Abstract
A vibration analysis system for predicting performance of a building system includes one or more memory devices configured to store instructions that, when executed on one or more processor, cause the one or more processors to receive vibration data from the building equipment, generate a performance prediction for the building equipment, generate a performance explanation for the performance prediction, and cause a user interface to display the performance prediction and the performance explanation.
Claims20
A vibration analysis system for predicting performance of building equipment, the system comprising:
- one or more memory devices configured to store instructions that, when executed on one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
- receive vibration data from the building equipment, the vibration data indicating the performance of the building equipment;
- generate, based on a prediction model and the vibration data, a performance prediction for the building equipment;
- generate, based on the vibration data, a performance explanation for the performance prediction, the performance explanation comprising an indication of one or more data points of the vibration data associated with the performance prediction and further comprising an explanation indicating one or more reasons that the performance prediction will occur;
- and
- cause a user interface to display the performance prediction and the performance explanation.
A method for predicting performance of building equipment, the method comprising:
- receiving, by a processing circuit, vibration data from the building equipment, the vibration data indicating the performance of the building equipment;
- analyzing, by the processing circuit, the vibration data with a data analysis model;
- generating, by the processing circuit, a performance prediction for the building equipment, the performance prediction based on the analyzed vibration data and a prediction model;
- generating, by the processing circuit, a performance explanation for the performance prediction, the performance explanation comprising an indication of one or more data points of the vibration data associated with the performance prediction and further comprising an explanation indicating one or more reasons that the performance prediction will occur;
- and
- displaying, on a user interface by the processing circuit, the performance prediction and the performance explanation to a user.
A building system of a building, the system comprising:
- building equipment configured to operate to control one or more environmental conditions of the building, wherein the building equipment comprise one or more vibration sensors configured to collect vibration data while the building equipment operates to control the one or more environmental conditions;
- a processing circuit configured to:
- receive the vibration data from the building equipment, the vibration data indicating performance of the building equipment;
- generate, based on a prediction model and the vibration data, a performance prediction for the building equipment;
- generate, based on the vibration data, a performance explanation for the performance prediction, the performance explanation comprising an indication of one or more data points of the vibration data associated with the performance prediction and further comprising an explanation indicating one or more reasons that the performance prediction will occur;
- and
- cause a user interface to display the performance prediction and the performance explanation.
