Claim One:
1. A method for generating control schedules associated with a gas turbine, the method comprising: receiving, via at least one processor, at least one gas turbine operation limit; receiving, via the at least one processor, at least one gas turbine operation condition at a specific test point; determining, via the at least one processor, gas turbine unit specific characteristics based at least in part on the at least one gas turbine operation condition, wherein the gas turbine unit specific characteristics comprise a compressor efficiency data match multiplier, a compressor flow data match multiplier, a combustor efficiency data match multiplier, a turbine efficiency data match multiplier, and a turbine flow coefficient data match multiplier; based at least in part on the gas turbine unit specific characteristics and the at least one gas turbine operation limit, determining, via the at least one processor, one or more control parameters corresponding to one or more temperatures; based at least in part on the one or more control parameters, generating, via the at least one processor, at least one control schedule or an update to an existing control schedule that predefines limits for a control system, based at least in part on the generated control schedule, creating a set of tuned control schedules with multiple nonlinear limits that work across an ambient range which has multiple control loops active across the ambient range with each control loop being active at a different ambient condition; and using the set of tuned control schedules in the control system to operate the gas turbine.
