A gas turbine cooling system includes: a cooling air line that guides compressed air; a cooler that cools the compressed air; a flow rate adjuster that adjusts the flow rate of the cooling air; and a control device. The control device includes: a load change determination unit that determines whether a load indicated by a load command of the gas turbine has changed; a first command generation section that generates a first command indicating such an operation amount of the flow rate adjuster as allows the flow rate of the cooling air to meet a target flow rate; and a second command generation section that, when it is determined that the load indicated by the load command has changed, generates a second command indicating such an operation amount of the flow rate adjuster as allows a change-adapted flow rate higher than the target flow rate to be met.

A temperature control device includes a temperature difference calculation unit that calculates a temperature difference between an inlet and an outlet of a boost compressor on the basis of a pressure ratio of the inlet and the outlet of the boost compressor and an IGV opening degree of the boost compressor, the boost compressor outputting cooling air obtained by cooling compressed air from a compressor to a cooling target; a temperature information calculation unit that calculates temperature information for feedback control for at least one of the inlet and the outlet of the boost compressor on the basis of the temperature difference between the inlet and the outlet of the boost compressor; and a control unit that performs feedback control by using the temperature information for feedback control such that at least one of an inlet temperature and an outlet temperature of the boost compressor approaches a setting value.
