Abstract: In the present paper a method for the identification of faulty stages in a multistage compressor is presented. The values of overall compressor parameters, namely mass flow rate, pressure ratio, ...

Abstract: In this paper, we present a method for defining the health estimation parameters and the measurements that must be used when a monitoring system for an engine is being set up. The particular ...

Abstract: An approach for identification of faults in blades of a gas turbine, based on physical modelling, is presented. A measured quantity is used as an input, and the deformed blading configuration ...

Abstract: A method is presented allowing the simulation of gas turbine performance with the possibility of adapting to engine particularities. Measurements along the gas path are used, in order to adapt ...

Abstract: A method of identifying the gradual deterioration in the components of jet engines is presented. It is based on the use of an engine model which has the capability to adapt component condition ...

Abstract: A method for defining which parts of a combined cycle gas turbine (CCGT) power plant are responsible for performance deviations is presented. When the overall performances deviate from their ...

Abstract: A method for diagnosing component faults of jet engines is presented. It uses nonlinear gas path analysis techniques to determine the values of health parameters, with the help of a suitably ...

Abstract: The influence of faults in the variable geometry (variable stator vanes) system of a multistage axial compressor on the performance of an industrial gas turbine is investigated. An experimental ...
