Abstract

Embodiments of the invention can provide systems and methods for determining a target exhaust temperature for gas turbines. In one embodiment of the disclosure, there is disclosed a method for determining a target exhaust temperature for a gas turbine. The method can include determining a target exhaust temperature based at least in part on a compressor pressure condition; determining a temperature adjustment to the target exhaust temperature based at least in part on steam humidity; and changing the target exhaust temperature based at least in part on the temperature adjustment.
