This study delves into the realm of optimizing energy efficiency through the transient simulation of waste heat recovery from gas turbine exhaust. Termed "Heat Harvest," the research employs advanced simulation techniques to model and analyze the dynamic behavior of waste heat recovery systems in the context of gas turbine operations. By examining transient conditions, the study aims to uncover opportunities for enhancing energy recovery, improving overall system performance, and contributing to sustainable energy practices. The findings provide valuable insights for engineers, researchers, and industries seeking to harness the untapped potential of waste heat in gas turbine applications.
