Abstract
The main gas path components, namely compressor and turbine, are inherently reliable but the operation of the aero
engines under hostile environments, results into engine breakdowns and performance deterioration. Performance
deterioration increases the operating cost, due to the reduction in thrust output and higher fuel consumption, and also
increases the engine maintenance cost. In times when economic considerations dominate airline operators’ strategies,
carrying out unnecessary rectification, can be very costly and time consuming. In an attempt to minimize such
unexpected circumstances, having detailed knowledge prior to any inspection will allow the gas turbine user to take some
of the maintenance action when it is necessary. Advanced engine-fault diagnostics tools offer the possibility of
identifying degradation at the module level, determining the trends of these degradations during the usage of the engine,
and planning the maintenance action ahead.
Keywords: aircraft, gas turbine, diagnostic methods, physical faults, performance deterioration

(neglecting any effect of measurement noise and bias). Root-Mean-Square (RMS) is equal or lower to the
convergence criteria δ [27]. The convergence criterion δ is a
very small number, around 0.01 or less, and is being used
through all the non-linear GPA calculations. However, this

Non-linear GPA
The assumption of linearity becomes increasingly false,
when deteriorations cause the engine to operate further away
from the condition for which the matrix was calculated [20].
The development of non-linear GPA addresses the non-
linear nature of Eq.1 and provides a significant advantage on
the severe limitations of linear GPA models. The non-

iteratively, until a converged solution is obtained [11]. In 1960, Kalman published a recursive solution to the
discrete data linear filtering problem [22] and in 1961,
Kalman and Bucy followed up a paper on the continuous-
time version [23]. The filter was finally called the Kalman
Filter, although Shet and Rao argued that it is an algorithm
rather than a filter [24]. Kalman Filter (KF) is an optimal
recursive data processing algorithm, used in order to provide
an estimation of the health of the engine components in
presence of measurement noise and sensor bias [22,25,26].
A KF processes all available measurement data regardless of
their precision, plus prior knowledge about the system and
measuring devices, to produce an estimate of the desired

are non-linear, a suitable extension to the KF has to be
sought. The most common approach to non-linear systems is
the Extended Kalman Filters (EKF) and the Iterated
Extended Kalman Filters (IEKF) [59-61]. The EKF and
IEKF apply to non-linear systems by simply linearising all
the non-linear models so that the traditional linear KF
equation can be applied. However both produce biased and
sub-optimal estimates, due to the linearization of the
functions which leads to a low accuracy estimation.
