Training Gas Turbine Failure Analysis

Description Failure investigations are tough rigorous challenges form the best in engineering. This course will teach delegates the range of thinking and subjects, which need to be considered in driving to find the real root cause of a failure. The class will be based around some of the most difficult challenges faced by the professions in the industry and challenge the analytical and creative ability of the best students. Participant Reliability Engineer Rotating Mechanical Engineer Maintenance Engineer Electrical Engineer Instrument Engineer Course Outline • How a Gas Turbines works, flows, controls, combustors, noise. • The importance of careful recording and how to record. • Misinformation and how it occures • Fishbone, RCA, Ishikawa • Using Specialist expertise in GT Failure investigations: mellurgy, noise, vibration, controls • When and how to use them in validation and discovery of evidence • How to break metal: fatigue, creep, fracture, vibration • The differences, and why its vital to understanding failures • Thermal Fatigue - What is it, how does it arrive and how leads to cracking and failure. •...
