CONTROL SYSTEMS, COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS AND METHODS RELATED TO APPLICATION OF PROBABILISTIC CONTROL IN GAS TURBINE TUNING IN ACCORDANCE WITH MEASUREMENT ERROR

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide probabilistic control in gas turbine tuning in accordance with measurement error.SOLUTION: A computing device is configured to tune a set of gas turbines (GTs) by: commanding each GT in the set of GTs to a base load level, on the basis of a measured ambient condition for each GT; commanding each GT in the set of GTs to adjust an individual output to match a nominal mega-watt power output value, and subsequently measuring an actual emissions value for each GT; adjusting an operating condition of each GT in the set of GTs on the basis of a difference between the individual measured actual emissions value and a nominal emissions value under the ambient condition; and further adjusting an operating condition of each GT in the set of GTs on the basis of a determined emissions measurement error.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
