Abstract: A control method and mechanization is disclosed to bleed compressor air in order to control the gas turbine of a turbo heater. Compressed air may selectively bleed with a control value in order to increase or decrease the efficiency of the gas turbine unit. Additionally, the control system enables the bleed air system allows to re-circulate compressed air to mix with the combustion air and provide a pre-heat thereof. The control system further enables re-direction of the combustion feed stream into the exhaust gas stream to promote complete combustion of the unburned fuel and combustion by-products in a catalytic converter downstream of the gas turbine to provide a breathable exhaust gas from the turbo heater.
