Abstract: The present application provides a gas turbine system. The gas turbine system may include a gas turbine engine producing a flow of exhaust gases, a heat recovery steam generator with a reheater and an evaporator in communication with the flow of exhaust gases, and a gas flow control system for diverting a first portion of the flow of exhaust gases away from the reheater and towards the evaporator.
