Abstract
Failure of welding connection of gas diffuser liner and exhaust casing is one of the failure modes of V94.2 gas turbines which has occurred in some power plants. This defect is one of the concerns of customers which must be addressed before they are willing to accept the final commissioning of this product. Accordingly, the risk priority of this failure was evaluated by failure modes and effect analysis (FMEA) method to find out whether this failure is catastrophic for turbine performance and is harmful to humans.
By using history of 110 gas turbines of this model which are used in some power plants, the severity number, occurrence number and detection number of failure determined and consequently the Risk Priority Number (RPN) of failure determined. Finally, critically matrix of potential failures is created and illustrated that failure modes are located in safe zone
