Gas turbine is an important equipment for China to achieve carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals and promote the clean and low-carbon transformation of energy system. Challenges are identified for gas turbine, such as high failure risk and frequent load regulation in power generation. Thus, to ensure safe, reliable and efficient operation of gas turbine is of vital importance. This study focuses on the operation of gas turbines in power plants, establishes model tools for gas turbine performance monitoring and operation optimization, develops gas turbine performance analysis methods, develops the method to formulate gas turbine optimized operation strategies, provides references for the operation of gas turbines in power plants, and then improves the level of gas turbine overall performance research, provides guidance for the engineering practice of gas turbine performance monitoring and operation optimization in power plants. In this study, a gas turbine mechanism model was established, which compressor inlet guide vanes (IGV), combustor staged combustion and turbine cooling were taken into account. This model was validated by comparing the results of the model with the field operation data of a typical M701F gas turbine. The maximal percentage error was 5.74%, which proved that the accuracy of the results calculated by the model met the requirements of performance analysis by comparing with the published literature. Impacts of IGV angle and turbine inlet temperature on NOx emission were studied. It can be found that as the increase of turbine inlet temperature at any fixed IGV angle, NOx emission first increased and then decreased. With the increase of IGV angle, NOx emission decreased when the turbine inlet temperature is low, and increased when the turbine inlet temperature is high. A gas turbine mechanism-data hybrid model was established based on the dominant factor method, and the model was validated by comparing the results of the model with the field operation data of a typical PG9171E gas turbine. As for the outputs of the model, such as the relative errors of compressor outlet temperature, combustor outlet temperature and turbine outlet temperature, average absolute values and maximum values of the relative errors were all less than 0.3% and 1%, respectively. Average absolute values of relative errors of compressor outlet pressure and turbine outlet temperature were both less than 0.8%. It had been found that the hybrid model had high accuracy, which provided an accurate and reliable tool for gas turbine performance monitoring. This hybrid model and the mechanism model formed the model basis for gas turbine operation research. Besides, the gas turbine operation window under the integration of multiple constraints was studied. According to the constraints, the operation window was divided into feasible region, optional region, risk region and invalid region. The gas turbine operation windows were calculated under different ambient temperature, ambient pressure, ambient relative humidity and fuel composition. This paper revealed logics of gas turbine off design performance when changing ambient conditions and fuel composition, which can provide guidance for gas turbine operation in power plants and help technicians in mastering the safe, reliable and efficient operation range of gas turbine under different conditions. The method of gas turbine operation strategy analysis and optimized operation strategy formulation based on operation windows was developed. The load regulation trajectory and the variation logics of each parameter under different operation strategies were studied. Aiming at the optimization of safety, thermal economic and environmental protection, the regulation trajectory is determined by combining the inlet guide vanes (IGV) regulation, turbine inlet temperature (TIT) regulation, turbine outlet temperature (TOT) regulation and other regulation methods. The method to determine optimized operation strategies of gas turbine under different requirements was developed.
