Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A turbomachine system (2) includes a compressor (6) having a compressor intake (8) and a compressor extraction outlet (20), and an inlet system (40) fluidly connected to the compressor intake (8) and the compressor extraction outlet (20). The inlet system (40) includes a plenum (49) having a first end portion (54) that extends to a second end portion (55) through an intermediate portion (56). The inlet system (40) also includes a heating system (66) having a plurality of conduits (80, 90) extending horizontally through the intermediate portion (56) of the plenum (49) and arranged in a vertical relationship. Heated air from the compressor extraction outlet (20) passes through the plurality of conduits (80, 90) and raises a temperature of ambient air passing through the plenum (49) and into the compressor intake (8).
