Abstract
A method for determining the flow rate of combustible fluid injected into a combustion chamber (120) of a turbine (100) includes determining the cross section of the orifice of the at least one injector (112, 113, 114, 115) through which the combustible fluid is injected into the combustion chamber (120). The pressure of the combustible fluid upstream of the orifice of the injector (112, 113, 114, 115) is determined. The pressure downstream of the orifice of the injector (112, 113, 114, 115) is determined. The flow rate of combustible fluid flowing through the orifice of the at least one injector (112, 113, 114, 115) is determined.
