Method And System For Fluid Valve Leak Detection

View page
US Patent:
20110100096, May 5, 2011
Filed:
Nov 3, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/611228
Inventors:
Scott William Szepek - Glenville NY, US
Justin Varkey John - Cohoes NY, US
Daniel Joseph Peczka - Clifton Park NY, US
Bryan Edward Sweet - Valatie NY, US
Assignee:
GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY - Schenectady NY
International Classification:
G01M 3/28
US Classification:
73 405R
Abstract:
A method detection of leakage through at least one first valve includes admitting an amount of fluid into a first control volume in operable communication with the at least one first valve, thereby pressurizing the first control volume. The first control volume is isolated and a rate of change of pressure in a second control volume in operable communication with the at least one first valve is measured. A system for detecting leakage across at least one first valve includes a first control volume receptive of an amount of fluid and a second control volume in flow communication with the first control volume. At least one first valve is located between the first control volume and the second control volume, and a rate of change in pressure in the second control volume indicates a rate of leakage through the at least one first valve.

US Patent:
20110257864, Oct 20, 2011
Filed:
Apr 15, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/761029
Inventors:
Justin V. John - Schenectady NY, US
Nirm Velumylum Nirmalan - Niskayuna NY, US
John Charles Intile - Greenville SC, US
Scott William Szepek - Schenectady NY, US
Daniel Joseph Peczka - Schenectady NY, US
Bradley Steven Carey - Greenville SC, US
Assignee:
GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY - Schenectady NY
International Classification:
F02C 9/00
US Classification:
701100, 60779, 60 39091
Abstract:
Certain embodiments of the invention may include systems, methods, and apparatus for detecting failure in gas turbine hardware. According to an example embodiment of the invention, a method for detecting a failure in a gas turbine is provided. The method can include monitoring a parameter associated with the turbine, wherein the monitored parameter comprises at least one turbine bucket temperature, detecting an event associated with operation of the turbine, wherein the event is based at least in part on the monitored parameter, and initiating shutdown of the turbine upon detection of the event wherein the monitored parameter is above a predetermined value for at least a predetermined time duration.
