4. INTRODUCTION
A gas turbine power station, also
known as a gas-fired power plant, is a
type of power generation facility that
utilizes gas turbines to generate
electricity. It is a thermal power station
that converts the chemical energy of a
fuel, typically natural gas, into
mechanical energy through a
combustion process. This mechanical
energy is then used to rotate a turbine,
which is connected to a generator to
produce electrical energy.

WORKING PRINCIPLE
 Air intake: The process starts with the intake of air into the gas
turbine. The air is drawn in from the atmosphere and passed
through a filter to remove any impurities.
 Compressor: The compressed air is then sent to the
compressor, where it is compressed to a higher pressure. The
compression increases the temperature of the air.
 Combustion: The compressed air is mixed with fuel in the
combustion chamber, where it is ignited. This process creates a
high-temperature, high-pressure gas that expands rapidly.
 Expansion: The hot gas expands and passes through a series of
turbine blades. As the gas expands, it loses pressure and
temperature, and the kinetic energy of the expanding gas is
converted into mechanical energy

WORKING PRINCIPLE
 Power generation: The rotating turbine blades are
connected to a shaft, which is connected to a generator. As
the turbine rotates, it drives the generator, converting the
mechanical energy into electrical energy.
 Exhaust: The exhaust gas from the turbine is expelled into
the atmosphere through a stack. The hot exhaust can be
used to generate steam in a heat recovery steam generator
to produce additional power through a steam turbine.
 Cooling: The gas turbine requires cooling to maintain its
efficiency and prevent damage due to high temperatures.
Cooling systems, such as air coolers or water injection, are
used to extract heat from the turbine and maintain the
desired operating temperature.
 Control systems: Various control systems are implemented
to monitor and regulate the operation of the gas turbine
power station. These systems control the fuel supply, air
intake, and other parameters to ensure optimal
performance and efficiency.
