Systems and Methods for Testing a Gas Turbine

摘要

Embodiments of the disclosure relate to performance testing of a gas turbine. In one embodiment, a gas turbine performance testing system can include a server, a transducer system, a signal converter, and an automated gas chromatograph. The transducer system acquires one or more functional parameters of the gas turbine and the signal converter converts the functional parameters acquired by the transducer system to gas turbine operational data. The automated gas chromatograph automatically analyzes a test sample of a natural gas that is used to operate the gas turbine. The gas turbine operational data generated by the signal converter and the analysis information obtained from the test sample are provided to the server for propagating via a communication network, to a client computer where the gas turbine operational data and the analysis information can be used to obtain a gas turbine performance test result.

主权项

1. A gas turbine performance testing system comprising:
a server communicatively coupled to a client computer via a communication network; a transducer system configured to acquire one or more functional parameters of a gas turbine; a signal converter communicatively coupled to the transducer system, the signal converter configured to convert the acquired one or more functional parameters into gas turbine operational data that is provided to the server for propagating to the client computer; and an automated gas chromatograph communicatively coupled to the server, the automated gas chromatograph configured to automatically analyze a test sample of a natural gas that is used to operate the gas turbine and to provide analysis information obtained from the test sample to the server for propagating to the client computer for combining with the gas turbine operational data to obtain a gas turbine performance test result.
