Maximum combustion temperature in gas turbines is of the order of 1100 to 1200°C whereas same is around 2000°C in I.C. engine ? Why ?

High temperature in I.C. engine can be tolerated because it lasts for a fraction of second but gas turbines have to face it continuously which metals can't withstand.
