Abstract (en)

A method for determining the location of burners (6, 7) in an annular combustion chamber (1) of a gas turbine envisages: detecting flow rates (Q Pi , Q PXi ) of a plurality of burners (6, 7); calculating an average flow rate (Q PM , Q PXM ) of the detected flow rates (Q Pi , Q PXi ); calculating a deviation (”Q Pi , ”Q PXi ) of each detected flow rate (Q Pi , Q PXi ) from the average of the flow rates (Q PM , Q PXM ); and associating at least one of a plurality of seats (2) of the annular combustion chamber (1), that arranged along a circular path, to at least one burner (6, 7) on the basis of the calculated deviations (”Q Pi , ”Q PXi ).
