Cooldown
Cooldown phase starts after flame loss detection and machine stop; it is the time period during which the
machine is cooled and the lube oil is provided using auxiliary pump or emergency pump (only if auxiliary
pump is damaged or the MKVIe is powered off).
Cooldown sequence is enabled by the MKVIe two seconds after loss of flame in combustion chamber
(L28FDZ software signal is false). This timer is started as soon as the shaft is detected at zero speed
(L14HR internal MKVIe software signal) and remains active for total cooldown duration of 10 hours.
Cooldown end is detected by software signal L62CD, generated by MKVIe logic after receiving the ZSL 300 (33HR1), HYDRAULIC RATCHET LIMIT SWITCH signal.

Auxiliary pump logic


Request during unit startup
During unit startup (L14HSX internal software signal is false), the auxiliary pump is started (with l4qaz
software command and XS -134 (4QA) hardwired signal to MCC) when the turbine start sequence is
activated (software signal L1Z is false). It continues to work until the shaft reaches minimum operative

speed that is 95% of rated speed (L14HSX is true). After that, the main mechanical lube oil pump
becomes sufficient to provide the needed oil pressure by itself.
Request during normal operation
When the shaft is above minimum operative speed, the auxiliary pump is started if the lube oil header
pressure is detected low by L63QA2L_W voted software signal (corresponding to PAL-308 alarm) and this
condition is verified for more then K63QALY software constant (typically 2.5 s)
Software alarm L52QA_ALM is generated upon auxiliary pump running detection operated by software
signal l52qa and hardwired signal XS -135 (52QA).

Stop during normal operation


If the pump was started during normal operation, it remains running also if starting conditions are reset,
due to the motor feedback latching the run command. The pump can be stopped manually by the operator
from the HMI (L43QAS_CPB command) or from MCC (motor feedback l52qa drops down).
Request during shutdown
After unit shutdown request, the auxiliary pump is started when the shaft speed decreases below the
minimum operative speed and keep on running till cooldown completion.
Manual control
If lube oil tank level is not low (L71QL_W software signal and LAL-301 alarm are not raised), auxiliary
pump can be manually started from the HMI with L43QA_CMD command. If manual manual operation is
de-selected, the pump returns under automatic control and can be stopped as described above.
Emergency pump logic
The emergency pump provides lube oil pressure in case of failure of auxiliary pump or during the
emergency cooldown. It is started by DCP after receiving XS -100 (4QE) signal.
The pump is then stopped if lube oil pressure is restored (L63QNX) or if the cooldown time is ended.

Lube oil alarms and trips


If lube oil header temperature (ltth1 software signal) is detected higher than threshold K26QA (typically
72C), software output L26QA_W and alarm L26QA_ALM, corresponding to TAH -305 alarm, are
generated.
If lube oil header temperature is detected higher than K26QT constant (80C) by trip logic, trip L26QT and
alarm L26QT_ALM (related to P&Id TAHH -305 alarm) are generated if unit is running (L4 =1).
If lube oil header pressure (software signal A63QA_W) is higher then the threshold K63QN (typically 1.4
barg), L63QN_W software signal is generated.
If lube oil header pressure is lower than the threshold K63QA2L (typically 1.2 barg), software output
L63QA2L_W and alarm L63QA2L_ALM is generated.
If lube oil header pressure is detected lower than K63QT threshold (typically 0.96 barg) by trip logic,
software output L63QT is generated. Also trip L63QTX and alarm L63QT_ALM (PALL-310 P&Id alarm)
are generated if unit is running (L4=1).
If lube oil filter differential pressure is detected higher than 1.7 bar (K63QQ1H threshold) by a63qq1
software signal for more than K63QQ1H_ALM (typically 1 s), software alarm L63QQ1H_ALM,
corresponding to PDAH-308, is generated
If lube oil tank level (a71qt software signal) is detected high, alarm LAH-301 and software alarm
L71QH_ALM are generated.
If lube oil tank level is detected low, software output L71QL_W and alarm L71QL_ALM, corresponding to
LAL-301, are generated.
If at least one bearing drain oil temperature is detected higher than its threshold, summarized software
alarm L30LOA_ALM is generated; the related P&Id alarms are TAH-311, TAH-312, TAH-313.

