The SPEEDTRONIC™ Mark VI turbine control is the current state-of-the-art control for GE turbines that have a heritage of more than 30 years of successful
operation. It is designed as a complete integrated control, protection, and monitoring system for generator and mechanical drive applications of gas and steam
turbines. It is also an ideal platform for integrating all power island and balance-of-plant controls. Hardware and software are designed with close coordination
between GE’s turbine design engineering and controls engineering to insure that your control system provides the optimum turbine performance and you
receive a true “system” solution. With Mark VI, you receive the benefits of GE’s unmatched experience with an advanced turbine control platform.
Mark VI control systems are available in Simplex and Triple Redundant forms for small applications and large integrated systems with control ranging from a
single module to many distributed modules. The name Triple Module Redundant (TMR) is derived from the basic architecture with three completely separate
and independent Control Modules, power supplies, and IONets. Mark VI is the third generation of triple redundant control systems that were pioneered by GE in
1983. System throughput enables operation of up to nine, 21-slot VME racks of I/O cards at 40 ms including voting the data. Inputs are voted in software in a
scheme called Software Implemented Fault Tolerance (SIFT). The VCMI card in each Control Module receives inputs from the Control Module back-plane and
other modules via “its own” IONet.
In addition to general purpose I/O, the Mark VI has a large variety of cards that are designed for direct interface to unique sensors and actuators. This reduces or
eliminates a substantial amount of interposing instrumentation in many applications. As a result, many potential single-point failures are eliminated in the most
critical area for improved running reliability and reduced long-term maintenance. Direct interface to the sensors and actuators also enables the diagnostics to
directly interrogate the devices on the equipment for maximum effectiveness. This data is used to analyze device and system performance. A subtle benefit of
this design is that spare-parts inventories are reduced by eliminating peripheral instrumentation. The VTUR card is designed to integrate several of the unique
sensor interfaces used in turbine control systems on a single card. In some applications, it works in conjunction with the I/O interface in the Backup Protection
Module described below.
The operator interface is commonly referred to as the Human Machine Interface (HMI). It is a PC with a Microsoft® Windows NT® operating system supporting
client/server capability, a CIMPLICITY® graphics display system, a Control System Toolbox for maintenance, and a software interface for the Mark VI and other
control systems on the network. (See Figure 3.) It can be applied as:
■ The primary operator interface for one or multiple units
■ A backup operator interface to the plant DCS operator interface
■ A gateway for communication links to other control systems
■ A permanent or temporary maintenance station
■ An engineer’s workstation
The Mark VI is a fully programmable control system. Application software is created from inhouse software automation tools which select proven GE control and
protection algorithms and integrate them with the I/O, sequencing, and displays for each application. A library of software is provided with general-purpose
blocks, math blocks, macros, and application specific blocks. It uses 32-bit floating point data (IEEE-854) in a QNX operating system with real-time applications,
multitasking, prioritydriven preemptive scheduling, and fast context switching.
