[EN] In the past, common energy infrastructures such as electricity and natural gas systems were mostly planned and operated independently. Motivated by different reasons, a number of recent publications suggests an integrated view of energy systems including multiple energy carriers, instead of focusing on a single energy carrier. One incentive for that is given by the increasing utilization of gas-fired distributed generation, especially co- and trigeneration. The conversion of energy between different carriers establishes a coupling of the corresponding power flows resulting in system interactions. The investigation of such phenomena requires the development of tools for an integrated analysis of multiple energy carrier systems, which has become a recent field of research. So far the idea of a system with several inputs and several outputs of energy, with internal conversion between the energies has been discussed in several thesis and studies from the people of the power system department of ETH. (the name of this system is the hub). The thesis presented here is a continuation in the development of the hub idea. The objective of this study has been focused on the behavior of one of the main elements of hub, the gas turbine.
