The greatest shortcoming of a gas turbine is that to decrease its inlet temperature, the burning chamber operates with a large excess of air which significantly reduces the efficiency. This work presents the solving of the problem by operating in the burner with lack of air and adding the rest of it, up to the stoichiometric value, thought the internals' cooling channels of the first part of the turbine. This ensures significant increasing of the efficiency and prevention of NO(x) emissions.
