A turbine includes a compressor (10) to intake a fluid and to compress the fluid, a combustion chamber (20) to heat the fluid from the compressor, a turbine section (30) to rotate a shaft with the heated fluid from the combustion chamber, and a bypass circuit (50) to generate a bypass flow by removing a portion of the fluid from the compressor (10), to heat (54) the bypass flow, and to insert the bypass flow to the turbine section (30).
