Zusammenfassung:Systems and devices configured for active thermal control of turbine components are disclosed. In one embodiment, a thermal control system for a turbine includes: a thermal source shaped to connect to a turbine; a set of sensors disposed about the turbine and configured to obtain operational data from the turbine; and a computing device communicatively connected to the thermal source and the set of sensors, the computing device configured to regulate a thermal input of the thermal source to the turbine based on the operational data obtained by the set of sensors.
