REAL-TIME MONITORING OF GAS TURBINE LIFE

摘要

A system, method and computer-readable medium for monitoring a life of a gas turbine component is disclosed. A numerical model of the gas turbine component is created and parameter measurements are obtained in real-time for at least a portion of the gas turbine component. The parameter measurements are fused with a subset of the numerical model corresponding to the portion of the gas turbine component to obtain a subset of a fused parameter model corresponding to the portion of the gas turbine component. The subset of the fused parameter model is expanded to obtain the fused parameter model that corresponds to at least a location outside of the portion of the gas turbine component. The life of the gas turbine component is monitored using the fused temperature model.

1. A method of monitoring a life of a gas turbine component, comprising:
estimating, using a processor, a numerical model of a parameter at the gas turbine component; obtaining measurements of the parameter in real-time for a portion of the gas turbine component; fusing the parameter measurements and a subset of the numerical model corresponding to the portion of the gas turbine component to obtain a subset of a fused parameter model corresponding to the portion of the gas turbine component; expanding the subset of the fused parameter model obtain the fused parameter model that corresponds to at least a location outside of the portion of the gas turbine component; and monitoring the life of the gas turbine component using the fused parameter model.
