Abstract
In a method for operating a gas turbogenerator set, an exhaust gas stream (13) from the last turbine (5) is divided at least into two part streams (14, 15) routed in parallel. The first part stream (14) flows through a recuperator (26), and the second part stream (15) flows through a steam generator (27). The steam quantity (16) obtained from the steam generator (27) is introduced at a suitable point into combustion air (2, 27) used for operating a combustion chamber (2) belonging to the gas turbogenerator set. The exhaust gases from the turbine are consequently optimally cooled to good effect, this resulting in maximized efficiency.
