THE CONTROL TECHNOLOGY TRANSITION AND ITS PROSPECTS AT LNG RECEIVING TERMINALS IN JAPAN.

Summary

IN JAPAN, TERMINALS WHICH PROVIDE FOR THE PRODUCTION OF ELECTRICITY AND GAS MUST ENSURE DELIVERY STABILITY, BE ABSOLUTELY RELIABLE AND ANSWER TO THE DEMAND FLUCTUATIONS. COMPUTERS ARE USED FOR THE CONTROL AND AUTOMATION OF THE STARTING AND STOPPING OF EQUIPMENT, IN A STEADY STATE OR IN A PARTIALLY UNSTABLE STATE, AND CHANGING LOAD OPERATIONS. THANKS TO THE INCREASE IN THE NUMBER OF DETECTION AND OPERATION DEVICES, OF CONTROL COMPUTERS AND INSTALLATIONS, TERMINALS HAVE BECOME MORE RELIABLE AND ENSURE A BETTER STABILITY. THE ARTICLE PRESENTS THE SPECIFICATIONS AND THE EVOLUTION OF THESE SYSTEMS AS WELL AS THE MOST RECENT DEVELOPMENTS.
