Abstract
A load monitoring system for a facility includes a computer system configured to execute a model of the object, the model configured to estimate a state of the object as a function of measured values of at least one characteristic of the object, receive at least one measured value of the at least one characteristic of the object, and execute, by the computer system, the model to compute an estimated state of the object.
Claims18
A system for monitoring an electric load powered from a power supply, the system comprising:
- a plurality of sensors each configured to measure at least one value of at least one characteristic of the load and transmit at least one measured value of the at least one characteristic, a first sensor of the plurality of sensors configured to measure a first characteristic at a first plurality of times and a second sensor of the plurality of sensors configured to measure a second characteristic at a second plurality of times;
- and
- a computer system configured to:
- receive the at least one measured value from the first sensor and the second sensor;
- compute an estimated state of the load in response to receiving the at least one measured value from the first sensor and the second sensor;
- execute a model configured to estimate a state of the load as a function of the at least one measured value of the at least one characteristic of the load;
- receive at least one measured value of at least one characteristic of a second load;
- and
- execute the model for the second load to compute an estimated state of the second load, wherein the model is changed before being executed for the second load.

A method of monitoring an electric load, the method comprising:
- providing power to the load via a power supply;
- measuring, by each of a plurality of sensors, at least one value of at least one characteristic of the load, a first sensor of the plurality of sensors measuring a first characteristic at a first plurality of times and a second sensor of the plurality of sensors measuring a second characteristic at a second plurality of times;
- transmitting the at least one measured value from the first sensor and the second sensor to a computer system;
- receiving, by the computer system, the at least one measured value from the first sensor and the second sensor;
- computing, by the computer system, an estimated state of the load in response to receiving the at least one measured value from the first sensor and the second sensor;
- executing, by the computer system, a model configured to estimate a state of the load as a function of the at least one measured value of the at least one characteristic of the load;
- receiving, by the computer system, at least one measured value of at least one characteristic of a second load;
- and
- executing, by the computer system, the model for the second load to compute an estimated state of the second load, wherein the model is changed before being executed for the second load.
