Abstract

See full text

Methods and systems for determining that a sensor, such as a pressure sensor, that provides feedback on one or more conditions of a gas turbine is deficient are provided. The amplitude of measurements from the sensor may be monitored in different frequency ranges in order to detect certain abnormal conditions of the gas turbine that require attention by the control system in one frequency range, and also, concurrently and/or separately, detect a sensor deficiency in another frequency range prior to actual failure of the sensor, at which time the failure may otherwise be noticeable in the first frequency range. This permits better detection of deficient sensors during operation of the gas turbine.
