A method of operating a gas turbine with active hydraulic gap setting

A method of operating a gas turbine with active hydraulic gap setting The invention relates to a method henceforth for operating a stationary gas turbine (1) provided at part load with at least one compressor (11), at least an expansion turbine (14) and one with at least one burner (13) combustion chamber (12) which gas turbine (1) means (20) for a hydraulic gap adjustment, the method comprising the steps of: - operating the gas turbine (1) in partial load; - operating said means (20) for a hydraulic gap adjustment; - during operation of the means (20) for the hydraulic gap adjustment increasing the fuel supply to the burner (13) while raising the temperature of the combustion gases (15) are guided to the expansion turbine (14).
