Abstract
A tangible non-transitory computer readable medium may include instructions to analyze a first signal indicative of a speed of a turbine system and transform the first signal into a second signal. The tangible non-transitory computer-readable medium may also include instructions to transmit the second signal to control a speed of the turbine system by actuating a field device. Actuating the field device may include controlling a fluid level in a torque converter mechanically coupled to the turbine system, and the speed may be below a minimum setpoint of the turbine system.
