US Patent 7600369 Gas turbine load control device

A gas turbine load control device includes load setting means, first bias setting means, second bias setting means, target output setting means, and so forth. The target output setting means sets up a target output by adding a positive side bias value to a load set value when the load setting means gradually increases the load set value in response to an increase in a requested load set value inputted from requested load setting means. The target output setting means sets up the target output by subtracting a negative side bias value from the load set value when the load setting means gradually decreases the load set value in response to a decrease in the requested load set value.
