Gas turbine

Abstract

A gas turbine, in which compressed air that is compressed by a compressor (11) is mixed with fuel in a combustor (12), the mixture is burned to produce combustion gas, and the combustion gas is provided to a turbine (13) to produce rotative power, includes: a pressurizing unit (41) that pressurizes some of the compressed air that is compressed by the compressor (11); a combustor cooling unit (42) that cools the combustor (12) with the compressed air that is pressurized by the pressurizing unit (41); and a compressed air circulation line (46) that provides the compressed air to the casing of the combustor (12). In the gas turbine, the combustor can be cooled by minimizing pressure loss of the compressed air, and degradation of the power efficiency can be prevented.
