Abstract
A turbine inlet temperature operating section (15) determines the turbine inlet temperature T4 based on the flow rate Gf and temperature Tf of fuel being supplied to a combustor (3) and the flow rate G3 and temperature T3 of air. Based on the turbine inlet temperature T4, a pilot ratio operating section (16) sets a pilot ratio, and a bypass valve operating section (17) and an IGV opening operating section (18) generate a bypass valve control signal and an IGV control signal, respectively.
