の選択操作を受け付ける。そして、表示制御部313は、選択されたオブジェクト101に対応するプロセスデータを記憶部33から取得した上で、当該プロセスデータの時系列グラフ200を表示する。 When the operator performs an operation of selecting any at least one object 101 from among the plurality of objects 101 included in the chart 100 via the input unit 30e, the operation receiving unit 314 performs the selection operation of the object 101. accept. Then, the display control unit 313 acquires the process data corresponding to the selected object 101 from the storage unit 33 and displays the time-series graph 200 of the process data.
 図7に示す例では、チャート100において、系統5に属するオブジェクト101Pと、系統7に属するオブジェクト101Qとの、2つのオブジェクトが選択されている例が示されている。そして、時系列グラフ200には、オブジェクト101Pに対応するプロセスデータPの時系列グラフ201Pと、オブジェクト101Qに対応するプロセスデータQの時系列グラフ201Qが示されている。なお、時系列グラフ200において、左側の縦軸はプロセスデータPに対応し、右側の縦軸はプロセスデータQに対応している。 In the example shown in FIG. 7, the chart 100 shows an example in which two objects, an object 101P belonging to system 5 and an object 101Q belonging to system 7, are selected. The time-series graph 200 shows a time-series graph 201P of process data P corresponding to the object 101P and a time-series graph 201Q of process data Q corresponding to the object 101Q. In the time-series graph 200, the vertical axis on the left side corresponds to the process data P, and the vertical axis on the right side corresponds to the process data Q. FIG.
 なお、操作受付部314は、チャート100に含まれる複数のオブジェクト101のうち、対応するプロセスデータが時系列グラフ200に既に表示されているオブジェクト101(図7の例では、オブジェクト101Pや101Q)の選択を受け付けてもよい。そして、表示制御部313は、当該選択の受付に応じて、選択されたオブジェクト101に対応するプロセスデータの時系列グラフを時系列グラフ200から表示させないようにしてもよい。すなわち、表示制御部313は、操作受付部314による選択に応じて、選択されたオブジェクトに対応するプロセスデータの時系列グラフの表示及び非表示を切り替えてもよい。これにより、操作者はチャート100に含まれるオブジェクト101を任意に選択することにより、時系列グラフ200において所望のプロセスデータを選択的に表示させることが可能となる。 Note that the operation reception unit 314 selects an object 101 ( objects 101P and 101Q in the example of FIG. 7) whose corresponding process data is already displayed in the time-series graph 200 among the plurality of objects 101 included in the chart 100. A selection may be accepted. Then, the display control unit 313 may prevent the time-series graph of the process data corresponding to the selected object 101 from being displayed from the time-series graph 200 in response to acceptance of the selection. That is, the display control unit 313 may switch display and non-display of the time-series graph of the process data corresponding to the selected object according to the selection by the operation reception unit 314 . As a result, the operator can selectively display desired process data in the time-series graph 200 by arbitrarily selecting the object 101 included in the chart 100 .
