Principal Component Analysis for Comprehensive Evaluation on Information of Power Plant Unit
Zhang Guang · Journal of Power Engineering · 2008
In order to comprehensive evaluate running state of generator unit,about operation optimizing,condition monitoring and fault diagnosis,an idea of using Principal Component Analysis(PCA) method to integrate the relevant generator unit information,is presented.Based on its basic principle and examples,it shows that PCA can provide the effective and impersonal evaluation for operation,management,state monitoring and diagnosis of generator unit.The result can be used to quantificationally evaluated turbine,and provide proofs for on line monitoring.
