Advanced Integrated Monitoring

GtAnalysis provides advanced state of the art real time monitoring systems for gas turbine based electric generators. The real time monitoring systems for thermal performance, combustion dynamic monitoring (CDM), Mechanical Vibration, and Bearing and Lubrication allows you to maintain close attention to the details of your plant equipments operation.

Operating unaware of internal component trends can result in loss of generation impacting contracts and increased outage time when failures occur. Its all to common that mechanical vibration alerts operators of an occurring compressor failures to late. We combined artificial intelligence methods to reduce a number of critical parameters to detect the developing component failure.

Its not unreasonable to expect a 3 million dollar repair for a 7FA compressor and many have failed taking out collateral stages.

The GTIntelligentAnalyzer continually reduces data breaking each component down in hierarchy to achieve usually unavailable results such as effiencies and turbine firing levels and then correlates normal operation with mechanical dynamics. Artificial intelligence is utilized to evaluate developing and imminent component failures. Additional benefits are listed below.

  • Prevention of compressor failures

  • Prevention of combustor transition piece damage and failures.

  • Pre to post outage evaluation

  • Remote Performance Engineering Services available

  • Remote Combustion Tuning Services available

  • These examples are just a few items that would come up, but the significance of the extended staffing program is in its low cost design through a longer term relationship and known encountered procedures. The closer attention and resulting performance derived cost savings in your equipment operation would be significant when compared to the labor cost of an immediate unexpected hidden operational issue that evolved over time. Please inquire if this program makes sense to you.
