Solar energy has become one of the most important renewable energies in the world. With the increasing installation of power plants in the world, the supervision and diagnosis of photovoltaic systems have become an important challenge with the increased occurrence of various internal and external faults. Indeed, this work proposes a new solar power plant diagnosis based on the artificial neural network approach. The developed model was to improve the performance and reliability of the power plant located in Tamanrasset, Algeria, which is subjected to varying weather conditions in terms of radiation and ambient temperature. By using the real data collected from the studied system, this approach allow to increase electricity production and address any issues that may arise quickly, ensuring uninterrupted power supply for the region. Neural networks have shown interesting results with high accuracy. This fault diagnosis approach allows to determine the time of occurrence of a fault affecting the examined PV system. Also, allow an early detection of failures and degradation of the system, which contributes to improving the productivity of this photovoltaic installation. With a significant reduction in the time needed to repair the damage caused by these faults and improve the reliability and continuity of the electrical energy production service.
Parametric identification approaches play a crucial role in the control and monitoring of industrial systems. They facilitate the identification of system variables and enable the prediction of their evolution based on the input-output relationship. In this study, we employ the ARMAX approach to accurately predict the dynamic vibratory behavior of MS5002B gas turbine bearings. By utilizing real input-output data obtained from their operation, this approach effectively captures the vibration characteristics of the bearings. Additionally, the ARMAX technique serves as a valuable diagnostic tool for the bearings, enhancing the quality of identification of turbine variables. This enables continuous monitoring of the bearings and real-time prediction of their behavior. Furthermore, the ARMAX approach facilitates the detection of all potential vibration patterns that may occur in the bearings, with monitoring thresholds established by the methodology. Consequently, this enhances the availability of the bearings and reduces turbine downtime. The efficacy of the proposed ARMAX approach is demonstrated through comprehensive results obtained in this study. Robustness tests are conducted, comparing the real behavior observed through various probes with the reference model, thereby validating the approach.
Responding to the needs of quality and robustness of analysis and management of degradation of equipment, to increase their life cycle and to expand these facilities to become more and more sophisticated and agronomic. This work proposes a contribution to increase the survival of a gas turbine, installed in a gascompression plant, with a comparative study between the two-parameter Weibull distribution. A new modified Weibull distribution was proposed also to reduce the risk of occurrence of failure in this rotating machine. A Statistical analysis and validation on the synthesis of turbine's reliability data and failures were considered, with a particular focus on the use of this data to increase the availability of this type of machine. So, developing a maintenance plan based on their reliability indices for scheduled inspections.
The use of new technologies in modern industry improves productivity but induces complexity in the industrial system. This complexity makes it vulnerable to faults, which requires significant expense in terms of safety, reliability and availability. Indeed, a diagnostic operation is essential for the operational safety and availability of these industrial systems. This diagnostic operation is based on two important functions which are the detection and localization of anomalies, which consists to verifying the consistency of the data taken in real time from the installation with a reliable model, to ensure the good performance of the monitoring system. Hence, the diagnosis of gas turbines is a main component for making maintenance decisions for this type of machine. In this paper, the faults detection approach based on fuzzy logic is applied for the vibrations monitoring of a gas turbine, in order to monitor their operating state by including the detection and occurrence of vibration faults, thus using determined fault indicators based on the input/output variables of the examined gas turbine. In this work, the investigation results of fuzzy fault detection approach applied on gas turbine vibration are presented, based on the actual data recorded in the different gas turbine operating modes. However, analysis of the defect detection results was performed in order to determine the influence of these vibration defects on the deferent operating modes of the examined machine. This makes it possible to find the causes of failures and then to deduce the actions to follow the operational safety of the examined turbine.
