1. Gas turbine control system
 Control of gas turbine is done by
 Startup control
 Acceleration control
 Speed control
 Temperature control
 Shut down control
 Manual control

2. 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

3. 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
loop is allowed to fuel control system

4. Simplify control schematic

5. Control shem.

6. 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
hot gas parts during the sequence

7. 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.
