I need to quantify performance improvement in a Gas turbine (Frame 9) for replacement of 1) Compressor rotor and 2) HGP components separately. A pre shutdown performance test of the GT was carried out after an offline water wash and data were recorded. Similarly, post overhaul test is conducted and data is recorded, but the OEM is not providing separate quantification of performance improvement, mainly in heat rate due to rotor replacement and HGP componenent replacement. We had entered into a performance guarantee from OEM for HGP component replacement and would like to assess performance improvement exclusively due to replacement of HGP components.
Can experts suggest methods which can be employed for such case? Thanks !
