GAS TURBINE SYSTEM

Abstract:

Provided is a gas turbine system in which electricity consumption of a battery when starting or stopping a gas turbine engine is reduced and sufficient battery power during flight can be secured. The present invention includes a plurality of gas turbine engines 21, 22, and 23, generators 41, 42, and 43, a battery 5, and a controller 7. The controller 7 decides at least one main starting gas turbine engine 21 from the plurality of gas turbine engines before the plurality of gas turbine engines are started, starts the main starting gas turbine engine 21 using electricity from the battery 5, and starts the secondary starting gas turbine engines 22 and 23 of the plurality of gas turbine engines other than the main starting gas turbine engine 21 using electricity from the generator 41 connected to the main starting gas turbine engine 21 after the main starting gas turbine engine 21 reaches a steady state.
