Power plant analyzer for analyzing a plurality of power plants

A method for analyzing a plurality of power plants, comprising:

• analyzing a first parameter indicative of fuel flow to a first power plant, a second parameter indicative of fuel burned in the first power plant, a third parameter indicative of fuel flow to a second power plant and a fourth parameter indicative of fuel burned in the second power plant;
• and
• generating, in response to analyzing, an alert for the first or the second power plant, and
• wherein analyzing the first, second, third and fourth parameters comprises carrying out a differential analysis between the first and third parameters to produce a first result, and to carry out a differential analysis between the second and fourth parameters to produce a second result, and comparing the first and second results.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium for storing a computer program for execution on a computer, causing the computer to perform:

• analyzing a first parameter indicative of fuel flow to a first power plant, a second parameter indicative of fuel burned in the first power plant, a third parameter indicative of fuel flow to a second power plant and a fourth parameter indicative of fuel burned in the second power plant;
• and
• generating, in response to analyzing, an alert for the first or the second power plant, and
• wherein analyzing the first, second, third and fourth parameters comprises carrying out a differential analysis between the first and third parameters to produce a first result, and to carry out a differential analysis between the second and fourth parameters to produce a second result, and comparing the first and second results.

An apparatus comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory including computer program code;
• the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to
• analyze a first parameter indicative of fuel flow to a first power plant, a second parameter indicative of fuel burned in the first power plant, a third parameter indicative of fuel flow to a second power plant and a fourth parameter indicative of fuel burned in the second power plant;
• and
• generate, in response to analyzing, an alert for the first or the second power plant, and
• wherein analyzing the first, second, third and fourth parameters comprises carrying out a differential analysis between the first and third parameters to produce a first result, and to carry out a differential analysis between the second and fourth parameters to produce a second result, and comparing the first and second results.
