Abstract
Systems and methods for continuous pressure change monitoring in turbine compressors. In one embodiment, a system can be provided. The system can include a dynamic pressure sensing device mounted to the turbine compressor. The dynamic pressure sensing device may be configured to provide continuous dynamic pressure data, which may be associated with one or more pressure change events. The system may further include a memory configured to store the continuous dynamic pressure data, and a processor configured to correlate the one or more pressure change events with one or more component failures of the turbine compressor, and, based at least in part on the correlation, diagnose the one or more component failures.
