Standard Hardware GENERAL INFORMATION The Turbotronic 4 control system is a highly integrated programmable controller-based control system with a video display unit (VDU) and operator interface panel (Figure 1). The control system consists of several distinct modules: a programmable controller, input/output (I/O) modules (discrete and analog), VDU, relay backup system, control and monitoring software, onskid control console, and the package sensing and control elements. The internal computing capability of the control system may vary by product line, but each control system has the same basic internal components, as depicted in Figure 2. The control system requires a source of 24Vdc nominal power, which is derived from a source of 120-Vdc power supplied by a battery bank with associated battery charger. ONSKID CONTROL CONSOLE The control system is provided in two onskid, NEMA 4 boxes. The control system is designed to operate in a nonhazardous area. The turbine control panel and onskid VDU include all necessary switches and indicators for gas turbine operation.

COMBINATION GENERATOR CONTROL MODULE

All components within the control console are factory interconnected and wired to the sensors and transmitters. Labels are in English, but can be provided in various other languages (see "Optional Control and Display Features").

The programmable controller is programmed in a language called “relay ladder logic” or in “function block diagram” programming. Ladder logic format (Figure 3) is quite familiar to most operators and engineering personnel, since it closely emulates the relay logic used in the past. It also includes a variety of computational and file transfer commands useful for data manipulation, calculation, and communication. Using an optional programming terminal, the user can monitor the program online and troubleshoot a problem or make modifications when required (see “Programmable Controller Field Programming” option). In addition to viewing the ladder logic online, a copy of the ladder files may be printed out. Function block diagram programming (Figure 4) allows control algorithms to be programmed in a graphical format familiar to process control engineers. This format can program a complex algorithm on one page that would take multiple pages of ladder logic to implement. The compact program is easier to read, troubleshoot, and understand.

PROGRAMMABLE CONTROLLER The heart of the control system is the programmable controller. The programmable controller performs the following functions in conjunction with the input and output signal modules: · Sequencing of gas turbine and auxiliaries · Control of turbine and driven equipment during start-up, loading, operation and shutdown · Protection of turbine from abnormal operating conditions · Protection of driven equipment from abnormal operating conditions · Response to commands from operator · Analog and status outputs for display and monitoring

Figure 3. Ladder Logic Diagram

Figure 4. Function Block Diagram Programming INPUT/OUTPUT MODULES In order to perform many of its functions, the programmable controller must gather physical data. This is accomplished through I/O modules that are provided as discrete (input, output, or both) or analog (input, output, or both). Discrete inputs are typically used for alarms, shutdowns, or status indications and analog inputs are used for scaleable functions. The I/O modules are mounted to terminal base units (Figure 5). Terminal base units have two primary functions. First, when they are connected side to side, the bases serve as a backplane, allowing data to be transferred from the I/O module to the programmable controller via ControlNet 1.5. Second, the terminal base acts as the terminal strip to which the field devices are wired. Data are transferred to and from the I/O module via an adapter module. The adapter serves as a communication hub between each of the attached I/O modules and the programmable controller, providing not only I/O data, but also individual module status and health. In addition, the adapter also serves to power the internal logic for as many as eight I/O modules.

Figure 5.

Typical I/O Module Mounted on a Terminal Base Unit

Discrete Input Modules. Discrete input modules receive signals from on/off devices, such as level switches, pressure switches, push buttons, relays, and protective equipment normally used during sequencing of the gas turbine. Discrete signals can be used for alarms, shutdowns or simply indicators, but are not necessarily displayed. The discrete input modules can have a capacity of up to 16 channels depending on module type.

used with both non-Flex I/O and Flex I/O and can handle communications over distances of up to 1000 m (3300 ft), or more if repeaters are used, at a bus speed of 5.0 megabits per second. This is more than 50 times faster than the widely used Data Highway Plus (DH+) and the Remote I/O systems. The physical layer of ControlNet 1.5 is quad shielded RG-6U coaxial cable, with a passive tap used to make a connection. The most significant features of ControlNet 1.5 are its speed and the fact that it is both deterministic and repeatable. Deterministic is the ability to reliably predict when data will be delivered, and repeatability ensures that transmit times are constant and unaffected by devices connecting to, or leaving, the network. The network update time for a typical turbomachinery control system is around five milliseconds.

