Gas Turbine Diagnostics: Signal Processing and Fault Isolation
Published:
December 13, 2012
Author(s):
Ranjan Ganguli
Widely used for power generation, gas turbine engines are susceptible to faults due to the harsh working environment. Most engine problems are preceded by a sharp change in measurement deviations compared to a baseline engine, but the trend data of these deviations over time are contaminated with …
