We have two identical gas turbines for power generation in our captive power plant for our fertilizer complex.
Both the machines are GE frame 5 packaged generators (PG5361) manufactured by Hitachi. Both are running on MArK VI control system.
Let's call them GT#1 and GT#2.
GT#1 is not able to attain 100% rated RPM (5105) when run in Isochronous mode. While it runs at 100% rated RPM when run in Droop mode and synchronized with the greed. Due to this the frequency of the generated current by the generator remains slightly less than 50 HZ (standard in India). There is no such problem in GT#2 (GT#2 is installed 10 years later than GT#1, which is installed in 1985).
How can we rectify the problem? Please advice.
