Today, gas turbines are one of the most widely-used power generating technologies. Gas turbines are a type of internal combustion (IC) engine in which burning of an air-fuel mixture produces hot gases that spin a turbine to produce power. It is the production of hot gas during fuel combustion, not the fuel itself that the gives gas turbines the name.

Gas turbines can employ a range of fuels, including natural gas, fuel oils, and synthetic fuels. Combustion occurs continuously in gas turbines, as opposed to reciprocating IC engines, in which combustion occurs intermittently. Progress in Gas Turbine Performance is of valuable for design, analyst, materials and maintenance engineers. Also manufacturers, researchers and scientists will benefit from the suitable and precise information delivered in this book. There has been a remarkable difference in the research and development regarding gas turbine technology for transportation and power generation. While being considered a key technology for base-load operations for many years, modern stationary gas turbines are in fact facing the challenge to balance electricity from variable renewables with that from flexible conventional power plants.
