Thanks all for your suggestion. The problem I am facing is for some of the Avon Engines I see that the bearing temperature is 285.3 Deg C. I have told the site engineer that there is a scalling issue with the bearing and they are not ready to acknowledge it. I do not know how to tell them...

Performance monitoring of machines No process monitoring, no emmission monitoring

Greetings, We only monitor this bearing. We do not know the make of it. I guess the bearing type is " Hydrodynamic Bearing with tilting pad" Hope this was usefull. CAE MANIAC

Hello ALl, Could you experienced people tell me which are good books for Performance MOnitoring for a GT or Turbo Machinary. I have come accross books that have dedicated couple of pages for Performance Monitoring. I am looking for a book thats complete. I have been hired to do Performance...

Hello All, What is the maximum temperature a gas generator bearing can withstand. I believe that the gas generator bearing is for a Rolls-Royce Avon engine for industrial engine. CAE MANIAC

The GT manufacturers are not ackn. this issue...s we have to find a solution by our self. I am tryling to get more data on Low NOX system.

After how many days of GT operation can we start detecting Exhaust Temperature Spread

We see that in our turbine which is running at 100 % load suddenly switches to lean-lean mode ( 20-40 % load ). Have any body seen this type of issue, or waht are the sensors that are needed to look into to diagnos this issue. thanks

there is a software used by GE to monitor their GT and ST. Its called as CCAP or ICAS.

Hello Go for "bending element" i thnk that could help. regards

Hello I think its due to under constraints( i.e u need to provide more constraints).Go for a shell element . You could get over this problem

Hello, I presume it is a Contact analysis problem.Another method of creating a rigid body is constrain it in all the the avialable dof and insted of it hitting the body let the body hit it.If possible set the density and poissions ratio of the body abnormally high. Regards, caemaniac

Hello Solution to your question 1) Torque as T= Force* Distance from center.Divide this force by 2 and apply it as a couple ie 2 force same in magnitude but opposite in direction at two point on the outer circumference. 2) Thrust Convert Thrust into pressure and apply it over a particular...

Hello, If you are profecient with software ansys.Could you please help me debug my code for ansys verification case 229 ie friction heating.One of the errors that I am receiving is large deformation not included or so.But i had switched it to Large deformation transient analysis. PLease help...
