Power system failures directly impact the processes
in any industry. One approach to avoiding such failures is to
identify a potential fault before it occurs and take the
appropriate corrective actions. The objective is to design a
fault detection and diagnosis system (FDDS) that allows
identifying incipient faults at an early stage. To accomplish
this, the following steps were taken in the investigation:
turbogenerator input/process/output (I/P/O) diagrams, failure
history, calculated risk analysis, root-cause analysis and
general system design.
Our case study was developed on condensate-type
steam turbines with simple
