Dear Experts,
My plant is a single shaft combined cycle unit, and it is a GE 9FA machine. noticed that the Turbine Exhaust Pressure has increased from 1.027barg to 1.037barg recently. The question here is what is the possible causes and the effects from the incremental turbine exhaust pressure? Unit will be scheduled for Hot Gas Path Inspection next year meaning the unit is running without any major outage while this "phenomena" rising. There is also trip logic if this turbine exhaust pressure exceed its limit. Really appreciate if there is someone to explain the importants of this turbine exhaust pressure to me for my understanding.
many thanks and regards
Fai
