Abstract
In a gas-turbine group which is operated with sequential combustion, preferably via two combustion chambers (4, 9) having in each case turbines arranged downstream, the temperature of the exhaust gases (8) from the first turbine (5) is recorded directly in front of the self-ignition point in the second combustion chamber (9) for the dosing of the fuel quantity for the first combustion chamber (4). The temperature is recorded by means of thermocouples (17) which are integrated in fuel lances (16) of the second combustion chamber (9), as a result of which influence is at the same time exerted on the fuel quantity (10) of this combustion chamber (9).
