If generator breaker opens at full load, (due to a disturbance on the grid, for example) will the GT typically avoid an over speed trip and instead reduce fuel fast enough to operate at full speed no load?
Specifically am interested in people's experience with an F7A operating on natural gas.
Have been discussing the scenario described above with colleagues. People have different opinions and experiences regarding the scenario when an F7A is at full load and the generator breaker opens, say due to a disturbance on the grid. Discussion has centered around whether the controls would reduce fuel fast enough to avoid an overspeed trip and allow the unit to continue operating at FSNL. And if experience indicates different responses with a Mark VI controller and control algorithms from other vendors?
Thought I would open the discussion to a larger and more experienced audience.
Thanks.
