Abstract
The present application provides a gas turbine engine system for combusting a flow of fuel. The gas turbine engine system may include a combustor and a fuel system for providing the flow of fuel to the combustor. The fuel system may include a fuel heat exchanger so as to provide the flow of fuel to the combustor at a substantially constant temperature.
