Abstract

Engine component and transducer degradation/fault diagnosis, are analyzed. The analysis is performed using an aero-thermodynamic nonlinear inverse jet-engine model while using data acquired during transient engine operation. A shortened inverse jet-engine model (without one or more engine component maps) was recently proposed by the authors for real-time simulations and for fast evaluation of engine component maps. The algorithm for the engine component’s fault diagnosis is significantly simplified using shortened inverse engine models. A diagnostic example of combined faults of a single transducer and a single engine component for a single spool jet engine is described using different combinations of shortened inverse jet engine models. In the present paper it is assumed that only a single transducer (out of the seven transducers) and /or a single engine component (compressor or turbine) fault could be present in the engine at a given time.
