Gas Turbine Condition Monitoring Using Acoustic Emission Signals
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Acoustic emission (AE) signals are recognized as complementary measures for detecting incipient faults and condition monitoring in rotary machinery due to their containment of sources of potential fault energy. However, determining the potential sources of faults cannot be easily realized due to the non-stationarity of AE signals. Available techniques that are capable of evoking instantaneous characteristics of a particular AE signal cannot optimally perform in a sense that there is no guarantee that these characteristics (hereinafter referred to as the “features”) remain constant when another AE signal is obtained from the system, albeit operating under the same machine condition at a different time instant. This paper provides a theoretical framework for developing a highly reliable classification and detection methodology for gas turbine condition monitoring based on AE signals. Mathematical results obtained in this paper are evaluated and validated by using actual gas turbines that are operating in power generating plants, to demonstrate the practicality and simplicity of our methodologies. Emphasis is given to acoustic emissions of similar brand and sized gas turbine turbomachinery under different health conditions and/or aging characteristics.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