Heater cutout logic


Cutout conditions for lube oil heater on command auxiliary software signal (L4QTX) are listed below:
Lube oil tank level low (LAL-301)
Flame detected (L28FDX = 1)
Over-temperature detected by all lube oil tank heaters switches [l26qth1\ 2\3 &4 software signals; TSHH 300 (49QT-1), TSHH -301 (49QT-2), TSHH -302 (49QT-3), TSHH -303 (49QT-4) are hardwired signals].
Each heater command [l4qt1-4 software signals 4QT-1-4 are hardwired signals] can be also singularly
cutout if the associated switch [l26qth1\2\3 & 4; detects over-temperature and the lube oil tank level low
alarm is raised (LAL-301). In this condition, a single switch cutout command is repeated to the MCC
through one of the l4qt1\2\3 & 4_c software signals [contacts open on cutout].
If over-temperature is detected by at least one lube oil tank heater switch, L26QTH_ALM software alarm is
generated.
Heater control logic
If no cutout condition is active, the heater-on auxiliary signal L4QTX picks-up when the lube oil tank
temperature (software signal ltot generated by TE -307 (LT-OT-1) is detected lower than threshold K26QL
(typically 25C).
Then, L4QTX drops down when the oil temperature is detected moderate by the threshold K26QM
(typically 30C). Between the two thresholds, L4QTX can be manually dropped down also through a
dedicated HMI pushbutton L5QT_S_CPB.
If manual command is active (L43QT_CMD command from HMI), L4QTX can be picked-up and droppeddown manually using L5QT_R_CPB and L5QT_S_CPB HMI pushbuttons. Also, if manual operation is
active, L43QT_ALM software alarm is generated.
If not singularly cutout, each heater is turned on and off, according to L4QTX status, through MCC
commands signals 4QT-1-C, 4QT-2-C, 4QT-3-C & 4QT-4-C [l4qt1\2\3 & 4 software signals].
Alarms
If lube oil tank temperature is found below a third threshold K26QN (typically 20C), signal L26QN_W
drops down and software alarm L26QN_ALM, related to TAL-307 P&Id alarm, is generated.

SOFTWARE DESCRIPTION
Air cooling (3x50%) control sequence
The described sequence actuates three fans (main, auxiliary and stand-by); each fan is designed to
provide 50% of rated airflow.
Auxiliary fan selection
Auxiliary fan selection is done by HMI dedicated pushbutton through signal SC43QFC, normally when all
fans are stopped.
Main fan Start/Stop logic
The lube oil cooler main fan is started when flame is detected in combustion chamber (L28FDX=1).
The main fan is stopped K4QFCM (typically 120 minutes) after flameout (L28FDX=0).
o
<1>
Lube Oil Tank temperature should be greater Than K26QM (Typically 86 F )
Stand-by fan Start/Stop logic
Stand-by fan control is driven by LTTH1_W voted software signal, generated TE -305 A (LT-TH-1A) , TE 305 B (LT-TH-1B) , TE -305 C (LT-TH-1C) thermocouple outputs.
When the lube oil cooler main fan is running, the stand-by fan is started if the lube oil header temperature
LTTH1_W reaches the stand-by fan starting value K26QFCH.
The fan is then stopped if LTTH1_W value decreases below the stand-by stop value K26QFCL.
After its stop, the stand-by fan cant be restarted until K4QFCS_INH_R (typically 120s) time is elapsed.
Similarly, Stand-by stop is not permitted for K4QFCS_INH_S (typically 240s) from its start.

