Abstract
Turbojet powerplant with at least one compressor (1), at least one combustion chamber (2), a high-pressure turbine (3) and a low-pressure turbine (4), characterised in that a heat exchanger (5) is arranged between the compressor (1) and the combustion chamber (2), in that at least one hot-gas line (6) branches off from an area downstream of the high-pressure turbine (3) and is connected to the heat exchanger (5), and in that at least one cold-gas line (7) connects the heat exchanger (5) with an area upstream of the low-pressure turbine (4).
