Course Description
This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators.
This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of turbine and compressor controls. It will cover the compressor and turbine control solutions ranging from theoretical discussions of control algorithms to turbine mechanical retrofits. Dynamic simulations and application examples will be used to demonstrate problems and solutions.
Further, the course will also discuss the typical performance curve for a centrifugal compressor indicating the ‘surge line’; the main parameters measured for the antisurge control; the basic schematic control scheme for the antisurge control of a centrifugal compressor; the requirements for load sharing of two compressors working in a parallel network t; the surge in a compressor, antisurge control and how it works; and the compressor load sharing and the main functions of a gas turbine control system.
During this interactive course, participants will learn the main control parameters for the protection of gas turbines; the schematic diagram of a governor control system and a gas turbine control; the protection scheme and starting of the sequence of a gas turbine; the system operation and the function of a servo valve used in gas turbines.
