ABSTRACT:
The cooling of a gas turbine is a critical problem and will consume a considerable quantity of compressed air at the temperature ordinarily available. To improve the cooling properties, a portion of the air delivered by the compressor is divided off and is conveyed to an expansion member, where it is further divided into a hot and a cold fraction. This cold fraction, which can have a temperature well below the freezing point, is used, preferably mixed with air delivered directly from the compressor, for cooling the turbine inlet means.