Discrete Output Modules. Discrete output modules are used to drive output devices such as solenoid valves, relays or motor contactors. The discrete output module is capable of having either 8 or 16 channels of output data per module. If “dry” contacts are required, then a set of interposing relays or a two-amp contact relay output module may be provided at additional cost.

POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM Analog Input Modules. Analog input modules accept analog signals and digitize the data for transfer to the programmable controller. Modules can accept either four or eight single-ended inputs, with different channels being used for different types of input. Each channel is individually configured for current or voltage by choosing where the input is connected on the terminal base.

The power supply system supplies power to the programmable controller, input/output modules, video display unit, and relay backup systems. It consists of independent, voltage converting, dcto-dc isolating power supplies. The system receives 120-Vdc input from the battery system and converts it into a regulated and filtered 28-Vdc power at a maximum of 20 amps. BACKUP SYSTEM

Temperature Modules. Temperature modules serve to condition and transfer temperature data from package resistance temperature detectors (RTD), 100-ohm platinum preferred, and thermocouples to the programmable controller. The temperature module has eight input channels.

The basic control system is equipped with an independent relay backup system that serves to initiate emergency shutdown of the turbomachinery and to control the post-lube cycle. Critical input signals monitored by the backup system include the backup power turbine overspeed monitor, manual emergency stop switches (located at the console and turbine skid), the programmable controller fail “watchdog” timer, and the fire system relay contacts. When activated by any of the above faults, the relay backup system initiates a safe shutdown of the turbine and driven equipment. The backup control system is a combination of instantaneous and time delay relays. When a failure of the programmable controller occurs, all discrete outputs are automatically switched off. The programmable controller fail relay is re-energized on a fault condition. A fault is initiated either by the internal programmable controller “watchdog“ or by failure of the output module. The programmable controller fail relay contacts are used in the relay backup system to initiate an emergency shutdown, to isolate the driven equipment by transferring block valves or circuit breakers to their safe position, and to sequence operation of the post-lube oil system.

Speed Modules. Speed modules perform highspeed frequency algorithms. The frequency inputs can accept frequencies up to 32,767 Hz. The speed module has two input channels, each of which may accept magnetic pickup signals from 500 mV to 28 Vac peak. Analog Output Modules. Analog output modules are used to send an analog signal, either repeating one of those supplied by the purchaser or used in the basic control or display of the control system. The analog output module is a fourchannel output module. INTERNAL COMMUNICATION Communication between the programmable controller and I/O modules is via ControlNet 1.5 (Figure 2). ControlNet 1.5 is a high speed, deterministic, serial communications link. This can be 4

of operation. The transfer from droop to isochronous and isochronous to droop is bumpless. Speed set-point adjustment is by means of speed increase and speed decrease momentary push buttons on the turbine control console. A solid-state combination generator control module (CGCM) provides load sharing between multiple units and is specifically designed to interface with the programmable controller to provide an integrated power generation control solution. Each generator's load is continuously measured by the respective CGCM and compared to other units on the same bus via interconnect circuits, facilitating equal real and reactive load sharing between the units. Turbine engine temperature (T5) is also an input to the governor control. When turbine temperature exceeds rated levels, fuel flow is then controlled based on temperature rather than speed or load inputs. In the case of a generator paralleled with an infinite bus (utility), the temperature control limits the load-carrying contribution of the unit to its rated full-load capacity for the current ambient temperature conditions. When the generator is not paralleled with the utility, the temperature control is set to a higher temperature to allow momentary operation in excess of rated load during on-load transients.

Once a shutdown is initiated by the backup system, operation can only be restored manually by a safety key switch lockout located on the console front panel when all faults have been cleared. This action re-energizes the master control relay and its associated relays and timers are restored to their normal position. VIBRATION MONITORING SYSTEM The vibration monitoring system provides vibration indication and protection for the gas turbine, gearbox, and driven equipment. Depending on the unacceptable vibration level, either a warning is indicated or a turbine shutdown is initiated. The gas turbine vibration monitoring instrumentation consists of a single proximity probe per bearing or two velocity transducers per engine for the Centaur 40 gas turbine. The gearbox is typically instrumented with an accelerometer. The generator is typically instrumented with a velocity transducer per bearing. The proximity probes, accelerometers, and velocity transducers are connected to individual transmitters that provide 4-to-20 mA signals to be read by the turbine package control system. All data available to the programmable controller are also obtainable via serial link for user remote monitoring, diagnostics and trending. Direct access to the raw vibration signals is available via BNC connectors.

