Summary As an efficient method for the waste heat recovery of gas turbine, supercritical carbon dioxide (S‐CO2) power cycle has gained much attention, due to the high efficiency and compact structure. Thus, in this work, a novel S‐CO2 power cycle is developed for the waste heat recovery via the modi...
