Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for enabling turn down of a turbine engine, comprising: extracting compressor discharge air from a working fluid path before it enters a combustion zone of the turbine engine; and reintroducing the extracted air to the working fluid path downstream of a combustor exit. Further disclosed herein is an apparatus related to a gas turbine, comprising: a compressor section, one or more combustors downstream from the compressor section, a turbine section downstream from the compressor section; and at least one conduit for extracting compressor discharge air from a working fluid path prior to a combustion zone and reintroducing the extracted air to the working fluid path downstream of a combustor exit in response to the turbine being in a turned down condition.
