Abstract
There is described a method for generating a parameter for airfoil performance monitoring, the method comprising: receiving at least a first signal indicative of a first airflow parameter measured at one of an aft position and a side-facing position of a sensor mast mounted to an airfoil and at least a second signal indicative of a second airflow parameter measured at a fore position of the sensor mast; generating a turbulence intensity ratio for each one of the first airflow parameter and the second airflow parameter; and combining the turbulence intensity ratio of the first airflow parameter and the turbulence intensity ratio of the second airflow parameter to generate a combined turbulence intensity ratio for airfoil performance monitoring.
