Projects

As the name of our center already suggests, the common denominator of our activities is a dynamic flow / flow control environment.

Some projects and/or subjects FCoE is/was involved with:

Metrology and flow measurement

• Development of new (liquid) flow meters
• Product improvement (provers)

Process industry

• OI4 Demonstrator
• Process control (integrated DCS/SCADA systems, pump drives)
• Testing flow related equipment/units

Maritime sector

• Optimization of propulsion
• Dynamic ship balancing

Data, diagnostics and communication

• Smart Maintenance 4.0
• OI4 Demonstrator
• Logging and analysis of process data
  • FCoE will make available data sets of the XCaliber installation for research
• Logging and analysis of performance data / sensoring and diagnostics,
  • e.g. in-line flow meters, P- and T sensors, pumps and valves.
• New communication Field -> Control

In these projects we cooperate with a.o.:
VAF, KROHNE, Schneider Electric, UReason and Balluff.
