Describe a closed cycle gas turbine power plant and its characteristics with a neat sketch.

A closed-cycle gas turbine power plant is a type of power generation system where the working fluid (usually a gas such as helium, air, or carbon dioxide) is continuously recirculated within a closed loop. Unlike an open-cycle gas turbine, where fresh air is taken in and exhaust gases are released into the atmosphere, a closed-cycle system operates with the same working fluid, which is reheated and reused. This results in higher efficiency, better control of working fluid properties, and reduced environmental impact.  

### Working Principle of Closed-Cycle Gas Turbine  
The closed-cycle gas turbine operates on the Brayton cycle, which consists of four major thermodynamic processes:
