Abstract
A system includes a temperature control system configured to couple to an air intake section of a gas turbine system. The temperature control system includes a variable heating system having one or more heaters configured to heat an airflow in the air intake section when the airflow is cooled by an evaporative cooling system. The temperature control system is configured to control the variable heating system to vary an amount of heat supplied by the one or more heaters based on at least one temperature measurement relative to a temperature threshold.