In case of failure of two out of the three lube oil header thermocouples, a backup start/stop logic is
provided: regardless of main fan state, the stand-by fan is started and then stopped when the failure
condition is no more detected.
The standby cooling fan can only be started during machine running or during the cooldown period.
Auxiliary fan Start/Stop logic
The lube oil cooler auxiliary fan is started when temperature high software alarm is generated (L26QA_W)
due to AAH-211, LTTH1_W signal high value (TAH-305) or to the above described thermocouples failure
condition.
When this high temperature alarm is reset, the auxiliary fan keeps on running and can be stopped
manually by the operator in front of the HMI (L5QFC13_S_CPB commands) or of the MCC.
If auxiliary fan is running, L52QFC_ALM software alarm is generated.
Lube Oil temperature control
The oil temperature control is accomplished by varying the oil flow through the cooler with the three way
valveTCV -306 (VTR-1) . This valve is regulated through an integrated IP converter by the MKVIe
temperature indication control; the reference temperature used for this control is the mean lube oil header
temperature LTTH1_W.
Cooler fans control sequence and changeover
Lube oil cooler high vibration, detected by VSH -200 (39QFC-1) , VSH -201 (39QFC-2) , VSH -202
(39QFC-3) (l39qfc13 software signals), is the cutout condition for the related fan (active in both automatic
and manual mode) and generates VAH-200, VAH-201 & VAH-202 alarm. This cutout condition is also
repeated to the MCC (l4qfc13_c software signals:XS -137 (4QFC-1-C) , XS -140 (4QFC-2-C) , XS -143
(4QFC-3-C) hardwired signals), in order to disable any possible start condition activation.
Every time the cooler fan motor is detected running by the feedback (l52qfc13), the cooler fan high
vibration alarm is inhibited for the time K52QFCZ (10s), by energizing the XY -200 (20QFC-1) , XY -201
(20QFC-2) , XY -202 (20QFC-3) remote reset (l4qfc13_inh software outputs).
The cooler fans start and stop according to the current main/stand-by/auxiliary state and their respective
start/stop logic.
While the auxiliary fan is selected manually by the operator, the main and the stand-by fans are selected
by internal changeover logic:
Auxiliary selection change cause main and stand-by change preserving cyclic order;
Main/stand-by are exchanged each time the stand-by fan is required to run (inversion of cyclic order);
If the running fan becomes the auxiliary or stand-by one and has to be stopped, its stop is delayed of 10
seconds;
The changeover doesn't activate auxiliary fan running alarm L52QFC_ALM;
If changeover is done when all fans are running or stopped, nothing changes except the selection.
Manual control
Every lube oil cooler fan can be controlled in manual mode. When manual mode is selected, each cooler
fan maintains its previous status and the summarized software alarm L43QFC_ALM is generated.

If cutout condition is not active, during startup the auxiliary pump starts when the turbine start sequence is
activated. It continues to operate until the HP shaft reaches minimum operating speed. From this point,
the main mechanical hydraulic oil pump will provide the necessary oil pressure.
Request during normal operation
When HP shaft is above minimum operating speed, if cutout condition is not active, the auxiliary pump
starts if one of the following condition is verified:
Hydraulic oil pressure detected low by pressure switch PT -324 (96HQ-1)
Process hydraulic oil request.
During normal operation when hydraulic pump start detected by XS -133 (52HQ) alarm is generated.
Stop during normal operation
If during normal operation the pump has been started, detected by by XS -133 (52HQ)the pump remains
running also when the starting condition is reset. It can be stopped manually by operator from HMI or
MCC.
Request during shutdown
If cutout condition is not active, when a normal shutdown occurs, the auxiliary pump is started when the
HP shaft decreases below the minimum operating speed. The pump will keep running till the master relay
is de-energized unless the pump is requested running from process.
Request during emergency shutdown (trip)
If emergency shutdown (trip) is detected, the hydraulic pump is not started. If the pump was already
running before the trip event (see request during normal operation), the pump stops typically 10s after the
trip.
Manual control
If cutout condition is not active, auxiliary pump can be manually started. If manual operation is deselected,
the pump returns to automatic control.
Alarms logic
If hydraulic oil pressure is detected low by PT -324 (96HQ-1)for more then typically 3s, alarm is generated
if following conditions are all verified:
Above crank speed
After start passed and before shutdown
Alarm is also disabled 1.5s after that operative speed is reached to account for the stop of auxiliary pump.
If hydraulic oil filter differential pressure is detected high by PDT -323 (96HF-1) .for more then typically 1s,
alarm is generated.

SOFTWARE DESCRIPTION
Starting system provides necessary torque to drive the gas turbine to its self-sustaining speed, at which
the energy produced by the HP turbine expansion equals the energy required by the compression.
The system consists of the AC three phase electric motor 88CR-1, a torque converter and a Self
Synchronizing Starting (SSS) clutch.
Torque converter, connected between electric motor and turbine HP shaft through the SSS clutch, is
provided to modify torque features of the motor to fit the starting requirements.
The variable orifice assembly FCV -330 (20TU) is installed on the torque converter drain. The torque
converter drain flow can be modified, through the solenoid valve FCV -330 (20TU), to match the
cranking/firing speed. The oil flow is also adjustable through a manual variable orifice for calibration
purposes.
The clutch limit switch ZSL -304 (33CS-1) is installed in order to detect the engaged status.
Hydraulic ratchet interface logic
When the unit is ready to crank, hydraulic ratchet system energizes the starting clutch solenoid. If the
starting clutch is not detected engaged in 10 seconds by ZSL -304 (33CS-1), alarm is generated.
The turbine shaft breakaway is helped by hydraulic ratchet system that is stopped as soon as shaft
moves.

