Abstract: A gas turbine drives a power generator by rotating a turbine using combustion gas generated in a combustor as a result of supplying the combustor with fuel and compressed air from a compressor, which is provided with an inlet guide vane at a front stage. An operation control device of the gas turbine enables an IGV priority open flag when the inlet guide vane is not fully open and when the system frequency is lower than or equal to a predetermined threshold value ? or there is a request for increasing the output of the gas turbine. When the IGV priority open flag is enabled, the operation control device sets the degree of opening of the inlet guide vane to be larger than before. Accordingly, the output can be increased without having to increase the turbine inlet temperature, regardless of the operational state of the gas turbine.

Abstract: A fuel control method for a gas turbine with a combustor being formed of at least two groups of a pluralities of main nozzles for supplying fuel, and that supplies fuel from the main nozzles of all groups upon ignition of the combustor (S1), and supplies fuel from three main nozzles of a group A during subsequent acceleration of the gas turbine (S3). Because fuel is injected from a small number of the main nozzles during acceleration, the fuel flow rate per one main nozzle is increased, thereby increasing the fuel-air ratio (fuel flow rate/air flow rate) in a combustion region and improving the combustion characteristics. Accordingly, the generation of carbon monoxide and unburned hydrocarbon is reduced, whereby no bypass valve is required and manufacturing costs are reduced.
