  • Control of power generation system by visually monitoring component during operation
    Patent number: 11506075
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure include a method for controlling a power generation system, the method including: detecting a heat distribution across a component of a power generation system from a thermal output of the component, during operation of the power generation system; calculating a projected heat distribution across the component based on a library of modeling data for the power generation system; calculating whether a difference between the heat distribution and the projected heat distribution exceeds a thermal threshold; adjusting the power generation system in response to the difference exceeding the predetermined threshold, wherein the adjusting includes modifying an operating setting of the power generation system.
    Type: Grant

  • CONTROL OF POWER GENERATION SYSTEM BY VISUALLY MONITORING VALVE DURING OPERATION
    Publication number: 20200409321
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure include a method for controlling a power generation system, the method including: detecting a gauge measurement of an operating parameter while visually monitoring a gauge of the power generation system during operation of the power generation system; calculating an expected value of the operating parameter based on a library of modeling data for the power generation system; calculating whether a difference between the gauge measurement of the operating parameter and the calculated expected value of the operating parameter exceeds a predetermined threshold; and adjusting the power generation system in response to the difference exceeding the predetermined threshold, wherein the adjusting includes one of calibrating the gauge or modifying an operating setting of the power generation system.
