METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR REAL TIME GAS TURBINE PERFORMANCE ADVISORY

摘要

A system and method for monitoring and diagnosing anomalies in an output of a gas turbine, the method including storing a plurality rule sets specific to a performance of the gas turbine. The method further including receiving real-time and historical data inputs relating to parameters affecting the performance of the gas turbine, periodically determining current values of the parameters, comparing the initial values to respective ones of the current values, determining a degradation over time of the at least one of the performance of the compressor, the power output, the heat rate, and the fuel consumption based on the comparison, recommending to an operator of the gas turbine a set of corrective actions to correct the degradation.

1. A computer-implemented method for monitoring and diagnosing anomalies in an output of a gas turbine, the method implemented using a computer device coupled to a user interface and a memory device, the method comprising:
storing a plurality rule sets in a memory device, the rule sets relative to the output of the gas turbine, the rule sets comprising at least one rule expressed as a relational expression of a real-time data output relative to a real-time data input, the relational expression being specific to at least one of a performance of a compressor of the gas turbine, a power output of the gas turbine, a heat rate of the gas turbine, and a fuel consumption of the gas turbine; receiving real-time and historical data inputs from a condition monitoring system associated with the gas turbine, the data inputs relating to parameters affecting at least one of the performance of the compressor, the power output, the heat rate, and the fuel consumption; determining initial values of at least one of the performance of the compressor, the power output, the heat rate, and the fuel consumption; periodically determining current values of at least one of the performance of the compressor, the power output, the heat rate, and the fuel consumption; comparing the determined initial values to respective ones of the current values; determining a degradation over time of the at least one of the performance of the compressor, the power output, the heat rate, and the fuel consumption based on the comparison; and recommending to an operator of the gas turbine a set of corrective actions to correct the degradation.
