Zusammenfassung: | PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide methods, systems, and apparatus for detecting material defects in combustors of combustion turbine engines.SOLUTION: A system for detecting defects 173 in a combustion duct 148 of a combustion system of a combustion turbine engine while the combustion turbine engine operates, wherein the combustion duct 148 includes a hot side, which is exposed to combustion gases and a cold side opposing the hot side. The system may include: an indicator coating 163 disposed on an outer surface of the combustion duct 148, the indicator coating comprising a detectable substance; and a gas sensor positioned downstream of the combustor, the gas sensor configured to take a measurement of the amount of the detectable substance in the combustion products of the combustion turbine engine. |
