Patent CA-2371694-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DEHLSEN JAMES G P
IPC: F03D11/02
Filed: 2000-04-27
Abstract: L'invention concerne des ensembles de transmission pour turbines de centrales éoliennes et marémotrices à couple élevé et à faible vitesse de rotation. Ce type de turbine comprend une grande roue solaire rotative montée sur un arbre d'entrée, dont la périphérie est équipée d'ensembles de transmission fixes. Les dents d'engrenage de la roue solaire s'engrènent par rotation dans les dents des les pignons, provoquant ainsi leur rotation et transmettant de la puissance à chacun des sous-ensembles de transmission. Dans une variante, les ensembles de transmission, montés sur broche sur tout le pourtour d'un arbre d'entrée principal, tournent en même temps que ledit arbre. Chaque arbre d'entrée reliant les boîtes d'engrenage des sous-ensembles est pourvu d'un pignon. A mesure que l'arbre d'entrée principal tourne, les générateurs, les boîtes d'engrenage et les pignons tournent, provoquant ainsi le déplacement des pignons à l'intérieur d'une couronne dentée fixe. La réduction et la répartition du couple est similaire à celle obtenue dans la variante à roue solaire. Dans ladite configuration en roue solaire, chacun des sous-ensembles de transmission est fixe, ce qui permet de réduire les contraintes causées par la rotation.

Title: Diagnostic method and system for turbine engines
Inventor: LETHANDER CHARLES ERIC
IPC: G01M15/00
Filed: 2002-08-15
Abstract: A method and system for evaluating whether faults detected during the testing of a gas turbine engine are related to the performance problems of the engine or to some other abnormality unrelated to engine performance. One performance parameter of the engine is evaluated under one performance condition to generate a first set of current engine data that is then compared to a first set of prior engine data to determine if there is an abnormality. If one is detected, this performance parameter is then evaluated under at least two different performance conditions to generate a second set of current engine data that is compared to a second set of prior engine data to determine if there is an abnormality. If one is detected, the abnormality is evaluated to see if the fault is unrelated to the performance of the engine. If one is not detected, this performance parameter is evaluated relative to at least one other performance parameter to generate a third set of current engine data that is compared to a third set of prior engine data to determine if there is an abnormality. If one is detected after this comparison of the third set of current to prior engine data, the abnormality is then evaluated to see if it is unrelated to engine performance. If one is not detected, the abnormality is then evaluated to determine if the fault is related to engine performance.
