GAS TURBINE (VERSIONS) AND METHOD OF GAS TURBINE OPERATION Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC F02C3/00 

FIELD: power engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to power engineering. Gas turbine includes a compressor, a combustion chamber arranged downstream of the compressor and a heat exchange system, which receives a compressed working fluid medium from the compressor. Between the heat exchange system and the combustion chamber there is a hydraulic connection receiving the compressed working fluid medium from the heat exchange system. Gas turbine includes further a conditioner being in flowing connection with the compressor and a hydraulic coupling arranged between the heat exchange system and the conditioner and receiving the cooling medium from the heat exchange system. Method of the gas turbine operation includes providing passage of the compressed working fluid medium from the compressor to the heat exchange system, transfer of heat energy from the compressed working fluid medium to the heat exchange system, provision of the compressed working fluid medium passage from the heat exchange system to the combustion chamber and providing passage of the cooling medium from the heat exchange system to the compressor inlet hole.

EFFECT: invention increases efficiency of a gas turbine operation.
