Abstract
A fluid injection system for a gas turbine engine may comprise a fluid injector configured to inject a fluid into an exhaust flow exiting a turbine section of the gas turbine engine. The fluid injector may be coupled to a turbine exit guide vane located at a forward end of an exhaust system of the gas turbine engine. The fluid may decrease a temperature of the exhaust flow exiting the turbine section and/or increase a thrust of the gas turbine engine.
