Abstract
In a method for increasing the compressor-related pressure drop of the gas turbine (8) of a gas turbine group with a waste-heat steam generator (13) connected downstream, an injector (5), through the mixing nozzle of which the precompressed air (4) from the compressor (2) flows, acts directly upstream of the gas turbine (8). At least part of the steam (10) produced in the waste-heat steam generator (13) is admitted to the driving nozzle of the injector (5), as a result of which the compressor air (4) is further compressed without consumption of power from the yield of the gas turbine (8).
