Abstract
A gas turbine installation includes an air compressor, a combustor for burning fuel together with air discharged from the compressor, and a turbine driven by combustion gas generated by the combustor. The installation includes a spraying apparatus disposed in a suction air chamber on the upstream side of the air compressor and a water adding apparatus for adding moisture to high pressure air supplied from the compressor and which is disposed between the air compressor and the combustor. A heat exchanger is provided between the water adding apparatus and the combustor for heating air prior to the air entering the combustor.
