Abstract
A control system for turbine systems configured to provide accurate interpretations of detected particle accumulation, improve performance of turbine systems, and/or minimize costs due to downtime and maintenance are disclosed. The control system may build an intelligent model of fluid flow based on measured data provided by a sensor in a fluid flow path of the turbine system. The intelligent model consults a filter efficiency framework and determines an impact value that quantifies an operational efficiency of the turbine system and may identify a location of possible leakage, estimate a total amount of ingress of particles, identify components of the turbine system that may be operating in a diminished capacity, estimate a risk of damage to components of the turbine system, and/or recommend mitigation actions.
