Gas turbine control system
Control of gas turbine is done by
Startup control
Acceleration control
Speed control
Temperature control
Shut down control
Manual control
How to determine operating condition
The sensors ,( detected turbine speed,
exhaust thermocouple ,compressor
discharge pressure,and other
parameter)are used to determine the
operating condition of the gas turbine
Fuel stroke reference (FSR)
FSR is the command signal for fuel flow
Control of gas turbine is done by the
lowest FSR(FSR SU, FSR ACC ,FSRN,
FSRT,FSR SD,FSR MAN)
The lowest FSR value of the six control
Control shem.

Start up/Shut down sequence
and control
Start up function objective
Bring the gas turbine from zero speed
to full speed safely by providing proper
fuel to established flame and accelerate
the turbine safely
Minimize the low cycle fatigue of the
Speed detector
Speed is the important parameter
during start up because the sequence
of start up is the relation of speed
Turbine speed is measured by magnetic
pick up
Speed detector sent signal to Mark V to
convert electrical signal to be the
turbine speed in percent or rpm.

Speed control
The speed control system control the
speed and load of the gas turbine to
maintain speed at 100% at any load
Speed control software will change FSR
in proportion to the difference between
TNH(turbine speed)and TNR(speed ref.)
Turbine drive generator operating
speed range normally from 95%-107%
Speed droop
Droop speed control is the proportional
control changing the FSR in proportion
to the difference between actual turbine
speed and turbine speed reference as
the equation below
Droop control algorithm

Synchronizing control
TNR for synchronizing is 100.3% to
keep the generator faster than the grid
If frequency has varied enough the
speed matching circuit adjust TNR to
maintain turbine speed 0.2 to 0.4 %
faster than the grid

Temperature control
The temperature control system will
limit fuel flow to gas turbine to maintain
internal operating temperature within
gas turbine limitation of turbine hot gas
path parts.
Firing temperature is the temperature
exists at first stage nozzle. This
temperature must be limited by control
system
Firing temperature
It is impractical to measure temperature
direct to the combustion chamber or at
the turbine inlet So, the control system
control the exhaust temperature
instead.
Firing temperature as a function of fuel
flow (FSR)
FSR temp. control curve are used as
Exhaust temperature control
18 Chromel alumel TC are installed at
exhaust plenum to sent signal to Mark V
Exhaust temperature control soft ware

2.Temp control bias calculation
3.Temp reference selection
Exhaust temp control command
Is the temperature control command
(TTRXB)compare the exhaust temperature
control set point(TTXM).The soft ware
program converts the temperature error to
fuel stroke reference signal FSRT

Fuel control system
Fuel control system will change fuel
flow to the combustion in response to
the fuel stroke reference signal(FSR)
FSR1 call for liquid fuel flow
FSR2
call for gas fuel flow
FSR =
Liquid fuel control system
When liquid fuel is selected and start. The
control system will check L4 logic(1). At
minimum speed L20FLX(FO. trip valve) and
L20CF(fuel oil clutch) will energized.
When GT. Firing FSRSU will go to control
turbine through fuel splitter and liquid fuel
flow command FQROUT will demand to fuel
oil by pass valve to control liquid fuel flow to
combustion chamber.
