Abstract
A dynamic model was developed for longterm simulation of a heavy duty gas turbine The model includes the essential control algorithm of the gas turbine as well as the most common outputs and other important intermediate variables Control algorithm details such as wind up protection and load limiter algorithm which have large effect on gas turbine transient behavior are included The model parameters are identified by applying genetic algorithm and least squares algorithm on regular operational data from a real plant to better match the model response to the real plant The simulation results have been validated with real plant data and shown to have valid accuracy for many engineering applicationsSaeed Bahrami received the BSc from K N Toosi University of Technology Tehran Iran and the MSc from Amikabir University of Technology Tehran Iran in 2006 and 2009 respectively He is currently working toward the PhD in Mechanical Engineering His research interests include modeling and control of dynamical systems with focus on energy systems power plants and combustion enginesAli Ghaffari received the BSc MSc and PhD all in Mechanical Engineering from Sharif University of Technology Georgia Institute of Technology and University of California at Berkeley in 1971 1974 and 1978 respectively Since 1989 he has been with the department of Mechanical Engineering of K N Toosi University of Technology His research is mainly focused on modeling and control of dynamic systemsSeyed Hossein Sadati is an assistant professor in the Mechanical Engineering Dept at KN Toosi University of Technology Tehran Iran He received his MS in 1986 in engineering mechanics from Iowa State University Iowa USA and his PhD in 1993 in aerospace engineering from the university of Arizona Tucson Arizona USA His research interests are dynamic and control systems vibrations and artificial neural networksMarcus Thern is an associate professor in the Dept of Energy Sciences at Lund University Sweden He received his MS in 2001 and his PhD in 2005 in thermal power engineering His research mainly focuses on modeling of thermal power plants and humid air turbines
