A gas turbine installation which includes a compressor which compresses
supplied air and discharges the same, a combustor which combusts the
compressed air obtained from the compressor and fuel and produces
combustion gas, a turbine which is driven by combustion gas provided from
the combustor, a regenerative heat exchanger which heats all or a part of
the compressed air being supplied from the compressor to the combustor by
making use of the heat of the exhaust gas exhausted from the turbine and
a plurality of water spraying devices which are provided at positions
from an intake air chamber of the compressor to the outlet of low
temperature side gas flow passage in the regenerative heat exchanger and
is characterized in that the regenerative heat exchanger is constituted
by connecting in series a plurality of heat exchangers having different
heat transfer surface configurations. Thereby, a gas turbine installation
is provided which suppresses generation of erosion and scales due to
water droplets and shows a high efficiency and a high output.
