Hi All,
We are currently running a frame 9e dual fuel gas turbine (as originally designed) with diesel fuel only. Although the turbine is designed for both gas fuel and diesel operation, it has never run in gas fuel due to unavailability of gas.
Currently we are looking forward to receiving gas...

Hi All,
We are experiencing a high vibration trip from Brg #2 seismic prob during the combustion mode changeover from lean lean to Premix. So far we have experience couple of trips and the vibration value goes up as high of 27mm/s to 35mm/s and at around 60MW. It does not reach trip limit all...
