Please what are the possible causes of compressor inlet pressure high reading on GE mark vi frame 9e

 

@Ginseng,

I'm guessing the machine control system uses ARES or MBC (Adaptive Real-time Engine Simulation, or Model-Based Control) and there's some issue with one or more sensors on the axial compressor inlet and possibly exhaust.

I'm also guessing that there are Diagnostic Alarms indicating which sensors/input channels are not working.

Unfortunately, ARES/MBC is not very well-documented so you're probably going to need to work with the packager/OEM to get help with the issue.

I'm also guessing the turbine control system is a Mark* VIe or some Mark* VIe-variant of what was originally a Mark* VI. (Isn't this control system naming stuff loads of fun???)

Finally, the GE division that has responsibility for Frame 9 heavy duty gas turbines is based in Belfort, France. They are most likely where the best advice and information will come from.

We don't have enough information to be of any further help. It would be great if you could write back to let us know what the cause was determined to be and how the issue(s) was(were) resolved. Thanks!

Blessed day!
