SUPERCRITICAL CO2 CYCLE AND INTEGRATED AUXILIARY POWER FOR GAS TURBINE ENGINES

摘要

Waste heat management systems are described. The waste heat management systems include a turbine engine having a compressor section, a combustor section, a turbine section, and a nozzle. The compressor section, the combustor section, the turbine section, and the nozzle define a core flow path that expels through the nozzle. The waste heat management systems also include an auxiliary power unit (APU) system and a waste heat recovery system operably connected to the APU system. The APU system is integrated into a working fluid flow path of the waste heat recovery system.
