Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting the MGT6000 (Micro Gas Turbine 6000) Single Shaft system
requires a systematic approach to identify and resolve issues effectively. As an
experienced engineer, here's a detailed troubleshooting guide for the MGT6000
Single Shaft:

1. Preliminary Checks:
a. Visual Inspection:
- Inspect the turbine for any visible damage, leaks, or loose connections.
- Check for proper alignment of components.

b. Fluid Levels:
- Ensure that fuel, oil, and coolant levels are within the specified range.
- Verify the quality of fuel and oil.

c. Instrumentation:
- Check instrumentation readings for abnormal values.
- Ensure all sensors and transmitters are functioning correctly.

2. Control System:
a. Controller Status:
- Verify the status of the control system. Look for error codes or alarms.
- Check the integrity of the control signals.

b. Emergency Shutdown System:

- Ensure the emergency shutdown system is operational.
- Investigate the cause if an emergency shutdown has occurred.

3. Start-up Issues:
a. Ignition System:
- Check the ignition system for proper functioning.
- Verify the spark plug condition and ignition timing.

b. Fuel System:
- Inspect the fuel system for blockages or leaks.
- Check the fuel pressure and flow rate.

4. Performance Issues:
a. Power Output:
- Monitor and analyze the power output against the expected values.
- Check for any fluctuations or instability.

b. Combustion System:
- Inspect the combustion system for anomalies.
- Monitor exhaust gas temperatures and ensure they are within limits.

c. Compressor and Turbine Efficiency:

- Check compressor and turbine efficiency.
- Investigate any deviations from the expected performance.

- Monitor exhaust gas temperature and
compare it to the specified range.
- Check for any signs of overheating or
abnormal exhaust gas characteristics.

b. Exhaust Gas Flow:

- Verify that the exhaust gas flow is within the
expected range.
- Inspect the exhaust system for leaks.

7. Communication Systems:

Application
Here is an application of SAIC Volkswagen Combined Heat and Power Plant in
Shanghai
SAIC Volkswagen (SVW) and MAN Energy Solutions are fully committed
to protecting the environment. For this reason, both companies joined forces
in 2015 to modernize the SVW power plant in Shanghai with a gas driven
turbine combined heat and power plant (CHP plant). The new CHP plant has
achieved an overall efficiency of >82% and reduces the CO2 emissions by
approximately 40%, compared to the former coal fired power plant.

After five operational years of supplying electricity and heat to the local
corporate grid with high load fluctuations, we would like to share with you
how we have managed to both improve the availability of the gas turbines
and significantly reduce the number of protective shutdowns. Although the
installed MGT6000 gas turbines were produced within the prototype series,
the first machine will soon be reaching the nominal service interval for hot
gas area inspection. A recent borescope inspection has shown the machine is
in an overall good condition.

Installation and Commissioning
The first MGT6000 packages were delivered at the end of 2015 (Picture 2). After
having been commissioned by a joint team of Chinese and German engineers, the
customer took over the MGT6000
packages on February 4, 2016 (Picture 3).
MAN Energy Solutions’ objective is to
localize the customer support and service
for their products to a great extent.
Therefore, local engineers were trained
during commissioning to provide service
and customer support for operation of the
plant. Furthermore, they can rely on the
support of our specialists from our
headquarter for detailed data analysis and
monitoring.
