چکیده

A novel neural-network based technique is described for the remote condition-monitoring of an in-service gas-turbine flowmeter. The method uses a C language implementation of a modified multi-layer perceptron (MLP) neural networks, which enables detection of the accumulation of contaminating material on the rotor blades that could lead to changes in meter-factor and loss of calibration.

A New Recurrent Fuzzy Neural Network Controller Design for Speed and Exhaust Temperature of a Gas Turbine Power Plant

In this paper, a recurrent fuzzy-neural network (RFNN) controller with neural network identifier in direct control model is designed to control the speed and exhaust temperature of the gas turbine in a combined cycle power plant. Since the turbine operation in combined cycle unit is considered, speed and exhaust temperature of the gas turbine should be simultaneously controlled by fuel command ...

Detection of blade contamination in turbine flowmeters using neural networks

The accumulation of contaminating materials on the rotor blades of a gas turbine flowmeter is a condition of concern to the manufacturers, since it can lead to loss of calibration. Over time, a deposit of tar and heavy oil mixed with sand and dust can build up on the rotor blades, which causes the meter factor to change from its original value of calibration. A novel neural-network technique is...
