Solution Overview

Problem

Existing remote supervisory control systems for electric generators face reliability issues due to insufficient determination of driving value updates, leading to potential driving errors and reduced reliability in power generation.

Innovation Solution

A remote supervisory control system that includes a server capable of applying a representative driving value to electric generators, receiving feedback signals, determining the normalcy of the driving value, and updating it with a second priority value when errors are detected, ensuring stable and reliable operation.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If a driving value is updated when an error is sensed in one electric generator, then the electric generator can be driven normally, but a subsequent driving error and driving value error may occur due to insufficient determination

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedriving control reliabilityVSAvoiderror determination precision
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements a feedback mechanism where the server receives driving feedback signals from electric generators and uses this feedback to determine whether driving values are normal. The feedback loop enables continuous monitoring and verification of driving values before and after updates, preventing erroneous updates while maintaining system reliability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The server performs preliminary determination of whether a driving value is normal before updating it. By checking the normalcy of driving values in advance through feedback signals and comparing with other generators' driving values, the system prevents erroneous updates from occurring, thereby maintaining driving control reliability without sacrificing determination precision.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Ease of operation

If driving values are updated based on preset priority when errors occur, then control can be maintained, but the determination of whether the updated driving value is normal may be insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedriving value update operationVSAvoiddriving value normalcy determination
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system uses feedback signals from electric generators to continuously monitor driving values. When a driving value needs updating based on preset priority, the feedback mechanism verifies whether the updated value is normal by comparing it with actual generator performance and other generators' driving values, ensuring reliable determination while maintaining ease of operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The server acts as an intermediary that mediates between the preset priority-based driving value selection and the actual generator operation. It receives feedback signals, determines normalcy, and only applies updates that pass this verification, thereby ensuring reliable determination while preserving the operational simplicity of priority-based updates.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Adaptability or versatility

If multiple electric generators operate with different driving values, then individual control is possible, but consistency and reliability of driving control may be degraded

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveindividual generator control adaptabilityVSAvoiddriving control reliability
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The server receives driving feedback signals from multiple electric generators and uses this feedback to continuously determine whether each generator's driving value is normal. This feedback mechanism ensures that even though generators operate with different driving values based on individual needs, the system maintains reliability by verifying each value's normalcy through continuous monitoring and comparison.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback
