description This study presents a method for diagnosing the technical condition of aviation gas turbine engines (GTE) using recurrent neural networks (RNN) and long short-term memory networks (LSTM). The primary focus is on comparing the effectiveness of these models for forecasting key operating parameters of GTEs, such as vibrations, turbine-inlet temperatures, and rotor speeds of low and high pressure. The research involved thorough data cleaning and normalization, including handling missing values, normalization using Min-Max Scaling, outlier removal, data decorrelation, and time series smoothing. The RNN and LSTM models were trained using the backpropagation through time (BPTT) algorithm to accurately forecast GTE operating parameters. The results show that both models demonstrate high forecasting accuracy, but the RNN models perform better in most parameters. For vibration parameters (VIB_N1FNT1, VIB_N1FNT2, VIB_N2FNT1, and VIB_N2FNT2), RNN models achieved lower RMSE and MAE values, confirming their higher accuracy. For temperature parameters (EGT1 and EGT2), RNN models also showed higher accuracy rates. Meanwhile, LSTM models achieved better results for some rotor speed parameters (N21 and N22). The findings emphasize the necessity of choosing the appropriate model based on the nature of data and the specifics of the parameters to be forecast. Future research may focus on developing hybrid approaches that combine the advantages of both models to achieve optimal results in diagnosing the technical condition of GTEs.
