Test planning

Power generation equipment model validation and dynamic performance evaluation

Features and benefits

• Clear and complete test planning.
• Efficient in-plant test execution – proven track record with tests of hundreds of units (experience list available upon request).
• Commitment to successful test completion while meeting other objectives, including on-time return to service.
• Capability to test both GE Vernova and non-GE Vernova equipment.
• Portable, easy to connect test instrumentation – unit outage typically not required.
• Resulting dynamic models verified in relevant commercially available software package (e.g. Steady State Power Flow or PSS/E).
• Complete documentation of test approach, results and model verification in one concise, easy-to-read test report.
• Final report and data files directly ready for regulatory submittal.

Applications

We offer steady-state and dynamic model validation for all prime mover types—gas turbine, steam turbine, hydro and other renewables. Given the validated models provided by our test team, you’ll be well-positioned to:

• Respond to regulatory modeling requirements.
• Evaluate plant upgrade options.
• Understand the capabilities and range of your equipment.
