Patent attributes
A system for predicting performance of a liquid fuel system includes a processor and a memory communicatively coupled to the processor, wherein the memory stores instructions which when executed by the processor perform operations. The operations include establishing a baseline parameter for at least one physical parameter of a nozzle or a valve associated with at least one combustor of the liquid fuel system with at least one time. The operations also include obtaining one or more operational parameters associated with the liquid fuel system from one or more sensors during operation of a gas turbine engine. The operations further include utilizing an operational model of a fuel flow divider to output an action associated with the liquid fuel system based at least on the baseline parameter and the one or more operational parameters.
