In one aspect, the system comprises a compressor system 44, a combustor 6, a turbine system 8, vapour generating means 29 having a dry-run capability, for transferring heat to a fluid to be vaporised when not being run dry, a bypass damper 16 and a condenser 18. In one operational position of the damper 16 (during start up) working fluid can bypass the condenser (via line 28) while in another position of the damper 16 the working fluid passes through the condenser. Vapour (eg. steam) may be fed from the outlet 26 of the vapour generating means to the combustor 6, compression system 44 or turbine system 8. An intercooler 40, water treatment area 20, and storage tank 24 may be provided. In another aspect, heating means 50 may be provided for transferring heat from the intercooler 40 to the working fluid downstream of the condenser to suppress visible exhaust plume. The fluid for transferring heat form the intercooler to the heating means may be water, or air, in which case the heating means is a mixer for mixing the air with the working fluid. |
