<p>A method and apparatus are provided for performing hot and cold alignment checks of coupled, rotating machines (281, 28n). The alignment check includes compensation for thermal growth (62) and dynamic movement (63), as appropriate. The alignment measuring device (26) provides readings that are converted to values of angularity and off set. The converted values of angularity and off set, as adjusted by the thermal growth and other factors, is compared to a cold alignment specification to determine if alignment of the machines is warranted. The thermal growth and dynamic movement factors are estimated or derived empirically, using graphical user interfaces. The method and apparatus provide suggested movement values to align a machine.</p> |