Torque converter drain valve FCV -330 (20TU) ) control sequence


Before shaft breakaway the valve is closed to maximize the torque during breakaway phase.
After shaft breakaway, when the minimum cranking speed is achieved, the torque converter oil drain valve
is opened (energized), in order to reduce the torque and to maintain the specified speed to accomplish
purge, ignition and warm-up steps. The valve will be closed again after warm-up step completes, in order
to have the maximum torque for accelerating phase.

Cranking speed logic


After shaft break away, when the minimum cranking speed is achieved, the torque converter oil drain
valve is opened, in order to reduce the torque and to maintain the specified speed to accomplish purge,
ignition and warm-up steps. Signal OPENING is enabled by L4 to avoid the opening of the valve during
coastdown. The valve will be closed again after warm-up step completes, in order to have the maximum
torque for accelerating phase.
If motor feedbackXS -129 (52CR) .or clutch engaged limit switch ZSL -304 (33CS-1) signals are lost, trip
and alarm are generated. Alarm and trip are enabled below accelerating speed and are disabled above
the operative speed and in case of trip.

Bog down detection


After 2s pick up delayed flame detection, if speed decreases below a threshold of 5% for more than 1 s,
trip and alarm are generated. This trip is active until the HP shaft speed is below the minimum operative
speed and it is not active in case of shutdown or trip.

Electric motor (88CR-1) turn-off logic


After warm-up sequence, unit accelerates to full speed. At approx. 5060% of rating speed, the inversion
of the torque on starting clutch causes its mechanical disengagement (the turbine can sustain itself). This
condition is detected by ZSL -304 (33CS-1) limit switch signal and the starting electric motor is turned off.
The motor is anyway turned off if HP shaft speed is above self-sustaining speed (60%).
Motor turn-off is also achieved if one of the following conditions is verified:
Electric motor system trip;
unit trip (L4)
Unit shutdown (L94X)

SOFTWARE DESCRIPTION
The hydraulic ratchet system provides:
breakaway torque to the unit shaft during unit startup;
slow rotations during unit cool down in order to avoid shaft bowing due to non-uniform heat radiation from
turbine casings combined with rotor weight;
slow rotations during long-term storage periods.
The sequence described is used to build ratchet pump 88HR command XS -104 (4HR) and starting
clutch engage valve open command FV -326 (20HR-1) .The two ratcheting commands are generated at
the same time by the same logic. The clutch engaged is detected by limit switch ZSL -304 (33CS-1) signal
that cause the cranking motor to start.
Ratcheting commands permissive
Electric cranking motor stopped delayed XS -129 (52CR)
Ratcheting commands cutout conditions
Lube oil pressure low voting trip logic
HP zero speed detected for more than 60s.
HP shaft control speed signal loss
HP shaft above crank speed
Unit start-up ratcheting sequence
During the unit starting sequence, if no cutout and all permissive conditions verified, the ratcheting begin
as soon as the ready to crank is detected (L3ARC). It continues to operate until the HP shaft zero speed is
detected (L14HR).
Ratcheting cycles during cooldown
During a stop sequence, the ratchet pump is started 60 seconds after the HP shaft is detected at zero
speed; independently from the state of limit switch ZSL -304 (33CS-1) the pump remains running and
rotating the shaft until the ZSL -304 (33CS-1)limit switch drop down delayed by 2s is detected. At this point
the pump is kept stopped for 180 s, and then the cycle is repeated. Cooldown ratcheting cycles are
stopped when cooldown sequence is completed

Manual ratcheting (Jogging)


If HP shaft is below cranking speed the ratcheting cycle can be started manually (jogging) by the local
push-button mounted on the ratchet pump skid HS -300 (43HR) or by HMI push button. The local push
button has to be closed for more then 2 s to rise the starting jogging command.

