An operating method for a gas turbine by partial-load operation, includes setting of a power setpoint value for a predefined temperature value; determining the two operating curves as a function of temperature according to the power of the gas turbine, wherein the power setpoint value is located between said operating curves; determining the difference in power of said two operating curves at the substantially constant predetermined temperature value; determining a power deviation from the predetermined power setpoint value of one of the two operating curves at the substantially constant predetermined temperature value; calculating an interpolated operating curve deviation on the basis of the difference in power and the power deviation, wherein the temperature is a turbine outlet temperature or a computationally determined turbine inlet temperature.

A method for monitoring operation of a power generating installation that has at least one generator that is driven by a rotating machine, in which values of an operating parameter of the generator and/or rotating machine are captured and stored, it is ascertained whether the value of the operating parameter at prescribed checking times lies outside an admissible range, wherein a possible fault is inferred if the value of the operating parameter lies outside the admissible range at two directly successive checking times, an additional check is performed to determine whether the value of the operating parameter is approaching the admissible range in a prescribed checking interval that lies between two directly successive checking times and particularly extends as far as the later of the two checking times, and it is inferred that there is a fault if the value of the operating parameter is not approaching the admissible range.
