Abstract
An intake arrangement for a compressor in a gas turbine power plant includes at least a passageway having an elongated portion, and a circular portion at an end of the elongated portion. The circular portion may be arranged in proximity to the compressor at around a compressor inlet. The passageway may be divided at least circumferentially and radially across the entire elongated portion and at least partially across the circular portion to configure a plurality of flue gas and air inlet segments for respectively conveying flue gas and air streams therethrough. The flue and air gas streams from each of the respective plurality of flue gas and air inlet segments, converge to be blended into a target mass stream for being conveyed into the compressor.
