Summary: | Control of low pressure recoup air in a gas turbine engine disposed in a gas turbine enclosure with low pressure recoup air piping coupled to a gas turbine combustion exhaust and gas turbine engine enclosure is disclosed. A first valve of the piping controls a flow of the recoup air to the gas turbine combustion exhaust. A second valve of the piping diverts the recoup air to the enclosure for eventual flow to the air intake. A controller controls the flow of the recoup air from the piping to the exhaust and/or the enclosure as a function of ambient and air intake temperature measurements, and a predetermined temperature requirement having an ambient temperature constraint and an air intake temperature differential constraint. |
