Turbine life assessment and inspection system and methods

摘要

A system for creating an inspection or part replacement recommendation for a unit forming a part of a fleet includes an assessment module (64) that receives inputs from at least one portion of at least one turbine (60) and produces an inspection recommendation (70). The assessment module includes a health assessment module (301) that creates a risk of event estimate based on the inputs and historical operations data and a performance analyzer (316) coupled to the health assessment module that creates the inspection or part replacement recommendation based on the risk of event estimate and information related to a cost.