T5 Temperature Limiter. Limits the real load (kW) on a unit operating in parallel with a large power source, such as an electric utility or other infinite bus system at the maximum unit rating for any ambient temperature condition. The system limits the kW load by limiting T5 temperature to a predetermined factory-set level. When the predetermined temperature level is reached, the limiter takes control of the throttle and prevents any further increase in temperature and, thus, load. The unit continues to operate at this full site-rated load for the current ambient temperature. With changes in ambient temperature (engine air inlet temperature T1), the limiter adjusts the load to maintain a constant T5 temperature, thus, automatically maintaining the unit at full site-rated load at all times. If the application periodically requires operation at a specific constant load level, rather than full site-rated capacity, then the optional kW controller should be used. The T5 temperature limited system is a part of the turbine temperature control and indication system and its set point can be viewed from the VDU.

GOVERNOR The "governor system" consists of various hardware and systems integrated together to provide the governor function. The governor is a speed, load and temperature control system whose dominant signal depends on the mode of operation of the turbine generator set: for example, starting, stopping, operating in island mode, operating in parallel with other units, or operating in parallel with a utility source. The system consists of the turbine speed transducer (magnetic pickup), the speed monitor, turbine T5 temperature thermocouples, temperature input module, electronic fuel valve, and the programmable controller software files. The governor system maintains generator frequency and/or generator load distribution (when operating in parallel) by controlling turbine fuel flow. Output current to the fuel actuator provides the mechanical interface to the electronic fuel valve. The system includes provisions for selection of isochronous or speed droop modes

GENERATOR CONTROL AND PROTECTION General. Combining several generator control components into one powerful package, the combination generator control module (CGCM) provides more flexibility and accessibility to specific generator control options. The CGCM (Figure 6) combines load share, synchronization, voltage control, reactive power control, and generator protection functions into one module. The CGCM communicates with the programmable controller via high speed ControlNet 1.5 (Figure 7). The module performs synchronization in combination with the programmable controller software program and voltage regulation via the control of the exciter field current. The module senses the three-phase voltage and the threephase current via PTs and CTs. The module provides real load-sharing and reactive load sharing. Reactive load sharing can be reactive droop or reactive differential (cross-current compensation). Auto Synchronizing. The control system includes an auto synchronizer for the closure of the unit circuit breaker. Upon sending an initiate synchronization discrete signal, the auto synchronizer brings the generator into frequency, volt-

VOLTAGE REGULATION

age, and phase compliance and sends a signal to close the unit circuit breaker. The error signal for the voltage and phase comes from the CGCM. The communication is via ControlNet 1.5.

Steady-State Stability Steady-state voltage regulation is defined as constant frequency and load. When the generator is operating steady state at any load, the generator voltage varies no more than ±0.1%.

KW Control (Optional). Controls the real kilowatt load on a generator operating in parallel with an infinite bus or other large source. Three types of kW load control are available:

No Load to Full-Load Accuracy At constant frequency and at rate power factor, the voltage regulation varies no more than ±0.25%.

1. KW Import Control – The kW import control system controls the real load (kW) on a unit operating in parallel with a large source such as a utility. The import control monitors the load that is being imported from the utility source and adjusts the turbine generator output to maintain a preset amount of minimum load. The import control allows the import of unlimited power while maintaining the minimum power. This control is for applications where it is desired to prevent any power from being exported to the utility.

Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) The voltage adjustment range about the selected nominal value is ±10%. The resolution of the voltage is 0.1%. Voltage metering accuracy is ±0.2%. Field Current Regulator (FCR) The current regulation mode allows the operator to adjust the field current manually. This gives the operator a manual voltage regulator. During the FCR mode, the automatic voltage regulator is disabled. It is important to note that the FCR is not the equivalent of an independent manual voltage regulator, since it uses some of the same circuitry as the automatic voltage regulator.

2. KW Control – The kW control system controls the real load (kW) on a unit operating in parallel with a large source. The control monitors the load carried by the turbine generator set and adjusts turbine fuel flow to maintain a constant load under conditions of varying infinite bus frequency. The turbine T5 limiter system provides protection against excessive kW load while in parallel with an infinite source. The kW control system provides additional operational flexibility by allowing unit kW load level to be set at any desired constant level within the capacity of the unit. In this mode, the unit may be carrying the entire load within the plant, while the remaining unit capacity is being exported to the utility. In addition, the kW control set point can be the manipulated variable in the process control loop. For example, to modulate steam production in a cogeneration application, the steam production control could modulate the kW control set point.

