Abstract:
A method of recovering heat energy from a cooling medium used to cool hot gas path components in a turbine engine includes cooling one or more hot gas path components with the cooling medium; supplying spent cooling medium used to cool the one or more hot gas path components to a heat exchanger; supplying air (e.g., compressor discharge air) to the heat exchanger so as to be in heat exchange relationship with the spent cooling medium and thereby add heat to the compressor discharge air; and supplying the air heated in the heat exchanger to at least one combustor.
