چکیده
This report contains the work of the capstone design team, assigned to design a comprehensive, cost effective, monitoring system for gas turbine engines. The main objective of the design was to produce a system capable of detecting and recording only special conditions or events. As a sample engine, the SR-30 gas turbine was used. A simulation of the engine using GSP software provided a model. The model was used to determine the healthy operation of the engine. The integration of a developed algorithm has enabled the system to be used for aerodynamic component monitoring, as well as, mechanical systems monitoring.
