Advancement in power generation has tended to enhance the ability in producing a more efficient power especially in mass power generation. In producing an efficient power generation, fuel consumption is one of the major criteria that need to be enhanced. Recent advance in fuel flow control have the potential for a significant impact on the design and performance of modern gas turbine engine. Fuel flow control has the potential to enhance mixing of fluids, modify wake behavior and reduce drag. The need ofdesigning a efficient gas turbine fuel and air flow control has drive the author to make a first step in designing and improving the gas turbine fuel and air control system. As been mentioned before this requirement in heavy power generation are much important in agreater living for main kind. From this study and design author will go in-depth in real application ofcontrol system design. The definition of fuel and air control system that author adopt here is the used of the small modification (especially in steps response) to change the decision making or fuel and air consumption for the existing gas turbine available. The design will be base onDIDATEC TGT 1,5KW gas turbine (UTP). The design will be done byreal time data and linear time invariant system, also theoretical formulation that will be studied by author for the improvement project. The improvement design that been done by the author will be the implementation ofFuzzy Logic system , where this implementation have shown atremendous improvement and benefit especially in real time application with ambiguous decision making system. Author also will analyze and design others conventional control system such as PID controller and also Leadlag compensator design. The design of system will be done with the help of MATLAB andSIMULINK software for comparison and system implementation.
