"USE OF NET DROP, PROCESS TO INCREASE THE NET PRODUCTION OF AN INDUSTRIAL GAS TURBINE, APPARATUS TO INCREASELY INCREASE THE NET PRODUCTION OF A GAS TURBINE, APPLIANCE FOR ENERGY AND POWER SUPPLY LINES. COMPRESSOR SECTION OF AN INDUSTRIAL GAS TURBINE ". Apparatus and process for increasing energy to effectively add a mass flow of water to the working fluid obtained by the compressor of an industrial gas turbine, and especially to add a mass flow of water to a fully humidified working fluid to reduce the compression work performed by the compressor to achieve an increase in the energy produced by the turbine, said apparatus and process preferably including the use of a jet frame group having at least one jet frame water tube and at least one water nozzle of jet frame whose assembly is ideally positioned at a distance away from the compressor inlet. The mass flow of water is preferably added in increments that correspond to the jet-framed water tubes and associated nozzles. Monitoring the temperature profile of the rotor blades cooled by fluid in the turbine section with an optical pyrometer to detect the clogging of cooling paths in these rotor blades due to impurities in the added water, monitoring of the working fluid temperature in the vicinity of the inlet of the gas turbine compressor to protect against the possibility of ice formation, a device for measuring deformation, and the concomitant addition of heat and humidity, preferably steam, to the working fluid as a means to extend the usefulness of the process and lower ambient air temperature operation are described.
