Abstract

A control device is configured to control a gas turbine that is configured to compress a suctioned air with a compressor to obtain compressed air, mix a fuel supplied from a combustor with the compressed air to burn the fuel and the compressed air to generate a combustion gas, operate a turbine with the combustion gas to rotate a rotor, and discharge the combustion gas that has operated the turbine as a flue gas. The compressor includes an inlet guide vane which is capable of adjusting a degree of opening and is on an air-suction side, and the control device is configured to execute temperature adjustment control to control the degree of opening of the inlet guide vane along a temperature adjustment line indicating an upper limit temperature of a flue gas temperature defined according to a load of the gas turbine.
