Abstract

A device for detecting combustion conditions in a plurality of combustors in a gas-turbine apparatus which includes the combustors and a gas turbine driven by combustion gas from the combustors, comprises a plurality of sensors for measuring concentration of unburnt component in the combustion gas, which is disposed on the downstream side of the gas turbine, a unit for obtaining a distribution pattern of the measured concentration and for investigating the obtained distribution pattern to detect combustion conditions in the combustors.
