Modelling of Multiple,Semantically-Coupled Flow-Graphs
Various monitoring applications specifically in the process industry but not restricted to it need explorable models representing multiple flows and their properties.Most (plant) models share two characteristics: They mix structural and behavioral aspects and they are tailored for specific applications-either with respect to human interpretation or for easy automated treatment.The under-lying physics are however often rather shrouded.Thus the implicit assumptions and prerequisites in many cases are not obvious,making it difficult to add new software layers or to re-engineer.This paper discusses systems dealing with multiple,balanceable flows,which are semantically (i.e.usually physically) coupled,independently from their application domain.Specifically the various flow characteristics and their interaction are contrasted.By providing check-lists for these properties design decisions and their consequences are made explicit.The second part of this paper derives and discusses the graph representation in a general way.Starting off from several graphs (one per balanceable flow) finally one single hierarchically structured graph is derived.Additionally some aspects for implementations are discussed briefly.
