Monitoring systems to predict the remaining lifetime of gas turbine engines are a major field of investigation, in particular, the monitoring systems that allow an online prediction. This chapter introduces and analyzes a new approach to develop mathematical models to estimate unmeasured parameters in an engine lifetime monitoring system; these models in contrast to previously developed models allow an on-line monitoring of unmeasured parameters, which are necessary to perform an on-line lifetime prediction. The blade of a high-pressure turbine (HPT) of a twospool free turbine power plant is the test case. Several candidate models are developed for each unmeasured parameter; the best models are selected by their accuracy and robustness using the instrumental and truncation error as criteria. Ten faulty engine conditions are considered to analyze the model robustness. Two methods for model developing are compared; the first method uses physics-based models (proposed in this chapter), and the second method develops the models using the similarity concept (reference methodology). The results of the comparison show that the physics-based models are more robust to engine faults and overall they deliver a significantly more accurate prediction of the engine lifetime.
