Zusammenfassung:Gas turbine engines are described. The gas turbine engines include a compressor section, a combustor section, a turbine section, a nozzle section, wherein the compressor section, the combustor section, the turbine section, and the nozzle section define a core flow path that expels through the nozzle section, and a waste heat recovery system. The waste heat recovery system includes a heat recovery heat exchanger arranged at the nozzle section, wherein the heat recovery heat exchanger is arranged within the nozzle section such that the heat recovery heat exchanger occupies less than an entire area of an exhaust area of the nozzle section and a heat rejection heat exchanger arranged to reduce a temperature of a working fluid of the waste heat recovery system.
