Abstract:

A turbine engine diagnostic system utilizing a general purpose computer was developed and tested on a TF30-P-408 engine at sea level conditions. Forty-eight parameters, including vibration, oil and performance parameters, were monitored every 80 milliseconds. Forty-seven diagnostic messages were programmed and were displayed on a cathode ray tube. The system has not been fully debugged. Thirty-four diagnostic messages were demonstrated.
