Plant operators often face difficulties in predicting appropriate time for maintenance and would usually rely on time based predictive maintenance intervals as recommended by original equipment manufacturer (OEM). The objective of this work is to develop the computational model to find the isentropic head value using genetic programming. The isentropic head value is calculated from the OEM performance chart. Inlet mass flow rate and speed of the compressor are taken as the input value. The obtained results from the GP computational models show good agreement with experimental and target data with the average prediction error of 1.318. The genetic programming computational model will assist machinery engineers to quantify performance deterioration of gas compressor and the results from this study will be then utilized to estimate future maintenance requirements based on the historical data. In general, this genetic programming modelling provides a powerful solution for gas compressor operators to realize predictive maintenance approach in their operations. © Owned by the authors, published by EDP Sciences, 2016. publisher: EDP Sciences date: 2016 type: Conference or Workshop Item type: PeerReviewed identifier: Safiyullah, F. and Sulaiman, S.A. and Zakaria, N. and Jasmani, M.S. and Ghazali, S.M.A. (2016) Modeling the isentropic head value of centrifugal gas compressor using genetic programming.
