Alarm setting = 0.5 inches / sec
Trip setting = 1.0 inches / sec
Total System is Tested for Integrity during
Turbine Shut Down by Mark IV / V Panel

Combustion Monitoring
Exhaust Temperature Spreads are the
Result of Uneven Combustion in all the
Combustion Chambers
Combustion Monitoring is Built in Mark
IV/V
Combustion Monitoring is Enabled after
Machine Reaches FSNL
Exhaust Spread Calculations
Actual Spread
))TTXSP1 : Highest - Lowest TC
))TTXSP2 : Highest - 2 nd Lowest TC
))TTXSP3 : Highest - 3 rd Lowest TC
Allowable Spread ( TTXSPL )
= 0.145 TTXC - 0.08 CTDA + 30 deg F
During Dynamic Conditions the Allowable
Spread is Increased
Trip Conditions
1. TTXSP1 > TTXSPL and
TTXSP2 > 0.8 TTXSPL and
The two Lowest TCs are adjacent
2. TTXSP1 > 5 TTXSPL and
TTXSP2 > 0.8 TTXSPL and
The 2nd and 3rd Lowest TCs are Adjacent
3. All Spreads are > TTXSPL
Trip : Any of the above Conditions exists
for more than 9 Sec
