Definitions

  • a gas turbine plant which is preferably used in a power plant for driving a generator for generating electricity, ie a stationary gas turbine plant, usually comprises a compressor for compressing a working gas, downstream of a combustion chamber for heating the working gas and downstream of a gas turbine for relaxing the working gas.
  • the gas turbine has an exhaust gas outlet through which the expanded working gas, which is combustion exhaust gas of the combustion chamber, exits the gas turbine. From the exhaust gas outlet, the exhaust gas is supplied via a corresponding exhaust pipe, for example, an exhaust system or - in a combined cycle power plant - a steam generator for generating steam for operating a steam turbine.