SOFTWARE DESCRIPTION
Alarms and Shutdown logic
There are two single element thermocouples (TC) in each measurement section to monitor the
wheelspace temperatures.
If the average temperature of TCs located in one measurement section exceeds the related alarm level
for more than 10s, a common software alarm L30WSA2_ALM is generated. This alarm corresponds to
TAH-208, TAH-209, TAH-213, TAH-214 P&Id alarms.
If this common alarm remains active for more than 24 hours, L30WSA4_ALM software alarm signal is
generated and shutdown sequence is started (L30WSA_SD software shutdown request).
If the average temperature exceeds the shutdown level for more than 10s, a common software alarm
L30WSA3_ALM (corresponding to TAHH-208, TAHH-209, TAHH-213, TAHH-214 P&Id alarms) is
generated and the shutdown sequence is immediately activated (L30WSA_SD).
For the first hour of operation after the end of starting sequence (L3 is true), WSKALM9 constant (21C) is
added to both alarm and shutdown levels to avoid shutdown due to a transient thermal distribution.
Instrumentation fault logic
Outputs from the two thermocouples located in a same measurement section are compared against each
other. If they differ by more than WSKALM8 constant (65.5C), the high spread software alarm
L30WSA1_ALM is generated and the maximum temperature value is considered for control functions.
A thermocouple signal is detected faulty when at least one of the following conditions are verified:
Thermocouple output is out of range (-26.5C, 649C);
Signal fault detected by hardware diagnostic.
If a thermocouple signal is detected faulty, its value is discarded and temperature value is given by the
other thermocouple on the same section.
If two thermocouple signals on the same section are faulty for more then 10s, alarm signal
L30WSAF_ALM is generated and shutdown sequence is started (L30WSA_SD).
Water Wash Permissive
All of the average wheelspace temperature values are compared against each other and the highest value
is selected. This value is then compared to K69TWW constant (149C), to provide water wash permissive
signal (L69TWW).

SOFTWARE DESCRIPTION
Alarm and trip logic
If the signal coming from one of the four sensors exceeds its alarm level for more then LK39ATD (typically
5s), software common alarm L39VA_ALM is generated (VAH-209, VAH-210 in the P&Id).
If a sensor signal reaches its trip level and maintains this value for more than LK39TTD (typically 0.5s)
while a second sensor value is above alarm level, trip L39VT and alarm L39VT_ALM are generated
(VAHH-209, VAHH-210 P&Id alarms).
Trip signal L39VT is latched and can be reset with master reset command from the HMI.
If the difference between the two signals of a pair of sensors is higher than the threshold LK39DIFF for
more than LK39DFTDT (typically 0.5s), software alarm L39VDIFF_ALM is generated.
Instrumentation fault and disable logic
Sensor readings can be faulty, detected by hardware diagnostic, or disabled, by forcing to 0 the enable
input.
If at least one sensor fault is detected for more than LK39FTD time (typically 500ms), alarm L39VF_ALM
is generated.
If at least one sensor is disabled, alarm L39VD1_ALM is generated.
When two or more sensors are disabled or detected above alarm threshold, if at least one enabled sensor
reaches the trip level for more than LK39TTD (typically .5s), trip L39VT and alarm L39VT_ALM are
generated.
If three sensors are faulty or disabled, inhibit to start signal L39VD3 is generated. Also, L39VD3_ALM
alarm is generated if master protective signal L4 is low (starting condition).
If two paired sensors are faulty or disabled, L39VD2 shutdown signal and L39VD2_ALM alarm are
generated.

Main fan is then stopped:
K4BTON (typically 120 min) after flameout (L28FDX is false).
If Auxiliary fan is started due to the detection of one of its start conditions.

