Abstract

A gas turbine plant includes a connection line configured to connect an outlet of a compressor high-pressure stage and an inlet of a turbine via a combustor, a bypass line configured to cause some or all of air compressed at a compressor low-pressure stage to bypass the compressor high-pressure stage and to be supplied to the connection line, and an adjustment device configured to adjust a flow rate of the air flowing through the bypass line. A plurality of types of fluid are supplied to the connection line in addition to the air compressed by the compressor, and during operation of the gas turbine plant, supply of at least one type of fluid of the plurality of types of fluid to the connection line is stopped according to an operating state of the gas turbine plant.
