Real-time Storage Emptying Time/Date Calculation
Using only the real time data from a storage vessel's weight transmitter/load cell, is there a way to create some sort of calculator that estimates the date/time it will be empty in real time? The calculation would need to update in real time and use a capsule of the last 15-30 min of load cell data to calculate a linear rate.
I've tried using the new forcastLinear() function, but am having a hard time translating that data into an emptying time estimation. I am also unsure if it will upda
Sam,
You can pretty easily forecast the value from now till you empty setpoint and then display the result as a Capsule on the screen as well as a Time/Duration in a Scorecard/Table and have all the results update in real-time
For my example I am going to use some example data but this should look very similar for your use case
Step 1 - Create a Forecasted Value - This function may not work on exactly as you expect on historical data depending on your datasource
