Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide systems and methods for generating a predictable load upon a completion of a start sequence of a gas turbine.SOLUTION: A system may include a controller to control the gas turbine, and a processor communicatively coupled to the controller. The processor may be configured to receive a start duration and a desired final load, and to calculate a target load rate to substantially reach the desired final load within the start duration on the basis of the start duration and the desired final load. Measurements of a present load rate may be received from a measuring device and used to periodically recalculate the target load rate. The present load rate may be periodically adjusted by the controller on the basis of the recalculation.
