Iden­ti­fy­ing and Prevent­ing Vi­bra­tions in Com­bus­tion Cham­bers

Real-Time Iden­ti­fi­ca­tion and Re­ac­tion

Our so­lu­tion for com­bus­tion cham­bers

A mon­i­tor­ing sys­tem that iden­ti­fies these haz­ardous vi­bra­tions in time, ini­ti­ates pro­tec­tive mea­sures and can thus pre­vent cost­ly dam­age.

Our IFTA Ar­gusOMDS sys­tem so­lu­tion of­fers solid so­lu­tions rang­ing from sen­sors to patent­ed early de­tec­tion of com­bus­tion os­cil­la­tions (IFTA PreCur­sor) that allow safe op­er­a­tion of the gas tur­bine through­out its en­tire op­er­at­ing range. Real-time anal­y­sis with a DSP (Dig­i­tal Sig­nal Pro­ces­sor) en­sures re­li­able and fast re­sponse times in frac­tions of a sec­ond. In ad­di­tion, this also al­lows the op­er­at­ing range to be ex­tend­ed, i.e. a deep­er re­duc­tion in the par­tial load range to save gas and a high­er max­i­mum load to in­crease ef­fi­cien­cy, see SIEMENS En­er­gy aSMC.

The IFTA sys­tems are used in this en­vi­ron­ment for com­mis­sion­ing, tun­ing (sum­mer/win­ter tun­ing) and con­tin­u­ous mon­i­tor­ing and con­trol. Due to the con­tin­u­ous long-term stor­age in­clud­ing the high-res­o­lu­tion raw data, the anal­y­sis of un­fore­seen or spo­radic events is also pos­si­ble.
