Summary: | A system (10) includes an anti-icing heat recovery system (50), which includes a first heat exchanger (54), a second heat exchanger (58), and a variable speed fan (56). The first heat exchanger (54) is configured to receive a working fluid from an exhaust section (24) of a gas turbine engine (12) and to transfer heat from the working fluid to a cooled intermediate heat transfer medium to generate a heated intermediate heat transfer medium. The second heat exchanger (58) is configured to receive the heated intermediate heat transfer medium from the first heat exchanger (54) and to transfer heat from the heated intermediate heat transfer medium to air entering the gas turbine engine (12). The variable speed fan (56) is configured to urge the working fluid from the exhaust section (24) of the gas turbine engine (12) through the first heat exchanger (54). |
