ABSTRACT:
A method of analysis of secondary-air circuits in gas-turbine plants includes defining an equivalent fluid-dynamic network of a secondary-air circuit of a gas-turbine plant. The equivalent fluid-dynamic network includes a plurality of elements, organized in branches and connected to nodes. For at least one element of the secondary-air circuit a principal component of flow and at least one auxiliary component of flow are calculated.
