Popis: Gas turbines are pivotal in electricity generation and industry, prized for their efficiency and flexibility in meeting diverse power needs. Optimizing their thermal efficiency is essential for improving energy output and sustainability. Soft computing methods such as neural networks, genetic algorithms, and fuzzy logic offer potent tools for this optimization due to their ability to handle the turbines' nonlinear and dynamic characteristics. These techniques facilitate a deeper understanding of the intricate interplay among various parameters affecting thermal performance, thereby enabling the development of intelligent and adaptive turbine systems. By leveraging soft computing, researchers can enhance gas turbine designs to align with modern energy and environmental objectives. This review emphasizes the application of soft computing approaches in analysing and improving gas turbine thermal performance. Such advancements are instrumental in achieving higher energy efficiency, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and promoting a sustainable energy landscape. Ultimately, integrating soft computing into gas turbine operations promises to advance both technical capabilities and environmental stewardship in the detection of a more resilient and efficient energy infrastructure.
