Malfunction Diagnosis of the GTCC System under All Operating Conditions Based on Exergy Analysis

After long-term operation,the performance of components in the GTCC system deteriorates and requires timely maintenance.Due to the inability to directly measure the degree of component malfunction,it is necessary to use advanced exergy analysis diagnosis methods to characterize the components’health condition(degree of malfunction)through operation data of the GTCC system.The dissipative temperature is used to describe the degree of malfunction of different components in the GTCC system,and an advanced exergy analysis diagnostic method is used to establish a database of overall operating condition component malfunctions in theGTCC system.Ebsilon software is used to simulate the critical parameters of the malfunctions of the GTCC system components and to obtain the changes in the dissipative temperature of different components.Meanwhile,the fuel consumption and economic changes of the GTCC system on a characteristic power supply day under health and malfunction conditions are analyzed.Finally,the effects of maintenance costs,electricity,and gas prices on maintenance expenses and profits are analyzed.The results show that the GTCC system maintenance profit is 6.07$/MWh,while the GTCC system maintenance expense is 5.83$/MWh.Compared with the planned maintenancemode,the malfunction maintenance mode saves 0.24$/MWh.Simultaneously,the maintenance coefficient of GTCC should be adjusted under different malfunctions to obtain a more accurate maintenance period.

Automatic Correcting Control Method of RMG Based on Changeable Transducer Connection Form

By analyzing causes, damages and popular solutions for gnawing rail phenomenon of Rail-Mounted Gantry （shorted for RMG）, this article puts forward a kind of automatic correcting control system, the system can change between two transducer connection forms, and as a result, can prevent or decrease gnawing rail problem to a great extent. We present principles of correcting obliquity, sideward displacement of gantry frame and principles of malfunction diagnosis and some important schematic diagrams. The most significant feature of our system is that we can change transducers＇ connection form to respective or cross driving mode according to the extent of obliquity and sideward displacement of gantry frame, which make full use of both modes＇ advantages. As a result, the system not only can minish gnawing rail phenomenon, diagnose causes of gnawing rail and give an corresponding alarm, but also, in cross connection driving mode, has an unique capacity of preventing gnawing rail phenomenon utilizing its own characteristics under cross connection mode and gantry frame＇s rigidity.
