This is my recorded video detailing about the TEC 400 trip report. It talks about the
various summaries of the report, that is, the SCADA system, IoT and Edge Computing,
comparison between Aluminum and Cast Iron Block, and Petrol Vs Diesel Engine
SUMMARIES OF THE TEC 400 REPORT
Video 1: Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA)
SCADA is a system that is used to gather and analyze real-time data in order to monitor and
control equipment that deals with critical infrastructure control. A SCADA system is mostly used
in industries like energy, oil and gas pipeline, water distribution system, power, and many more.
A SCADA control system uses computers, networked data communications, and graphical user
interfaces for high-level process supervisory management, but it also uses other peripheral
devices to interface with the process plant or machinery, such as programmable logic
controllers and discrete PID controllers.
A SCADA system operates by sending signals over channels to offer users remote control of
any equipment in a particular system. For example, the control center is linked to the PLC by an
Ethernet connection, which is also linked to various field instruments such as sensors and
actuators via an Ethernet port. The control center monitors and controls entire sites, ranging
from industrial plants to entire complex plants.
There are two important elements, involved in the modern SCADA system;
SCADA system works by communicating in real-time with the controllers i.e. PLCs or RTUs out
in the field that is running the actual process. It then gathers information, from the said
controllers. The data is then displayed on a monitor, to look like an animation. SCADA system
includes some sort of historian products, to ensure the real-time process information can be
tracked over the long term.
