Supercritical CO2 Brayton cycle (sCO2 BC) can become easily utilized in marine gas turbine waste heat recovery applications due to their high efficiency, compact size, and low-cost advantages. In this study, the performance of the three different split flow sCO2 BCs, including turbine split flow-1 (TSF-1), turbine split flow-2 (TSF-2), and turbine split-3 (TSF-3), for the recovery of marine gas turbine waste heat is compared. The Engineering Equation Solver (EES) application is used to compare the three different split flow sCO2 BCs' performances. Moreover, to investigate the influence of important thermodynamic parameters on cycle performance, a parametric analysis is carried out. The effect of variable exhaust gas temperature, turbine input pressure, and compressor inlet pressure on net power, the energy efficiency of the system, system's exergy efficiency, and exergy destruction are examined. The results suggest that the energy efficiencies of the TSF-1 sCO2 BC, the TSF-2 sCO2 BC, and the TSF-3 sCO2 BC are calculated by 28.71%, 34.5%, and 29.42%, respectively. The TSF-2 sCO2 BC has more advantages in efficiency among all the cycle layouts while the TSF-3 sCO2 BC layout has better performance in the net power. In addition, the TSF-3 sCO2 BC has the highest exergy destruction at 99.71 kW, followed by the TSF-1 sCO2 BC at 91.83 kW and the TSF-2 sCO2 BC at 41.75 kW. It has been determined that the cycle's net power increases with rising exhaust gas temperature and turbine input pressure and decreases with compressor input pressure. Exhaust gas temperature and turbine inlet pressure have a positive effect on the performance of all split flow sCO2 BCs.