CONTROL AND PROTECTION Reactive Voltage Droop Reactive voltage droop is possible through the use of a single externally provided current transformer (CT). The voltage droop is adjustable for a maximum of 10% droop at 0.8-power factor and full rated load of the generator. Reactive droop, cross-current compensation and no droop voltage control are selectable via ControlNet 1.5. Cross-Current Compensation The cross-current compensation method of paralleling is possible with other controllers of similar type. This uses the same CT that is used if reactive voltage droop is selected instead of crosscurrent compensation.

3. KW Export Control – The kW export control limits the amount of power that is being exported to the utility or large source. The amount of power that is being exported is limited to a preselected value. If the selected value exceeds the turbine capacity, then the T5 limiting control protects the turbine against excessive kW load.

KVAR/Power Factor Control (Optional) This feature maintains a constant reactive load (kVAR) output or constant power factor (pf) on the generator set when the unit is operating in parallel with a large source. Power factor and kVAR control can be enabled or disabled by the operator from the VDU. The operator can also 7

select whether to use kVAR control or power factor control and set the set points from the VDU.

· · · · · · · · ·

Kilowatt Load Sharing The load-sharing circuitry provides the ability to communicate with another CGCM, such that two or more generator sets may equally share load when running in parallel. Also, the CGCM will load share with older controls from Solar, such as the LSM module or Woodward 2301 governor. The load sharing between generators of unequal rating is proportional to their rating.

Over-Excitation Voltage. The over-excitation voltage protection has a timed over-excitation trip. The timed over-excitation protects the controller and generator from long-term field forcing conditions.

Over-Excitation Limiting The over-excitation limiter senses field current and responds in less then three cycles. When field current exceeds the limits, the limiter function overrides the action of the CGCM AVR, VAR, or power factor modes and limits the current to the preset level.

Generator Over Voltage. The unit has an overvoltage monitor adjustable from 100 to 140% of rated voltage in 1% increments. Generator Under Voltage. The unit has an under-voltage monitor adjustable from 60 to 100% of rated voltage, settable in 1% increments.

Under-Excitation Limiting Under-excitation limiting (UEL) limits the decrease in excitation to prevent loss of synchronization and excessive end-iron heating during parallel operation.

Loss of Sensing. When the generator voltage falls below 15% of the rated generator voltage, a loss of voltage sensing annunciation occurs. The loss of sensing function is supervised by the loss of operating power function and does not become active until operating power reaches its minimum threshold.

Line Drop Compensation Line drop compensation is a function of generator output current. Both the real and the reactive component of the current are used. The compensation is based on the magnitude of the line current. It is adjustable from 0 to 10% of rated voltage.

Loss of PMG. A loss of PMG fault is issued within three cycles (50 msec) if PMG power input is lost. Loss of Excitation. A loss of excitation protection fault is issued in order to protect against a reverse VAR condition in the event the excitation current is lost.

Voltage Input Signal The voltage regulator sensing uses three-phase signals. Current Input Signal

Over Frequency. When generator frequency exceeds rated frequency for a specified amount of time, an over-frequency fault is annunciated.

The CGCM uses 5-amp nominal inputs. The accuracy is ±0.2% of full scale.

Under Frequency. When generator frequency falls below the rated frequency for a specified amount of time, a definite time under-frequency fault is annunciated.

Protection The protection functions are designed to diagnose and respond to the following events: · · · ·

Loss of PMG (27) Loss of excitation (40Q) Over frequency (81O) Under frequency (81U) Reverse power (32R) Phase rotation error (47) Over current (51) Rotating diode monitor (58) Reverse VAR (40)

Over-excitation voltage (59F) Generator over voltage (59) Generator under voltage (27) Loss of sensing (60FL)

Reverse Power. The reverse power protection pickup level is settable from 1 to 50% of rated generator power in increments of 1%. This feature considers real power only.

Phase Rotation Error. When possible and enabled, a phase rotation check is performed prior to initiation of breaker closure.

· Emergency Stop (shutdown without cooldown)

· Normal Stop (shutdown with normal noload cooldown)

Over-Current Protection. Over-current protection must be provided with a short inverse time characteristic, Basler Electric Time Characteristic curve S2, 99-1595. This feature is active if excitation is enabled.

