Ship Management System (SMS)

Benefits from integration

Ship management operation through a single system SMS collects all subsystems data providing an unique Plant Interface to the operators Smaller need for ship manning and more interoperability Numbers, type of subsystems and their level of integration depend on owner request, navy or merchant market, etc.

Diagnostic System Architecture

Preliminary Analysis - Process Diagnosis
Process diagnosis is based on a set of baselines of machinery functional data (i.e. all process data are stored in different running conditions) Evaluation of data reliability is performed through comparison between real data and saved baselines

Several diagnostic indexes are computed at different level (plant, machinery, ) and displayed as radar plots

SEAST EM A SpA January 4, 2011 | Slide 18

Diagnostic System Architecture

Preliminary Analysis - Frequency Analysis
Both global vibration value and frequency analysis are used to perform machine diagnosis Frequency analysis allows to identify the following symptoms: misalignment unbalance looseness rolling bearing damages belt transmission problems oil whirl Real data are compared with recorded baselines

Diagnostic System Architecture

Vibration Monitoring System
For each of the 6 FREMM frigates: Over 200 accelerometers; N 8 SPM Intellinova Unit with 32 channels each; OPC bidirectional communication with ship management system; Baseline recording and alert/alarm threshold tuning;

Diagnostic System Architecture

Health & performance Assessment - Expert System

Vibration and data process are merged to perform expert diagnosis and evaluate machine performance Expert System provides maintenance advises to Operators in order to manage critical situations
SEAST EM A SpA January 4, 2011 | Slide 21

Diagnostic System Architecture

Predictive Assessment - Trend Analysis

In case of slow phenomena like degradation of filters and heat exchangers, the system performs a trend analysis able to predict the remaining operation time of the component in order to optimize maintenance schedule.
