Abstract

The objective of this study is to establish a Data Processing System to monitor system operation performance during test and changing weather conditions and support the ADVS performance simulation and other applications. This Data Processing System was separated into four basic procedures: (1) Data Copying Procedure, copying the raw data from initial tape to disk pack for later processing; (2) Data Converting Procedure, converting the raw data of each channel currently in service into the appropriate process variables by using calibration curves; (3) Data Storage, preserving raw and converted data for later use and for historical purposes; and (4) Recovery of Data, recovering selected data for use in analysis and evaluation. This Data Processing System built up a data base to supply data for simulation and analysis of any operating day since the ADVS began operations and data collection on January 23, 1980.
