What will I learn from this course?
This course offers a firm understanding of the basic maintenance
requirements of all types of GE heavy duty gas turbines and
their auxiliary support systems. This course does not include
any discussions of generators.
The course is designed for those persons with no or limited
knowledge of gas turbines.
The objective of this course is to give participants an understanding
of basic gas turbine component construction and maintenance
procedures as well as a fundamental knowledge of the auxiliary
systems function and preventative maintenance requirements.
This fundamental knowledge will allow participants to approach
maintenance activities with confidence.
Emphasis is placed on the following areas:
- Basic gas turbine operating cycle
- Review of gas turbine major components, equipment arrangements
and associated maintenance requirements of each section of
the turbine.
- Turbine operations and the affect on maintenance intervals
- Purpose, function and routine preventative maintenance
of the various turbine support systems such as the lubricating
oil, hydraulic, variable inlet guide vanes and fuels
- A review of standard practices, tooling and parts needed
to successfully conduct inspections
- How to source information in the GE Gas Turbine Service
Manuals
This course consists of classroom lectures and visits to
the gas turbine manufacturing and assembly areas at our
facility in Greenville, South Carolina USA.
Who should attend?