Auxiliary fan command


Auxiliary fan is started if:
One of auxiliary fan start conditions is verified (L2BT is true)
All cutoffs conditions are not verified (L4BT is false)
When auxiliary fan start conditions are not verified, the fan is stopped if one of the following conditions is
true:
K4BTON (typically120 min) after flameout (L28FDX is false)
Manually by HMI pushbutton (L43BT12S_CPB command)
- From MCC drawers
Switchover Sequence
A switchover event is defined as an automatic or manual change of the fan selected to run.
An automatic switchover to Stand-by is requested (L2BT) if the main fan has a decrease in performance,
sensed by low enclosure differential pressure (L63BT).
At automatic switchover, the Stand-by fan starts immediately and the main fan is kept running for a
switchover delay time (typically 10 s), and than is stopped.
If the stand-by fan is running due to an automatic switchover, than the stand-by fan running alarm is
activated (L52BT_ALM) and further automatic switchover are disabled.
If low alarm persists after a changeover, shutdown is generated.
Automatic switchover is bypassed if one of the following condition is verified:
Loss of ventilation due to open door
Admission to enclosure procedure activated
After the automatic switchover to stand-by, if the operative differential pressure has been recovered, after
proper inspection of main fan failures, the operator can reset the stand-by running alarm, by selecting as
main the running fan through L43BT_CMD command.
Note that if otherwise the operative differential pressure has not been recovered, acting on L43BT_CMD
doesnt cause the stand-by alarm reset but causes a manual switchover to new selected stand-by fan.
The operator can force a manual fan switchover through HMI pushbutton L43BT_CMD.
If the operator requests a (manual) fan switchover when the main fan is running, than the new selected
main fan starts immediately and the deselected fan continues to run for the switchover delay time, than is
stopped. Manual fan switchover does not activate any stand-by fan running alarm.
If the operator requests a manual fan switchover when both fans are running or both are stopped, nothing
changes except the main vs. stand-by fan selection.
Manual fans command
If all start permissive conditions are verified and all cutoffs conditions are not verified, each fan can be
manually started (HMI command L43BT12_CMD) and stopped (HMI command L43BT12S_CPB)

Water wash off-line active (L83BW)
Ignition active (L2TVX)
Before start passed and after K20VG2_C seconds from loss of L4.
After flame detection and before 1.1 * K20VG2_C seconds after loss of flame (~L28FDX).
Conditions above select the complementary to the enabling opening window (see figure 1). Note that in
case of trip event before ignition, the alarm is also disabled during maximum closing time (K20VG2_C) to
allow vent valve to close.
Alarms logic.
If the fuel gas pressure is low, detected by l63fgl, during ignition L2TVX or with flame detected L28FDX,

SOFTWARE DESCRIPTION
Fire Fighting &Gas detection logic:
Kindly refer the F&G PLC Logic Digram (SOM5461015)

Field Interface:
If at least one fire fighting CO2 discharge valve is detected not open (L33CP is false) by the limit switch
ZSH -702 A (33CP-4A) or the limit switch ZSH -702 B (33CP-4B) , MKVIe alarm L33CP_ALM is
generated; the related P&Id alarm is ZAK-701A.
If at least one fire fighting CO2 discharge valve is detected closed, XS -160 (33CP-1) signal (software
signal l33cp_c) is received from F&G monitor and MKVIe alarm L33CPC_ALM, complementary XS -160
(33CP-1), is generated.
If at least one fire fighting bottle in bank A is empty, WSL -703 (33CR-A) MKVIe alarm L33CR_A_ALM
(P&Id alarm WAL-700) is generated.
If at least one fire fighting bottle in bank B is empty, WSL -706 (33CR-B) MKVIe alarm L33CR_B_ALM
(P&Id alarm WAL-701) is generated.
CO2 discharge logic:
The fire and gas monitor can be set in Automatic or Inhibited mode.
In Automatic Mode the extinguishant shall be released, after a 30 seconds delay, upon automatic
detection of fire or manual activation of discharge pushbuttons. This condition is immediately notified
through horns and red flashing lights close to the enclosure.
In Inhibited mode, only manual CO2 release activation is available.
If fire trip is generated and notified to MKVIe through XS -163 (45FTT) hardwired signal (l45ftt MKVIe
software signal) by the F&G panel, and, after an appropriate delay1, no CO2 discharge positive feedback
is detected (XS -171 (63CPD) hardwired signal from F&G panel to MKVIe; l63cpd MKVIe software signal),
MKVIe alarm L30CPD_ALM CO2DISCHARGE FAILED- is raised.

This delay is the sum of safety CO2 discharge command delay (30sec) and actual discharge time on quick discharge header (this
value K96CP- is set to 30sec with a conservative approach. To be adjusted at site if needed).

