Gas turbine power generation

From a terminological point of view, the official French name for gas turbines is "turbines à combustion", abbreviated TAC. The scientifically correct name is "combustion gas turbine", since it is the gases produced by combustion that supply the turbine with energy. It is therefore understandable that a gas turbine can be powered by liquid fuels. In this article, we use the commonly-used term "gas turbine" and the abbreviation "TAC" to refer to this technology.
