Abstract:This paper summarizes an analysis of data obtained from an instrumented compressor of an operational, heavy duty industrial gas turbine; the goal of the aforementioned analysis is to understand some of the fundamental drivers which may lead to compressor blade vibration. Methodologies are needed to 1.) understand the fundamental drivers of compressor blade vibration, 2.) quantify the severity of “events” which accelerate the likelihood of failure and reduce the remaining life of the blade, and 3.) proactively … Show more