· · · · ·

Rotating Diode Protection. The rotating diode monitor is capable of detecting one or more open or shorted diodes in the rotating field. If a failed diode is detected, a fault is issued.

Onskid Video Display Unit

OPERATOR INTERFACE

The video display unit is used to present an extensive selection of the turbomachinery operating parameters. The display system consists of several screens organized by systems and functions to allow the operator to easily locate and monitor a given parameter. It also includes a passwordprotected screen, which allows the operator to input or modify certain values such as process control set points. The onskid VDU makes use of Solar's TT4000S display and monitoring system, which performs several key functions to facilitate operation of the turbomachinery equipment through a user-friendly interface. The TT4000S system monitors the turbine and driven equipment parameters, annunciates alarms, reports on the running status of the equipment, and provides a comprehensive set of analysis tools. Data storage consists of an alarm / event log containing the last 5000 events, five trigger logs containing one-second tag samples surrounding the last five shutdowns, and an hourly log containing snapshot data for the last 12 months. The TT4000S display and monitoring system uses the Embedded Windows NT operating system and offers the following industry standard features:

The control system operator interface has two major components: the turbine control panel and the video display unit. Turbine Control Panel The turbine control panel (Figure 8) provides the essential controls to start or stop the turbine, to adjust the gas generator speed, and other optional control functions. Some typical gas turbine controls and indications that appear on the control panel include the following: Operation Switches

· Off/Local/Remote (control selector with lockable positions)

· Complies with Transmission Control Protocol and Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) · Supports Object Linking and Embedding for Process Control (OPC) · Supports ActiveX controls · Can be integrated as part of a local area network for sharing of data or remote display communications

Alarms Summary Screen. (Figure 21) This screen displays all alarm and shutdown annunciations with a time and date stamp. Alarms are time stamped in the order in which they are received from the programmable controller. On the display, alarms are shown in yellow and shutdowns in red. Unacknowledged alarms are shown in reverse video. As the malfunctions are acknowledged, they stop flashing and are shown in the corresponding colored text until they are cleared from the system and the Reset switch is pressed. The first four malfunctions detected are displayed at the top of all screens until cleared. Figure 22. First Out Alarm Screen Discrete Event Log. (Figure 23) This feature monitors and records the changes in status of all defined discrete (switch or binary) inputs. These include operator command, alarms and shutdown annunciations, and key sequencing and status signals. They are displayed as a chronological, time-stamped listing of events in the order in which they occurred. It is possible to have multiple events with the same time stamp due to the update rate of the display system. Up to 500 events can be stored in the log. Events can be selected by double clicking on the column heading. Right clicking anywhere on the screen and selecting the Reports menu can easily create reports. This feature provides a historical record of sequence and status events that changed. It can be used to audit package operation or to identify malfunctions that have occurred and areas of the operation that need attention.

Figure 21. Typical Alarm Summary Screen First Out Alarms Display Screen. (Figure 22) This screen displays the order in which alarms occurred. The resolution of the alarm order for this feature is the time of one programmable controller scan. These data are obtained by reading the controller's first out alarm buffer, starting at the first unacknowledged alarm. The controller updates this buffer each scan. Only unacknowledged alarms appear on this screen. Up to 22 alarms can appear. Note: If the First Out Alarms display is to be used to diagnose a shutdown, the Acknowledge button on the control panel must not be pressed. Pressing the Acknowledge button does not eliminate unacknowledged alarms from the controller's alarm buffer, but it changes an alarm index so that the First Out Alarms display cannot access them. As long as the Reset button is not pressed, however, the unchanged contents of the controller alarm buffer can be viewed as described above.

Strip Chart Function. (Figure 24) This function emulates a 10-pen strip chart recorder. The screen displays in real-time up to 10 variables selected by the operator. Parameters are selected by assigning each pen a value; the values can be analog or binary data available for monitoring. Each pen can be assigned different colors, line weights, and symbols to make each monitored value easily distinguished from one another. The bottom of the strip chart screen displays the corresponding legend for each pen. Each of the plots is scaled for the selected variable and displays the actual numerical value for each variable. The date range and scaling can be changed by double clicking on the desired pen to bring up the configuration pull-down menu. The time axis on the strip chart can be configured for each pen by date, hours, minutes, or seconds. The "zoom" feature allows the user to zero in on the particular area of interest.

For languages available, please contact a Solar Turbines representative.

