ABSTRACT:
A fuel supply system is provided that supplies a fuel to a burner arrangement with at least one burner, in particular a gas turbine. The fuel supply system has at its input a control valve that feeds fuel into the fuel supply system as a function of its actuation. As a function of a requested burner output, a first setpoint is determined for a fuel mass flow with which the burner arrangement must be supplied in order to be able to furnish the required burner output. As a function of the first setpoint of the fuel mass flow, a second setpoint is determined for the fuel mass flow, which is fed into the fuel supply system by an actuation of a control valve. The second setpoint of the fuel mass flow is selected such that the fuel supply system fed therewith supplies the burner arrangement with the first setpoint of the fuel mass flow.
