An ultrasonic fog generator can be used to advantage in injecting a fog into the input air of a combustion chamber, in order to improve efficiency and reduce the noxious emissions in the exhaust. In accordance with one form of the disclosure, a heat exchange is utilized to advantage in a turbine system in reheating compressed air that has been cooled as the air was fogged, the reheated air being input to the combustion chamber. In another form of the disclosure an adjustable heat exchange is used to controllably heat input air before the fogging thereof, the level of heat exchange depending on properties of the input air and the level of fogging to be implemented.
