  • Control system and method for determining contaminant loading of turbine blades
    Patent number: 11098724
    Abstract: A control system and method utilizing one or more processors that are configured to determine contaminant loading of blades of a turbomachinery compressor based on one or more environmental conditions to which the turbomachinery compressor is exposed and one or more atmospheric air inlet conditions of the turbomachinery compressor. The one or more processors then determine a corrosion contaminant concentration on the blades of the turbomachinery compressor based on the contaminant loading that is determined and determine an upper limit on or a distribution of potential corrosion of the blades of the turbomachinery based on the corrosion contaminant concentration, at least one of the environmental conditions to which the turbomachinery compressor is exposed, and the corrosion contaminant concentration that is determined.
