SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING AN INLET AIR TEMPERATURE OF AN INTERCOOLELD GAS TURBINE ENGINE

An intercooled gas turbine engine (100) may include a low pressure compressor (132) configured to produce a compressed flow of air (134), an intercooler (138), a first air line (140) positioned between the low pressure compressor (132) and the intercooler (138) and configured to direct a first porti...

Zusammenfassung:	An intercooled gas turbine engine (100) may include a low pressure compressor (132) configured to produce a compressed flow of air (134), an intercooler (138), a first air line (140) positioned between the low pressure compressor (132) and the intercooler (138) and configured to direct a first portion of the compressed flow of air (134) to the intercooler (138), a high pressure compressor (104), a second air line positioned between the intercooler (138) and the high pressure compressor (104) and configured to direct the first portion of the compressed flow of air (134) toward the high pressure compressor (104), and a bypass air line (204,206) positioned between the low pressure compressor (132) and the high pressure compressor (104) and configured to direct a second portion of the compressed flow of air (134) to the second air line (112). A related method of controlling a temperature of an incoming flow of air (108) supplied to a core engine (130) of an intercooled gas turbine engine (100) also is provided.
