Jarle Vikør Ekanger

Instrumentation Engineering Specialist, MSc, PhD

Jeg lager løsninger for instrumentering og innsamling av signaler i kraftverk og lignende industrielle miljøer. Da jeg samtidig inngår i FDB sitt utviklingslag for programvare har jeg hele datakjeden fra sensor til sluttbruker i tankene når jeg utvikler mine løsninger. 

I FDB har jeg vært med å utvikle programvaren HydroCord Server som er FDB sitt produkt for datainnsamling og datatransport. Jeg har laget modeller som transporterer data kontinuerlig og uavhengig av forskjeller i sikkerhetsnivå mellom nettverk for avsender og mottager.

Portefølje

Main projects at FDB

  • Cavitation monitoring, 2011-2016. Together with a hydropower operator and U of Catalonia- Barcelona (UPC).
    Development and implementation of innovative cavitation monitoring device for the hydropower business. The solution can be applied in any flow system experiencing cavitation.   
  • Head of instrumentation in the EU H2020 RIA project AFC4Hydro, 2019-2023. Responsible for HW-SW solutions for data acquisition and control. Development and construction of solution for laboratory and fields tests. Several field trips involving start-up of systems and eventual troubleshooting.


  • SW engineer for the development of FDBs data-acquistion solution, HydroCord. 2017-205.  
    –  Programming activities from maintenance of FDBs “modular architecture”, on which HydroCord is based, to development of new features. 
    –  Development of database solutions and database-HMIs for data-flows generated by hydropower operators. 
    –  Lead developer for analysis plugin- functionality.
