Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A system including an engine and a heat exchanger coupled to the engine is provided. The engine 2 includes an engine fluid and at least one of a compressor section 14 configured to compress a gas, a lubricant path configured to circulate a lubricant, or a coolant path configured to circulate a coolant. The engine fluid comprises at least one of the gas, the lubricant, or the coolant, and the engine fluid is a source of heat derived from one or more operations of the engine. The heat exchanger 3 is configured to receive the engine fluid from the engine and exchange heat between the engine fluid and a working fluid 8 to produce a heated working fluid and a cooled engine fluid, and the heat exchanger is configured to export the heated working fluid to a steam system 4.
