Gas turbines are marvels of engineering, capable of converting natural gas or other fuels into mechanical energy with remarkable efficiency. They play a pivotal role in various applications, including power generation, aviation propulsion, and industrial processes. However, the relentless nature of their operation exposes them to extreme temperatures, pressures, and mechanical stresses. Over time, these factors can lead to material degradation, component failures, and ultimately, reduced turbine life.The Challenge of Durability: Traditionally, gas turbine maintenance has been reactive, relying on scheduled inspections and component replacements based on operating hours or manufacturer recommendations. While this approach ensures a baseline level of reliability, it has limitations. Reactive maintenance can lead to:Unplanned downtime: Unexpected failures can cause significant disruptions and economic losses.Over-maintenance: Replacing components before they reach their true end-of-life can be wasteful.
