Abstract
Abstract A method for defining which parts of a combined cycle gas turbine (CCGT) power plant are responsible for performance deviations is presented. When the overall performances deviate from their baseline values, application of the method allows the determination of the component(s) of the plant, responsible for this deviation. It is shown that simple differentiation approaches may lead to erroneous conclusions, because they do not reveal the nature of deviations for individual components. Contributions of individual components are then assessed by separating deviations due to permanent changes and deviations due to change of operating conditions. A generalized formulation is presented together with the way of implementing it. Test cases are given, to make clearer the ideas put forward in the proposed method.
