  • Patent number: 10107716
    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure relate to performance testing of a gas turbine. In one embodiment, a gas turbine performance testing system can include a server, a transducer system, a signal converter, and an automated gas chromatograph. The transducer system acquires one or more functional parameters of the gas turbine and the signal converter converts the functional parameters acquired by the transducer system to gas turbine operational data. The automated gas chromatograph automatically analyzes a test sample of a natural gas that is used to operate the gas turbine. The gas turbine operational data generated by the signal converter and the analysis information obtained from the test sample are provided to the server for propagating via a communication network, to a client computer where the gas turbine operational data and the analysis information can be used to obtain a gas turbine performance test result.

  • Patent number: 8384266
    Abstract: A brush wear detector system for a dynamoelectric machine is provided. The brush wear detector system includes a brush holder, and at least one brush located within the brush holder. At least one spring is in contact with the brush and the spring operates to force the brush against an electrically conductive member of the dynamoelectric machine. A wireless sensor is configured to detect when a predetermined amount of wear has occurred to the at least one brush, and is also configured to identify the brush having the predetermined amount of wear. The wireless sensor is attached to the at least one brush.
