Abstract
The gas turbine combustor and the operation method thereof are designed to minimize visualization of exhaust gas from the gas turbine upon switching of the gas turbine fuel from the oil fuel to the gas fuel. Upon switching of the combustion by the pilot burner from the oil burning to the gas burning, the gas fuel is supplied to the main burners so as to start the gas burning. Then the gas fuel is supplied to the pilot burner to start the gas burning.
