Systems and methods for determining risk of operating a turbomachine

Last updated:

Abstract:

Systems and methods for determining risk to operating a turbomachine are provided. According to one embodiment of the disclosure, a method may include receiving historical risk profile data associated with a fleet of turbomachines by at least one processor from a repository. The method can also include receiving ambient conditions of an environment in which a turbomachine is to be operated. Based at least in part on the historical risk profile data and in view of the ambient conditions, at least one risk threshold for at least one known operating profile can be developed. The method may continue with determining that the at least one risk threshold for the at least one known operating profile is reached. Based at least in part on a determination that the at least one risk threshold is reached, a mitigating action associated with the turbomachine can be taken.
