Micro Gas Turbine Data

Overview

These experimental data support the paper "Knowledge-Guided Learning of Temporal Dynamics and its Application to Gas Turbines", presented at 15th ACM International Conference on Future Energy Systems (e-Energy '24), Singapore.
The data was collected from a commercial micro gas turbine designed for residential use, generating approximately 3 kW of electrical power. Its purpose was to model the turbine's behavior over time using machine learning techniques.

Folder Structure

• data: Contains 8 experimental time series data in CSV format, collected from the micro gas turbine.
• plots: Includes results from experiments and the code used to generate plots from the paper.
• plots/create_plots.ipynb: A Jupyter notebook containing code to create the plots.

Time Series Data

Each time series represents a separate experiment where the input control voltage was varied over time, and the resulting output electrical power of the micro gas turbine was measured. The data has a resolution of approximately 1 second and is structured in a CSV file with the following columns:

• time: Time in seconds, denoted as $t$.
• input_voltage: Input control voltage in volts, representing the control signal $x_t$.
• el_power: electrical power in watts, representing the output signal $y_t$.

Prediction Task

The data was used for a time-series prediction task, aiming to predict el_power based on input_voltage. In the paper, the objective was to forecast the output $y_t$ given the control inputs $xt, x{t-1}, \dots, x_{t-N+1}$.