Generator fans are started and generator heaters are stopped at generator breaker closure.
On the opposite side, generator fans are stopped, and generator heaters are started when generator
breaker opening occurs.
Cooling fans are designed for continuous operation. It is sufficient to have two of the three cooling fans in
service to provide generator full output power; this is the reason why, during normal operation, two
o
generator fans are activated, while the third one (auxiliary fan) starts only if a threshold of 95 C is reached
by TE -371 (A26GAC1) , TE -372 (A26GAW) , TE -373 (A26GAC2) output values (a26bg1, a26bg2,
a26bg3 software signals).
The auxiliary fan is selected by the operator and is started when one high temperature alarm between
TAH-371, TAH-372, and TAH-373 is displayed.
When the high temperature alarm condition is reset, the auxiliary fan remains running and can be stopped
manually by the operator from HMI or MCC. If auxiliary fan is started an alarm is generated. During normal
GT operation, the operator can choose a different auxiliary fan, starting it and stopping one of the previous
selected main fans; anyway two of three cooling fans are always required in service.
The generator is also equipped with four anticondensate heaters 23EG-1-4 which are switched on after
the cool-down period (L62CD) and during off line water washing sequence and switched off on flame
detected.<4>

SOFTWARE DESCRIPTION
All the instrumentation involved is controlled by the Mark VIe.
When the turbine shaft speed is detected at 95% of rated speed by SE -200 A (77NH-1) , SE -200 B
(77NH-2) and SE -200 C (77NH-3) , the turbine axial compressor bleed valves are operated closed
through FV -212 (20CB-1) solenoid valve, and the turbine is ready to synchronize.
The complete sequence flag (software signal L3) will be reset in case of trip sequence initiated (software
signal L4 = 0) or shutdown sequence initiated (software signal L94X=1).
On the HMI synchronization display, the the following operating modes are available:
OFF
This selection disables all MARK VIe synchronizing functions. This selection is forced if GCPP
manual synchronization is enabled.
AUTO This selection enables the automatic synchronization using the MKVIe internal functions; it is set
to true if GCPP permissive XS -202 (GCPP-AUTO) - is true.
With auto-synchronization selected, when the turbine shaft speed is detected equal to minimum operating
speed (95% of rated speed), the signal XS -212 (41FX) EXCITATION ENABLED 95% SPEED is sent
from MARK VIe to the GCPP and then replicated from this panel to the GEP. If all the following
synchronization permissive conditions are satisfied, turbine shaft speed reference is set to 100.3 %:
Generator breaker open status (software signal L52GX is false);
BUS reference voltage fault not detected (software signal l8vtb1 is false);
AVR reference voltage fault not detected (software signal l8vtavr is false);
Metering reference voltage fault not detected (software signal l8vtm is false);
Protections reference voltage fault not detected (software signal l8vtp is false);
AVR Automatic mode selected (software signal l43avr is true);
AVR Local mode not selected (software signal l43avrlc is false);
Field contactor closed (software signal l41x is true);
Complete start sequence ended (L3 is true)
Automatic synchronizing permissive (l3gg is true)
See also section 2.6.
When 100.3% of turbine rated shaft speed is reached, the unit is ready to synchronize.
Upon ready to synchronize condition detection and Start Autosync HMI pushbutton activation,
generator breaker closure command XS -215 (25) is sent from the MKVIe to the GCPP.
Speed and voltage matching permissive signal raise is required to allow circuit breaker closing command
to be sent; this permissive signal is obtained as a cumulative signal composed of:
Synchronization permissives;
Software signal L3SVL notifying that bus voltage is between 95 and 105 % of rated voltage;
Software signal displaying that generator frequency differs less than 1Hz from rated frequency;
Software signal displaying that line frequency differs less than 1Hz from rated frequency.

The voltage-matching algorithm generates raise/lower signals l83rv/l83lv, sent by the MKVIe to the GCPP
voltage regulator XS -213 (83-RV), XS -214 (83-LV) hardwired signal).
The speed-matching algorithm generates raise/lower signals used to change turbine speed reference.
Speed matching is designed to bring the generator frequency slightly (0.15 Hz) above the line frequency.
The generator breaker is closed when the synchro-check contact is closed.
After generator breaker closure, the MKVIe increases the quantity of fuel provided to the turbine by
regulating fuel gas valves position, in order to reach the partial load level of active power, if preselected
load or base load is set.
In case of a generator breaker trip the turbine speed reference is restored to 100.3 % and the unit
becomes again ready to be synchronized. Unit start command, available through a pushbutton on the
HMI, is required to restart the synchronization process.
Load management control logics
Load management is performed selecting Droop or Isochronous mode. This selection is available on
the HMI, if the main selector is in Local (software signal L43R is false) position. If the main selector
position is Remote (software signal L43R is true), load management mode selection is performed by the
Power Management System..
Manual load management control logics
If main selector on HMI is in Local position (software signal L43R is false), the operator is allowed to
change current active power value, using raise and lower HMI push buttons.
If pre-selected load selection is configured, load management is automatically transferred to manual
mode upon raise or lower push button selection.

