Book excerpt: In the pipeline industry, Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems are used to collect data from pipeline sensors in real time and display these data to humans who monitor the data from remote sites and remotely operate pipeline control equipment. This National Transportation Safety Board study was designed to examine how pipeline companies use SCADA systems to monitor and record operating data and to evaluate the role of SCADA systems in leak detection.

Download or read book Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition System written by Khalilur Rahman and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems are playing an increasingly important role in the electrical power, petroleum and gas, transport, water treatment and other large industries although recent trends indicate that the system is catching interest in the building and energy management area. A well designed SCADA system can simplify the operation of complicated plants., enhance safety and reduce man-power needed in hazardous environment, improve the performance of plant operators when faced with emergency situations, and increase the efficiency of plants. This paper deals with SCADA system in the electrical power industry and concentrates on the role played by microprocessors in the Remote Termonal Unit (RTU).

Download or read book United States Code written by United States and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 1358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The United States Code is the official codification of the general and permanent laws of the United States of America. The Code was first published in 1926, and a new edition of the code has been published every six years since 1934. The 2012 edition of the Code incorporates laws enacted through the One Hundred Twelfth Congress, Second Session, the last of which was signed by the President on January 15, 2013. It does not include laws of the One Hundred Thirteenth Congress, First Session, enacted between January 2, 2013, the date it convened, and January 15, 2013. By statutory authority this edition may be cited "U.S.C. 2012 ed." As adopted in 1926, the Code established prima facie the general and permanent laws of the United States. The underlying statutes reprinted in the Code remained in effect and controlled over the Code in case of any discrepancy. In 1947, Congress began enacting individual titles of the Code into positive law. When a title is enacted into positive law, the underlying statutes are repealed and the title then becomes legal evidence of the law. Currently, 26 of the 51 titles in the Code have been so enacted. These are identified in the table of titles near the beginning of each volume. The Law Revision Counsel of the House of Representatives continues to prepare legislation pursuant to 2 U.S.C. 285b to enact the remainder of the Code, on a title-by-title basis, into positive law. The 2012 edition of the Code was prepared and published under the supervision of Ralph V. Seep, Law Revision Counsel. Grateful acknowledgment is made of the contributions by all who helped in this work, particularly the staffs of the Office of the Law Revision Counsel and the Government Printing Office"--Preface.

Download or read book Critical Infrastructure Protection written by Javier Lopez and published by Springer. This book was released on 2012-03-15 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present volume aims to provide an overview of the current understanding of the so-called Critical Infrastructure (CI), and particularly the Critical Information Infrastructure (CII), which not only forms one of the constituent sectors of the overall CI, but also is unique in providing an element of interconnection between sectors as well as often also intra-sectoral control mechanisms. The 14 papers of this book present a collection of pieces of scientific work in the areas of critical infrastructure protection. In combining elementary concepts and models with policy-related issues on one hand and placing an emphasis on the timely area of control systems, the book aims to highlight some of the key issues facing the research community.

This book was released on 2008-07-01 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technological advancements in recent years have enabled the development of tiny, cheap disposable and self contained battery powered computers, known as sensor nodes or “motes”, which can accept input from an attached sensor, process this input and transmit the results wirelessly to some interested device(s). When a number of these nodes work together, conceivably up to hundreds of thousands, a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is formed. Research in the area of wireless sensor networks has become increasingly wid- pread in recent years, partly due to their wide range of potential uses and also partly due to the fact that the technology enabling such networks is now widely available from many di?erent suppliers, such as: Crossbow, MoteIV, Intel and SUN (java based motes). These wireless sensor networks have the potential to allow a level of integration between computers and the physical world that, to date, has been virtually impos- ble. The uses for such networks is almost limitless and include such diverse app- cations as a counter sniper system for urban warfare [1] tracking the path of a forest re [2], determining the structural stability of a building after an earthquake [3], or tracking people or objects inside a building [4], etc.

Download or read book Liquid Pipepline Hudraulics written by E. Shashi Menon and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2013-04 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers liquid pipeline hydraulics as it applies to transportation of liquids through pipelines in a single phase steady state environment. It will serve as a practical handbook for engineers, technicians and others involved in design and operation of pipelines transporting liquids. Currently, existing books on the subject are mathematically rigorous, theoretical and lack practical applications. Using this book, engineers can better understand and apply the principles of hydraulics to their daily work in the pipeline industry without resorting to complicated formulas and theorems. Numerous examples from the author's real life experience are included to illustrate application of pipeline hydraulics.
