Abstract: Sensor values indicative of operating parameters of a combustion system are received. An emission is determined, by at least a predictive model, based on at least the sensor values. The predictive model has been trained using at least a first set of data acquired from a measured emission and a second set of data determined using at least a physics model. Combustion system operating parameters are adjusted based on at least the determined emission.

Abstract: A system and method for monitoring the condition of a gear assembly analyzes a signal output by a vibration detector that is attached to the gear assembly. Each time that an amplitude of the signal output from the vibration detector exceeds a threshold value, the system assumes that a debris particle has passed between meshing parts of the gear assembly. The number of times that this occurs, and possibly the amplitude of the vibrations are analyzed to determine a condition of the gear assembly, and possibly a damage index. This system and method are particularly applicable to planetary gear arrangements where the vibration detector can be mounted on a fixed ring gear of the gear assembly, or a structure upon which the fixed ring gear is mounted.
