Abstract
A power generating system can recover exhaust heat from a working fluid of a fluid coupling and utilize the recovered exhaust heat to generate power. In the power generating system, water is supplied to a boiler by a feed pump to generate steam, a steam turbine is driven by using the generated steam to generate power, the steam discharged from the steam turbine is condensed in a condenser, and then the condensed water is resupplied to the boiler by the feed pump. The power generating system includes a fluid coupling provided between the feed pump and a motor to transmit a torque from the motor to the feed pump by a working fluid, and the condensed water supplied from the condenser is heated by the working fluid discharged from the fluid coupling.
