Description of simplified internal flow systems.
| System no. | Description | Relevance |
| 1 | Energy source: modeled as a system delivering super-heated steam to represent combustion and compression process | Represents inlet, compressor, and combustor systems | 2 | Energy transfer: modeled as a duct connecting System 1 to System 3, with heat transfer possible | Represents combustor and diffuser (or similar device) connecting combustor to turbine | 3 | Energy conversion: modeled as a system converting energy from super-heated steam to work | Represents turbine power generation |
