Abstract

A power generating system for a gas turbine engine includes a compressor bleed air duct in fluid communication with a compressor bleed air passage, a heat exchanger arranged within an exhaust section of the gas turbine engine, and a power turbine. A compressor bleed air is provided to the heat exchanger via the compressor bleed air duct. The heat exchanger receives a flow of combustion gases from a turbine section of the gas turbine engine, and utilizes the combustion gases to heat the compressor bleed air to generate heated bleed air. The heated bleed air flows from the heat exchanger to the power turbine, and drives rotation of the power turbine. The power turbine is connected with a generator such that rotation of the power turbine generates power by the generator.
