System Function
Purpose The purpose of the compressors Variable Inlet Guide Vane (VIGV) system is to: Expedite the gas turboset startup, thus ensuring rapid availability of electric
power.
Reduce NOXemissions by optimizing the fuel-to-air ratio at partial power loads.
Adjust the air flow to the compressor according to the requirements of thethermodynamic cycle.
Enable load control between approximately 60 % load and base load.
Components The major components of the compressor VIGV system are:
Inlet guide vane row (52 vanes) with adjusting ring. Linear amplifier (hydraulic cylinder) .
Pilot proportional valve for linear amplifier.
Safety and monitoring equipment.

Function Description
The angular position of the VIGV row adjusts the air flow through-the axialcompressor, modulating it between start-up and base load conditions.The row, sometimes called the zero compressor stage, is connected to anadjustment ring via a tie rod. The adjustment ring, which runs around thecircumference of the compressor housing at the air inlet section, is mounted so thatit can turn. It is driven by a linear amplifier, which is connected to the power oilsystem.
A pilot proportional valve regulates the position of the linear amplifier, which isindirectly monitored by the position (angle) measurement. The proportional valveallows the VIGV row to assume any position between open and closed.The angular position of the VIGV row, and the position of the piston inside the
proportional valve are monitored by electric current position converters.The position of the proportional valve is automatically set in a closed loop by anelectrical signal via an amplifier card from EGATROL.

Operation and SupervisionGeneral
The system must be operated in accordance to the Operation Manual and theOperation Concept which should be read carefully.
Start-up of the Gas Turboset
Before starting acceleration of the rotor the VIGV start opening by a programmedcharacteristic from closed position (angle -65) to open position (angle -0). This iscompleted when rotational speed has reached approx. 70 rpm. The VIGVs remainin this position during the purge cycle of the gas turbine and - if available the heatrecovery steam generator.After purging, when reaching the sequencer step ignition the VIGV position ischanged to start up position (-30) and remains unchanged during furtheracceleration, synchronization and as long as the gas turboset is in lower loadrange.

Normal Operation (Load Operation)
Load control in the part-load range between minimum load to about 65 % ofrelative load is done by increasing the turbine temperature, the VIGV aremaintained in idle position. Between about 65 % of relative load to base load theair massflow through the gas turboset is increased by opening the VIGV to fullyopen position.

Shutdown
During normal unloading, the operating sequence of the variable guide vanes is inthe reverse order to that during the loading cycle. At about 65 % of relative load the
VGVs are in the start position again. They remain in this position during furtherdeloading, idle cooling time and shut-down until 35 rpm. Below that rotor speedthe VIGVs change to fully closed position.

Compressor Off-line Washing
During the spraying cycle the VIGV are fully open, during drying the VIGV close toidle position.
Standstill of Gas Turboset
The variable guide vane row is in the fully closed position when the gas turboset is
at a standstill.
Monitoring Equipment
AngleMeasurement
The angle of the variable inlet guide vanes is measured by two angle transmittersand displayed on the Operator Station. The two angle transmitters are mounted
directly to the shaft ends of two variable guide vanes.An alarm is activated whenever the angle of the VIGV deviates from the requiredposition.Protective load shedding of the gas turboset is initiated if the angle continues todecrease below the preset limit or the difference between the required angle andfeedback (actual angle) exceeds the preset limit.

Monitoring Equipment (continued)
Position
Measurement
The spool position of the pilot proportional valves is monitored. This actual position
is transmitted to the amplifier card where the value is compared with the set valuegiven from EGATROL.
Protection and Fault CausesGeneral
The protection functions of the control system provide the greatest possible safeoperation at the highest possible efficiency and availability. They operate on threethreshold levels:
Alarm annunciation
Protective load shedding
Trip of gas turboset
All protection interventions must be promptly investigated, the source found andrectified so that unit can be returned to normal operation as fast as possible.
Annunciation in the case of protection interventions appear on the OS, includingname, KKS code, values and other relevant information to indicate the source of
malfunction.
Malfunction and possible Causes
Incorrect angle of the VIGV
Possible
Causes:
Linear amplifier or electronic controller defective.
Angle transmitter is defective.RequiredAction:
Investigate until the source of the problem is found, take allactions necessary to bring the gas turboset to normal operation.

Carefully review the objectives stated on page 5 of this lesson together with the TestQuestions for Verification of Learning Progress.Note that this lesson is not complete without the system specific and overall plantOperation & Maintenance Documentation.
Summary The purpose of the Variable Inlet Guide Vanes I(VIGVs) is mainly to control the loadoutput of the gas turboset. Below of about 60 % of base load the VIGVs are set at
-30. When increasing the load the VIGVs are opened thus increasing the massflowof air through the gas turbine. At base load the VIGVs are in fully open position.The VIGVs further reduce the NOXemissions by optimizing the fuel-to-air ratio atpartial load.The training lesson describes the main components, how the system functions andits different operation modes.
