Towards an Integrated Approach for Micro Gas Turbine Fleet Monitoring, Control and Diagnostics

• Real-time engine condition monitoring and fault diagnostics results in reduced operating and maintenance costs and increased component and engine life. Prediction of faults can change the maintenance model of a system from a fixed maintenance interval to a condition based maintenance interval, further decreasing the total cost of ownership of a system. Technologies developed for engine health monitoring and advanced diagnostic capabilities are generally developed for larger gas turbines, and generally focus on a single system; no solutions are publicly available for engine fleets. This paper presents a concept for fleet monitoring finely tuned to the specific needs of micro gas turbines. The proposed framework includes a physics-based model and a data-driven model with machine learning capabilities for predicting system behaviour, combined with a diagnostic tool for anomaly detection and classification. The integrated system will develop advanced diagnostics and condition monitoring for gas turbines with a power output under 100 kW.
