Abstract
A method and a guidance system for operating an industrial scale installation, especially a power plant installation, are provided. For this method and guidance system a number of installation operating parameters characterizing the operating state of the installation and several component operating parameters of selected components of the installation are monitored and stored in a memory device. A characteristic fatigue value characterizing the current fatigue state of each component is determined, as required, using the stored installation operating parameters and/or the stored associated component operating parameters. The purpose of this method and guidance system is to develop an operation of the installation which protects resources. To this end, an associated fatigue prognosis value is determined from the characteristic fatigue value characterizing the current fatigue state for each selected component using guiding parameters characterizing a planned change of state.

11. A method for operating an industrial scale installation, comprising:
-
monitoring a component operating parameter for a component of the industrial scale installation; monitoring an installation operating parameter for an operating state of the industrial scale installation; storing the component operating parameter in a storage facility; storing the installation operating parameter in the storage facility; determining a characteristic fatigue value for a current fatigue state of the component using the installation operating parameter and/or the component operating parameter; determining a predicted fatigue value for the component using the characteristic fatigue value and a plurality of guidance parameters from a planned change of state of the installation; identifying a guide component as the component with the highest predicted fatigue value; determining the predicted fatigue value of the guide component for each of a plurality of planned state changes; selecting one of the planned state changes based on the predicted fatigue value; and initiating the selected planned state change. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
