To build the model General Electric GateCycle™ software was used. The methods of gas turbines modeling in the software were described. To represent correctness of the model, there were performed computations for 40% and 70% load for 0.9, 14 and 30°C ambient temperature and 100% load for -20, 0.9, 14, 15 and 30°C ambient temperature and the results were compared with available heat balances. The article also discusses the theory of gas turbines, considering the sensitivity of the thermodynamic cycle. %U https://papers.itc.pw.edu.pl/index.php/JPT/article/view/553 %J Journal of Power Technologies %0 Journal Article %P 190-195%V 94 %N 3 %@ 2083-4195 %8 2014-09-29
