2 Masterclass Overview Failure investigations are tough rigorous challenges form the best in engineering. This course will teach delegates the analytical and creative ability of the best students. Jim Oswald has resolved many major gas turbine failures that can not be solved by many consultants before him. These cases will be presented on the course and there will be a lot of exercises to let the delegates have a deep understanding in solving major gas turbine failure. Each attendee must bring a laptop computer with Microsoft operating system with Microsoft Excel and power point installed. Masterclass Objectives Identifying the true root cause of failures, consequences, sequences of failure and remedies Understanding the interactions of components of gas turbine as a system including control systems and engine surge Effectively organising and structuring an investigation plan Experience first hand how fishbone analysis and Sequence of Events can help in investigations Assessing factors which limit reliable operation Assessing fatigue failures and how it limits engine operational life Identifying the true root cause of failures, consequences, sequences of failure and remedies Understanding, recognizing and preventing further repeat failures through pattern analysis Strengthen understanding of gas turbine failures and operational limit concerns through thorough discussion with the trainer Specially Designed for The course is designed for professionals who want to know practical knowledge which will sharpen analytical skill in resolving major gas turbine failures. Reliability Engineer Rotating Mechanical Engineer Maintenance Engineer Electrical Engineer Instrument Engineer Petrosync Quality Limited Attendees The course has limited seats to ensure maximum learning and experience for all delegates. your continuing professional development. Interactive Training You will be attending training designed to share both the latest knowledge and practical experience through interactive sessions. This will provide you with a deeper and more long-term understanding of your current issues. High Quality Course Materials Printed course manual will provide you with working materials throughout the course and will be an invaluable source of reference for you and your colleagues afterward.

3 Gas Turbine Failure Analysis 04th - 05th October 2016 at Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia 28th - 29th November 2016 at Jakarta, Indonesia DAY 1 1 Module 1 Identifying root cause of failure Group task: Testing the delegates critical thinking skills through role play by explaining and solving a failure example provided by the tutors failure example: Identifying what happened before the failure What consequence was there of the failure What was the sequence of failure What was root cause and how can we remedy? This teaches delegates to think carefully through the failure from start to finish and appreciate that understanding sequence and consequences is vital to identifying true root cause, and this is vital if repeat failures are to be avoided Module 2 Controls and engine surge Control system: How it protects the engine, explained and discussed Failures often involve understanding the interactions of components of the gas turbine as a system system. The controls are the central place where protection is enabled. Delegates will learn the importance of controls and how that impacts on protection of the wider engine system. Group task: Compressor surge - calculate compressor limits How compressors work and interact with combustors and turbine nozzles How engine surge can occur and how controls protect against this Impact of turbine entry temperature and Inlet Guide Vanes on engine surge control during start acceleration and operation This module teaches the delegates to consider the engine as a system and not just as individual components, which have experienced failure Module 3 Failure investigation methods Organising and structuring an investigation to plan a thorough root cause analysis investigation: Importance and methods of communications Formal failure investigation methods How to create a fishbone analysis - Identifying possible failure causes (sub-categories of people, process, equipment) - Failure effects and how this helps plan the investigation How to create a fishbone analysis - How to create a sequence of events diagram - Differences between incidents, event, forcing function, qualifiers and Group task: Produce fishbone and Sequence of Events diagrams of role play example Discuss strengths and weaknesses of each approach and how to apply them in practice Module 4 Important factors which limit reliable operation Engine Thermodynamic Performance Group task: Calculate turbine entry temperature and turbine blade temperature. Creep life Group exercise - calculate turbine creep life using turbine blade temperature Calculate turbine blade creep life reduction for an increase in turbine temperature of 20C Discussion of importance of controls system in protecting engine Module 5 Fatigue failures Fatigue life Low cycle and high cycle fatigue explained. What is fatigue, where can it occur in a gas turbine? Why is fatigue life important and how it limits engine operational life. Low cycle fatigue examples High cycle fatigue examples Group task: Calculate number cycles to failure for presented example Discuss and learn methods by which gas turbine fatigue life can be improved IN-HOUSE SOLUTIONS SAVE COST IMPROVE PERFORMANCE REDUCE RISK PetroSync understands that in current economic climate, getting an excellent return on your training investment is critical for all our clients. This at your preferred location and time. We will meet you anywhere around the globe. If you like to know more about this excellent program, please contact or general@petrosync.com

4 Gas Turbine Failure Analysis 04th - 05th October 2016 at Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia 28th - 29th November 2016, Jakarta, Indonesia DAY 2 1 Module 1 Types of metal fracture that could lead to gas turbine failure Recognising Metallurgy fracture surfaces to correctly identify and explain cause of component failure Inter-granular cracks Ductile fracture Brittle fracture Fatigue fracture Module 2 Thermal fatigue Examples of thermal fatigue failure in gas turbines What is it? How does it break metal - Thermal fatigue examples of combustors and transition components - How thermal barrier coating helps reduce thermal Group task: Example calculation of fatigue life on gas turbine transition piece How can you reduce thermal fatigue in gas turbines - Influence of start sequence on thermal fatigue - Importance of number of starts on thermal fatigue Module 4 Summarising learning form course Summaries and review causes of gas turbine failure controls / temperature / fatigue Review importance of component interaction of whole system behavior and how controls protects engine Summarise metallurgical failure types and how they help identify root causes Review how delegate will report failure investigation better to management Group tasks: Update Sequence of Events diagram to include lessons learnt from course Module 5 Students can raise gas turbine failures and operational limit concerns they are familiar with for discussion with group / trainer Module 3 Importance of failure patterns in root cause analysis Looking for patterns in repeating failures Why pattern analysis is important in understanding root cause of failure and prevention of further repeat failures Examples of pattern analysis in real life gas turbine failure case studies Using creative thinking to test and explore possible failure patterns Methods to identify patterns Group task: Role-play simulations of real life gas turbine failures identify failure patterns from real life gas turbine failures presented PROGRAM SCHEDULE 08:00 09:00 Registration (Day1) 09:00 11:00 Session I 11:00 11:15 Refreshment & Networking Session I 11:15 13:00 Session II 13:00 14:00 14:00 15:30 Lunch Session III 15:30 15:45 Refreshment & Networking Session II 15:45 17:00 Session IV 17:00 End of Day
