Abstract
The claimed invention is a method for determining a relationship between a metal temperature of a turbine component and an operating condition of a turbine housing the component. The claimed invention is also a method for determining consumed operating life for a turbine component. The invention further comprises a system for determining an amount of remaining useful life in a turbine component. The invention further comprises a method for determining a relationship between a stress state of a turbine component and an operating condition of a turbine housing the component.
