ABSTRACT:
A turbine plant includes a steam turbine, a gas turbine connected to the steam turbine, a generator, and an analyzing apparatus. The steam turbine includes a high pressure steam turbine, an intermediate pressure steam turbine, and a low pressure steam turbine. The turbine plant is adapted to be driven by a selected one of natural gas and oil. The analyzing apparatus collects estimates of the steam turbine output based on the inlet steam pressure of the intermediate steam turbine with a correction value. The correction value is calculated including the influence of the difference between the gas fuel case and the oil fuel case. The analyzing apparatus estimates a gas turbine output by calculating the difference between the estimated steam turbine output and the total output of the turbine plant. The gas turbine is operated using the estimated gas turbine output.
