Method and system for controlling a filter

摘要

According to the method for controlling a filter (3) for an air intake duct of a turbine: the filter (3) is exposed to an incident flow of sprayed salt water; and parameters of the flow on either side of the filter, which are representative of the salt retention capability of the filter, are measured.

主权项

1. A method for monitoring a filter for an air intake duct of a turbine, the method comprising the steps of:
subjecting the filter to an incident flow of sprayed salt water; and measuring parameters of the flow on either side of the filter, representative of a salt retention capability of the filter, wherein the measuring step is performed in a test sequence of at least one monitoring test in which measurement members are moved in a test duct in which the filter is placed, and wherein each test comprises measurement of a salt concentration, a number of salt water droplets, and a quantity of water.
