Systems and methods for operating a turbocharged gas turbine engine

Abstract

A power generation system includes a combustion system, a turbocharger, and a heat recovery system. The combustion system is configured to combust a fuel with a flow of air. The combustion system is further configured to generate an exhaust stream. The turbocharger is configured to compress a flow of compressed air and to channel the flow of compressed air to the combustion system. The combustion system is configured to combust the fuel with the flow of compressed air and an additional flow of air. The heat recovery system is configured to recover heat from the exhaust stream and to drive the turbocharger. The heat recovery system uses a supercritical working fluid to absorb heat from the exhaust stream and to drive the turbocharger.
