  • Patent number: 10619564
    Abstract: A gas turbine includes a compressor, a turbine, an extraction line, and a component introduction line. A compressed air from an intermediate compression stage of the compressor, as an extraction air, is extracted through the extraction line and is introduced to a first component configuring a portion of the turbine casing through the extraction line. The extraction air, which has passed through the first component, is introduced to a second component serving as a component configuring the turbine through the component introduction line. The second component is a low-pressure component, which is disposed under a pressure environment lower than a pressure of the compressed air at an outlet of the intermediate compression stage.
