A system and method reduce vibrations in a blade mounted on a hub of a wind turbine rotor when the rotor is in a limited yaw capacity state with a defined allowable yaw sweep. An allowable yaw sweep is defined for the limited yaw capacity of the rotor. With a sensor in communication with a controller, actual vibrations in the blade are monitored with the rotor at an initial yaw position. Upon detection of vibrations in the blade, the controller determines a first new yaw position within the allowable yaw sweep and issues a yaw command to a yaw system to yaw the rotor to the first new yaw position. At the first new yaw position, the method and system continue to monitor for actual vibrations in the blade.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR YAWING A WIND TURBINE BASED ON AVOIDING BLADE VIBRATIONS AT SPECIFIED WIND SPEEDS WHEN YAW ANGLE SWEEP IS CONSTRAINED
A system and method reduce vibrations in a blade mounted on a hub of a wind turbine rotor when the rotor is in a limited yaw capacity state with a defined allowable yaw sweep. Vibration risk zones are defined based on wind direction and actual wind parameters acting on the blade are determined with a sensor. With a controller and based on the actual wind parameters, the following conditions are determined: (a) if a present yaw position of the rotor is in one of the vibration risk zones; and (b) if one or more of the wind parameters is at a risk threshold associated with the vibration risk zone. When conditions (a) and (b) are met, a yaw command is issued to yaw the rotor to a new yaw position within the allowable yaw sweep where the rotor is not in one of the vibration risk zones or is in a different vibration risk zone where the one or more wind parameters are not at the risk threshold associated with the different vibration risk zone

A system and method reduce vibrations in a blade on a hub of a wind turbine rotor when the rotor is in a non-operational and limited yaw capacity state. A yaw sweep is defined for the limited yaw capacity state. A controller determines a first yaw command to align the rotor into the wind and within a first range relative to the wind direction, the first range defining a forward zone of reduced or no blade vibrations caused by the incoming wind. When the first yaw command exceeds the yaw sweep, the controller determines a second yaw command that aligns the rotor away from the wind within a second range relative to a reciprocal heading of the wind direction, the second range defining a reverse zone of reduced or no vibrations caused by the incoming wind.

PIPE NAVIGATION APPARATUS WITH BYPASS FLUID CHANNEL
A navigation apparatus (102) for use in navigating a pipe (104) having a sidewall defining an interior cavity (112) is provided that includes a body assembly (134) configured to move through the interior cavity of the pipe. The navigation apparatus also includes a channel (101) defining a fluid passageway (148) extending at least partly between a first end (144) and a second end (146) of the body assembly, an inlet (150, 152) for fluid from the interior cavity of the pipe to enter the fluid passageway, and an outlet (150/152) for the fluid to exit the fluid passageway and return to the interior cavity of the pipe. The channel is configured to allow the fluid to flow through the fluid passageway and from the first to the second end of the body assembly as the body assembly moves through the interior cavity of the pipe.
A tunneling device includes a body assembly, an expander coupled to the body assembly and extending along a longitudinal axis, and a tip coupled to the expander. The expander is disposed between a force transmitter and the tip. The expander is expandable in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis between a first configuration having a first width measured perpendicular to the longitudinal axis and a second configuration having a second width measured perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The tip has a width measured perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The first width of the expander is equal to or less than the width of the tip. The force transmitter is configured to deliver a force through the expander to the tip to move the tip in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis with the expander in the second configuration.

A radiation shield assembly for blocking radiation at a gas turbine piping connection joint is provided. The radiation shield assembly includes a radiation shield configured to surround the gas turbine piping connection joint. The radiation shield includes at least two shield portions coupled to one another at a pair of flanged joints. Each shield portion of the at least two shield portions include an inner shell, an outer shell, and insulation disposed between the inner shell and the outer shell.
A system includes a gas turbine having a turbine shaft disposed along a rotational axis, a turbine casing disposed circumferentially about the turbine shaft, a combustion gas path disposed between the turbine shaft and the turbine casing, a turbine stage disposed in the combustion gas path, wherein the turbine stage includes a plurality of turbine vanes disposed upstream from a plurality of turbine blades. The system includes an isothermal expansion system coupled to the turbine stage. The isothermal expansion system includes a plurality of fluid injectors configured to vary axial positions of combustion within a turbine stage expansion of the turbine stage to reduce temperature variations over the turbine stage expansion, wherein at least one fluid injector of the plurality of fluid injectors is coupled to each of the plurality of turbine vanes.

Systems and methods to locate the position of cooling holes on an outer surface of a turbine engine component, based on a three-dimensional measurement along an X-axis, a Y-axis, and a Z-axis, and an extracted two-dimensional measurement along the X-axis and the Y-axis. The two-dimensional data is analyzed to find a common geometric feature of the component and determine a scan area based on the common geometric feature. The component is measured within the scan area to locate a cooling hole located on the outer surface of the component. A surface profile of the cooling hole is extracted along the X-axis and the Y-axis, and an orientation of the cooling hole is extracted along the Z-axis. A three-dimensional coordinate set of the cooling hole is calculated based on the surface profile and the orientation.

TURBOMACHINE COMPRESSOR EXIT REGION SEAL FLOW CIRCUIT
A turbomachine compressor includes a final stage of vanes having tip shrouds in a circumferential groove of an inner casing. Each tip shroud defines a downstream opening with an aft wall of the groove. Under each tip shroud, an exit channel extends to a high pressure packing seal (HPPS) cavity to reduce leakage of fluid from downstream to an area upstream of the final stage of vanes. A first seal in the circumferential groove diverts compressed gas entering the downstream opening into the HPPS cavity. The exit channel can extend axially or radially, and a second seal may be included between the exit channel and the downstream opening for a radial exit channel.
