Embodiment Construction

[0052] One or more specific embodiments of the present invention will be described below. In an effort to provide a concise description of these embodiments, not all features of an actual implementation may be described in the specification. It should be appreciated that when developing any such actual implementation, as in any engineering or design project, a number of implementation-specific decisions must be made to achieve the developer's specific goals, such as compliance with system-related and business-related constraints, the specific goals of developers may vary from implementation to implementation. In addition, it should be appreciated that such a development effort might be complex and time-consuming, but would nonetheless be a routine matter of design, manufacture, and fabrication for those of ordinary skill having the benefit of this disclosure. Task.

[0053] When introducing elements of various embodiments of the invention, the articles "a," "an," "the," and ...

Abstract

The present invention relates to multi-stage compressor fault detection and protection. In certain embodiments, a system includes a controller (14) configured to obtain an inter-stage pressure measurement between stages of a multi-stage compressor (16). The controller (14) is also configured to identify actual damage in the multi-stage compressor (16) based at least in part on the inter-stage pressure measurement.

Description

technical field [0001] The subject matter disclosed herein relates to fault detection and protection of compressors. Background technique [0002] Compressors are used in a wide variety of industries and systems to compress gases, such as air. For example, gas turbine engines typically include a compressor to provide compressed air for combustion and cooling. As is understood, the health of the compressor affects the performance, efficiency, downtime, and overall availability of the machine. If compressor components (eg, blades, seals, etc.) are worn or damaged, the compressor may not be able to provide sufficient gas (eg, air) compression to a target system (eg, a gas turbine engine). Furthermore, damage to compressor components can cause damage to targeted systems (eg, gas turbine engines), resulting in downtime and increased repair costs. This is particularly problematic for power plants that rely on the continuous operation of the gas turbine engine. Therefore, it is...
