Upon completion of this course, participants will have the knowledge and skills to:
- Apply fundamental gas turbine principles to real-world operational and maintenance challenges.
- Execute safe and professional startup, shutdown, and emergency procedures.
- Identify common operational issues and perform efficient, systematic troubleshooting to minimize downtime.
- Implement proactive maintenance and inspection techniques to maximize asset reliability and service life.
- Adhere to the highest standards of safety and environmental compliance in all operational activities.
Course Outline (Content):
- Gas Turbine Fundamentals & System Components:
- We'll establish a solid foundation by exploring the core principles of gas turbine technology, including thermodynamics and aeromechanics. This module provides a detailed look at the function and interaction of each major component—from the compressor and combustor to the turbine and auxiliary systems—to build a holistic understanding of the unit.
- Operational Procedures & Performance Monitoring:
- This section provides practical, step-by-step guidance on all aspects of operation. Participants will learn how to perform pre-startup checks, execute controlled startup and shutdown sequences, and effectively monitor performance data to identify and address anomalies before they escalate.
- Proactive Maintenance, Inspections & Tools:
- Moving beyond reactive fixes, we'll focus on a proactive maintenance philosophy. You'll learn advanced inspection techniques, including the use of borescope technology and vibration analysis. The module also covers the development of robust maintenance schedules to prevent failures and extend the lifespan of your turbines.
- Systematic Troubleshooting & Fault Diagnosis:
- We'll tackle the inevitable challenges of operation by providing a structured approach to problem-solving. Through case studies and practical scenarios, participants will learn how to accurately diagnose issues—from sensor faults to combustion instability—and implement corrective actions with confidence and speed.
- Safety, Compliance & Risk Management:
- A non-negotiable aspect of this course is safety. We will cover critical safety protocols, including LOTO (Lockout/Tagout) procedures, fire prevention, and handling hazardous materials. We also address key environmental regulations and best practices for sustainable operation.
Who Should Attend?
- Mechanical & Electrical Engineers seeking to enhance their practical, hands-on knowledge.