FIRE DETECTION AND SUPPRESSION SYSTEM A fire detection system is available for installation in the enclosure. The primary fire detection system uses ultraviolet (UV) detectors. The system includes an automatic optical integrity feature, which provides a continuous check of the optical surfaces and detector sensitivity. The secondary detection system uses ratecompensated thermal detectors. The two detection systems act completely independent in detecting a fire. A fire system supervisory release panel is furnished whose primary purpose is to supervise the fire system circuitry. An open circuit, ground fault condition, or loss of integrity in the electrical wiring results in a trouble signal. If a fire is sensed, the detectors transmit an electrical signal via the fire system controller and the fire system supervisory panel to activate the fire suppression system. In receiving this signal, the explosionproof control heads activate the discharge valves on the primary and extended extinguishing cylinders, releasing the extinguishing agent into the enclosure and pressurizing the trips that close all vent openings. The fire suppression system achieves a static air condition and then floods the enclosure with the proper concentration of suppressant to extinguish the fire.

COMMUNICATIONS – TURBINE CONTROL TO SUPERVISORY SYSTEM Communication between the gas turbine control system and the user's supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA), distributed control system (DCS), or other supervisory system is available. Turbotronic 4 control systems can be provided with an interface that allows the supervisory system to communicate with the programmable controller, obtain data, and have the control capability required. Data for Transmission The following information from the turbine package is available to be accessed by the supervisory system: 1. Analog instrumentation values 2. Discrete status values 3. Discrete alarms and shutdowns The following information can be sent by the supervisory system: 1. Discrete control commands (start, stop, acknowledge/reset, and change mode of operations) 2. Analog operating set points (kW control, speed, kVAR, pf, and voltage)

FIELD PROGRAMMING One characteristic of the control is that it can be reprogrammed using optional software with criti15

necessary drivers to communicate with all turbine package control networks and network devices (except Modbus) and is required for most applications.

The specific addressing for the data transfer is provided for each turbine package. Protocol The communication language used between programmable controller systems usually follows a set of rules or format called a “protocol.” The protocol defines the sequence and organization of the transmitted data. The RSLogix controller uses an internal proprietary bus protocol called “control and information protocol” (CIP). Communication modules allow different communication networks to interface with this internal bus. Certain arrays of information inside the controller can be configured to mimic PLC-5 data tables that support the DF1 protocol. The user's supervisory system must be programmed to handle the CIP, DF1, or Modbus protocols. The Allen-Bradley communications software RSLinx provides all the

Supervisory Interface Options There are many ways to interface with the gas turbine control system. The most common include serial communication (RS232, RS422, RS485), Ethernet TCP/IP, ControlNet 1.5, and Modbus. See Figure 27 for a typical communication network layout. Each communication network has certain advantages and disadvantages that need to be considered when selecting a network for a particular application. Below is a description of each network to help select the optimum interface for the user’s application:

ControlNet 1.5

Typical Application. The turbine package Ethernet module is usually connected to a local hub that is connected to an Ethernet backbone for data transfer to a remote supervisory system over longer distances. 10BaseFL fiber lines support 2000 m (6560 ft) segments.

This is an Allen-Bradley developed proprietary field bus network. Data transmission rates are high, the communication is deterministic, and all interface modules can be configured for redundant media.

Modbus Slave

· Physical media: quad shielded RG-6U

The Modbus protocol is an open, published and widely implemented protocol. It is used to transfer I/O and register data between Modbus control devices.

· Maximum data transmission rate: 5 Mbps · Maximum number of nodes: 48

or multi-drop (RS485)

· Maximum distance (per Rockwell

Typical Application. This is the control network used to connect the distributed I/O modules to the controller for turbine control. Onsite, VDUs are typically connected directly to this I/O network via PCC or PCIC cards installed in the computer. Supervisory interface (RS232C) with the turbine via ControlNet is allowed only through a serial link connection module (KFC15) or a separate ControlNet network that is not directly connected to the turbine I/O network. The maximum distance and number of nodes allowed for the network can be increased by adding repeaters and/or by using optical fiber media. Field programming terminals can connect to the network via the network access port (RJ-type) located on the interface module or Flex I/O adapters. Current ControlNet 1.5 networks and network devices are not compatible with older ControlNet 1.25 networks or network devices.

