ABSTRACT:
An LNG (liquefied natural gas) power plant has a heating/cooling device. The heating/cooling device is controlled by a command generated by a temperature control device. The temperature control device receives a heating value and a temperature of the fuel gas. The heating value of the fuel gas introduced to a gas turbine power generation unit from an LNG vaporization facility is detected by a heating value detector. The temperature of the fuel gas is detected by a temperature detector. A target temperature calculator installed in the temperature control device calculates a target temperature based on the heating value. A command generator installed in the temperature control device generates the command by comparing the target temperature and the fuel temperature.