3.17 DROOP AND ISOCHRONOUS CONTROL MODE


In normal procedure the MARK VIe governor control is automatically switched in Constant Settable
DROOP mode, as soon as the generator breaker is closed; in this operative mode, the load control is
performed via Power Raise/Lower signals by the HMI or the PMS (if master selector is in Remote
position).
This Speed/Load control method considers gas turbine megawatt output as a control parameter to
formulate the turbine droop response to electrical grid perturbations and consequently adjust it in order to
maintain grid frequency at a constant value.
The following chart shows how the turbine power supplied to the load (horizontal axis) varies with
reference to turbine speed set point. This set point, called TNR, is the gas turbine speed reference in
terms of percent of the nominal speed, and maintains a constant value on each diagonal line in the chart.
As clearly displayed, if TNR value is fixed (i.e. TNR=104% - see the bold diagonal line in the graph), any
load demand reduction of 25% makes the turbine speed to increase of 1% and the corresponding grid
frequency (shown on the left vertical axis) to rise up of 0.5Hz. Conversely, if a 25% additional load is
connected to the grid, a complementary 1% speed and 0.5 grid frequency reduction occurs, moving along
TNR=104% diagonal line.
Constant Settable Droop Control manages TNR constant adjustments, based on load demand variations,
to prevent the grid frequency from changinig as described.
After synchronization to an electrical power grid with 60Hz frequency, the TNR value has to be changed
between 100% and 104% to modify the load output from 0% to 100% (consider the chart below moving
from point (A) to point (B)).
For different fixed values of grid frequency, as displayed in the chart, the Constant Settable Droop load
control mode makes a 4% variation of turbine speed set-point correspond to a 100% variation of the
power supplied to the load.

ISOCHRONOUS control mode is also possible in this kind of units. In this load control mode, the unit is
driven to maintain a constant speed regardless of the load requirements and therefore of the output
delivered.
Consequently, in this load control mode, the value of the active power supplied to the load cant be set and
the machine faces to all load variations; i.e., if an increase in load power demand occurs, gas turbine
consequent response is a speed reduction, immediately corrected by the speed controller increasing the
gas quantity supplied to the machine.
For this reason, if two or more interconnected units are working together, each load variation causes a
fuel gas flow adjustment in the unit running in isochronous mode, while the other units (in DROOP mode)
are set to deliver a fixed power output.

When BASE LOAD is selected the unit is automatically loaded after synchronization and output power is
increased until maximum rated exhaust temperature detection (notified by TE -211 A (TT-XD-1) TE -211
M (TT-XD-13)). After any ambient conditions change, delivered power is automatically adjusted to hold the
highest allowable MWatt output. The reference of the exhaust temperature is biased by MEDIAN
compressor discharge pressure to maintain a constant firing temperature even when the ambient
conditions are changing.
PRESELECTED LOAD
The operator is allowed to set a certain MWatt output value as an HMI input; the Mark VIe will use this
value as a pre-selected load control constant. When PRESELECTED load control mode is set, the unit will
automatically load or unload till the required MWatt output is reached. The control system will regulate the
MWatt output within the allowed operating values.
MANUAL LOAD CONTROL
Manual load selection is performed on the HMI. Any different selected mode (i.e. Pre-Selected) will be
reset to manual control if the operator activates RAISE/LOWER commands on HMI or if the governor
control is transferred from DROOP to ISOCHRONOUS.
Frequency adjustment is also permitted to the operator through raise/lower push buttons.

To mitigate the high wheel space temperature issue, the GT cooling system has been
redesigned and made more efficient by means of the ejector installed at the 4th stage
compressor extraction.
Design Criteria
th

Ejector system will improve the cooling through the 4 stage during partial load operation.
th

Ejector will commutate to close position when the pressure on 4 stage will reach the value of 1.3 1.4
barA.
The valve selected for the ejector control is an Electro-Pneumatic valve. A solenoid controlled by a Mark
VI signal direct the pneumatic actuator to open or close the ejector valve.
The control signal is the IGV feedback and the pneumatic actuator is put into action by instrument air.

Test performed on field shown the ejector capability to provide the right cooling flow during partial load
operation.