Typical Application. The Modbus Interface option gives the turbine package control system the ability to communicate with a Modbus master device through a serial interface (RS232, RS422, or RS485). The turbine package control system acts as a Modbus slave device using a subset of the RTU version of the Modbus protocol. The user provides the Modbus master device, which may be a supervisory control system, a data acquisition system, a central or plant control system, a remote monitoring system or some other computer system.

Ethernet TCP/IP

Remote RS232/422/485 Serial Link

Data transmission rates are high, the communication is non-deterministic, and cabling and connectivity is well known throughout most industries (common office computer network technology).

Serial link communication allows connectivity of devices without special communication modules to communication networks.

The auxiliary VDU communicates with the onskid controller through ControlNet 1.5. The total ControlNet cable run must be no longer than 762 m (2500 ft). Cable run lengths for the auxiliary VDU vary from project to project depending upon how close the motor control center is to the gas turbine. Typically, the cable run without the auxiliary VDU is less than 150 m (500 ft), leaving 610 m (2000 ft) for the auxiliary VDU cable run. Note: these distances are reduced if high flex cable is used.

· Maximum data transmission rate: 20 kbps (RS232), 100 kbps @ 4000 ft/10 Mbps @ 40 ft (RS422/RS485)

· Maximum number of nodes: 32 (RS485) Typical Application. A remote serial link is provided to allow a remote supervisory system to send and receive data to and from the ControlNet network via an external Allen-Bradley KFC15 communication module (RS232). Supervisory serial interface through the DH+ network using a remote KF2 interface module is not advised, since this device can only handle local messaging (communication through other remote networks is not allowed). The application software on the remote supervisory system must handle either DF1 or CIP communication protocols.

Remote Video Display Unit The remote video display unit (VDU) option consists of an industrial desktop computer equipped with TT4000. The remote VDU has all the features of the auxiliary VDU with the exception that some of the operational privileges are limited at the remote VDU. For example, lockout shutdowns cannot be reset remotely. The auxiliary VDU option is a prerequisite for the remote VDU option. The remote VDU communicates with the auxiliary VDU through Ethernet. The Ethernet interconnect is the responsibility of the customer. Distance is limited only by the customer’s network. Both the remote VDU and the auxiliary VDU come with an Ethernet port and modem. The viewing of historical data from the remote VDU may be noticeably slower depending upon the speed of the customer-supplied network. A gas turbine performance map for the predicted rating of a gas turbine at standard conditions is displayed on the VDU (Figure 28). Algo-

rithms convert site data to standard conditions and the operating point is displayed real time on the map at the intersection of X and Y cursors. Digital values for the predicted power, inlet air temperature, gas turbine temperature, fuel flow, and compressor discharge pressure are also displayed on the screen. A key performance indicator is provided for display by calculating the differential value (actual minus predicted) of the digital values. The trend of these parameters provides a true indication of performance degradation since the data are standardized for the actual operating point and not just optimum. Information gained from this feature can point to corrective and diagnostic action required, such as washing the compressor and borescoping the hot gas path.

This option is available with the auxiliary VDU. It includes a printer, cable, and software and provides for a variety of reports and event logging. Features provided are:

· Alarm and Shutdown Log – Prints one

event per line with time and date stamp.

· Reports – On demand, prints current values of standard analog variables and calculated variables. Standard totalized variables may be printed also. · Print Screen – On demand, prints any screen that is currently being displayed.

HARDWARE CERTIFICATION In general, Allen-Bradley components are SA and ATEX certified for Class I, Division 2, Zone 2, Groups A, B, C, and D. AREA CLASSIFICATION Nonhazardous. QUALITY ASSURANCE Complete control systems are put through three test phases at Solar: static test, pre-test, and final test. Further tests are made during installation and commissioning. 1. Static Test. Verifies the correct console wiring and software was installed, including the standard options and nonstandard features required for the project. 2. Pre-Test. The controller is mated with the unit it is shipped with and is used to verify correct skid wiring and certain statically tested functions. 3. Final Test. The unit is operated with its control system, where final package and control tests are made. The software used for this test is the “as-shipped” software (excluding Titan gas turbines). 4. Commissioning. During commissioning tests onsite, any further software changes that are found to be necessary are included in the “as installed” software. CONTROL CONSOLE LAYOUT The basic arrangement for the programmable controller is to have one seven-slot 1756 I/O chassis and power supply similar to the one seen in Figure 29. The programmable controller module is in the leftmost slot and all other applicable modules occupy the six remaining slots. This assembly is mounted on a panel (Figure 30) attached to the back wall of the console.
