Patent number: 7117662Abstract: A gas turbine control system is disclosed which operates to stabilize the system frequency in a case of transitional variations of the system frequency without making the strength of hot gas path parts of the gas turbine below a maximum stress value of the hot gas path parts. When a system frequency abnormality is detected, the output of the gas turbine is adjusted to recover the system frequency by making a gas turbine combustion gas temperature control inoperative. For this purpose, there are provided a logical circuit operative to make the gas turbine combustion gas temperature control disabled or inoperative in response to an abnormal system frequency detection signal, and a recovery circuit that operates to cancel the inoperative state of the gas turbine combustion gas temperature control. The detection of an abnormal system frequency may be carried out by an outside signal. An abnormality detection unit may be provided in a combined cycle plant.Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 2006Date of Patent: October 10, 2006Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha ToshibaInventors: Kaiichirou Hirayama, Sayoko Kobayashi, legal representative, Yuka Kobayashi, legal representative, Hirokazu Kobayashi, legal representative, Tomoo Katauri, Yasuhiko Ootsuki, Takashi Mizuno, Tadashi Kobayashi, deceased
