AB - This paper focuses on an analysis of the potential increase of efficiency in  ship's primal energy system using a turbocharger with multistage compression  with intercooling, and diverting a greater flow of exhaust gases to power  turbine of waste heat recovery system (WHR). Analysis of potential  efficiency increase has been made for various stages of compression for a  100 % main engine load, and an analysis of five stage compression with  intercooling for a main engine load between 50% and 100%.
