Method for gas turbine operation during under-frequency operation through use of air extraction

摘要

In a gas turbine electric power generator where rotational speed of the gas turbine is synchronized to the electrical frequency of a power distribution grid and the gas turbine includes a compressor component, an air extraction path, and a control system for controlling an amount of compressor air extraction, a method is provided for controlling output power produced by a gas turbine. The method includes initiating compressor air extraction and controlling the amount of compressor air extraction.
