Hi,
We have GE frame-VI gas turbine. We have problem of Ignition in Gas tubine during start up. There are two retractable-electrode spark plug.
During first time we took two trial to start gas turbine. Turbine trips on ignition failure on both trial. Then we observed and did following thing.
1. We took candle test of flame detector. found ok
2. Operation of GCV and GRV found ok.
3. Interstage gas pressure found ok.
4. Exhast temp increase 65 degC to 85 degC.
5. We also checked intensity of spark Plut putting outside and forcing login. We observed low intensity of spark. so we replace core assembly and terminal extention of both spark plug.
Then after on next trial our Gas Turbine got ignition and our machine run successfully.
Then after few day we got shutdown of machine for 20 hours. and then after during start up on first trial our Gas Turbine failed ignite. We did nothing and take second trial. The tubine got ignite and machine run successfully.
What are the possibility we need to check during next shutdown to come out from this problem ?
Please let us know the suggestion for that.
regards,
Jatin
