Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of aviation engine technology, and in particular, to a method for evaluating thermodynamic cycle parameters of a turboshaft engine based on cost and mission requirements. Background Art

[0002] As a power-output engine, turboshaft engines are the primary propulsion systems for platforms such as helicopters and tiltrotor aircraft. In the civilian market, the economic efficiency of an aircraft platform has become a crucial factor in determining its market competitiveness. The manufacturing and periodic overhaul costs of turboshaft engines, as well as fuel costs, are the primary components of the direct operating costs of an aircraft platform, collectively accounting for over 60%. Therefore, reducing these related costs is one of the primary ways to improve the economic efficiency of an aircraft platform and has become a crucial consideration in turboshaft engine design.

[0003] Thermodynamic cycle parameters of a turboshaft engine include combustion chamber outlet temperature and compressor pressure ratio. While meeting the target flight platform power, increasing cycle parameters such as combustion chamber outlet temperature and pressure ratio can reduce engine weight and improve fuel consumption. However, this increases material and process costs, and may result in over- or under-design relative to the platform's mission requirements. Selecting appropriate thermodynamic cycle parameters based on the flight platform's mission requirements, combined with current industrial technology and cost conditions, can effectively control engine manufacturing and periodic overhaul costs, as well as fuel costs, and provide a sound foundation for the specific design of engine components. However, currently available thermodynamic cycle parameter design methods primarily focus on optimizing performance indicators, with limited consideration of cost and mission requirements. The impact of thermodynamic cycle parameters on engine cost is not evaluated. Furthermore, the selection of thermodynamic cycle parameters during the design process rarely considers the weight distribution and power spectrum under different flight platform conditions. Consequently, in order to fully balance engine weight and fuel consumption, over- or under-design may occur, failing to meet the flight platform's economic requirements. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present application provides a method for evaluating the thermodynamic cycle parameters of a turboshaft engine based on cost and mission requirements, which is used to solve the technical problem that the existing thermodynamic cycle parameter design has insufficient comprehensive consideration of cost and mission requirements and does not meet the economic requirements of the flight platform.

[0005] This application is implemented through the following scheme: A method for evaluating the thermodynamic cycle parameters of a turboshaft engine based on cost and mission requirements includes the following steps: S1.

[0006] Compared with the existing technology, this application has the following beneficial effects: This application proposes a method for evaluating the thermodynamic cycle parameters of a turboshaft engine based on cost and mission requirements. The method establishes the relationship between the thermodynamic cycle parameters and the costs of each component and the entire aircraft, taking into account the coupling effects of the cycle parameters with the parameters of each component and the air system. Furthermore, the method combines the balance between the mission and weight of the aircraft to obtain the distribution of the engine cost, engine, and fuel weight coefficients with respect to the cycle parameters.

This is to characterize the impact of different thermodynamic cycle parameters on the mission capability margin of the flight platform, and is used to evaluate the applicability of different thermodynamic cycle parameter combinations to the flight platform, making the engine cost more advantageous while keeping the minimum residual weight coefficient of the flight platform within an acceptable range, further improving the range of the flight platform.

[0011] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely used to explain the technical solutions of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.

[0012] In order to better understand the technical solution of the present application, a detailed description will be given below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0013] Existing turboshaft engine packages usually have components such as an air intake device, a compressor, a combustion chamber, a gas turbine, a power turbine and an exhaust device. The gas turbine and the compressor are connected to the same drive shaft, and the combustion chamber is arranged between the gas turbine and the compressor. Air is continuously sucked in by the compressor through the air intake device, and after compression, it enters the combustion chamber and burns with the injected fuel to become high-temperature combustion gas, and then enters the gas turbine to expand and perform work. At this time, the expansion work is transmitted to the compressor through the drive shaft to realize continuous operation of the engine, and the gas at the outlet of the gas turbine drives the power turbine to continue to expand and perform work to drive other equipment to work, such as helicopter rotors, generators, etc. The gas at the outlet of the power turbine enters the atmosphere through the exhaust device.

[0014] Parameters that affect engine performance include the total pressure loss coefficient of the given intake system, the converted compressor flow rate, compressor efficiency, total pressure loss in the combustion chamber, gas turbine inlet temperature, gas turbine efficiency, power turbine efficiency, total pressure loss in the transition section, exhaust loss, and the air system bleed ratio. In conventional overall performance design, facing a certain power target and taking into account the performance level of components, parameter analysis of the combustion chamber outlet temperature and compressor pressure ratio is carried out, and a "carpet map" is drawn. Based on the constraints of performance, structural strength, etc., the feasible region is determined to obtain appropriate thermodynamic cycle parameters. See Figure 1 Among them, fuel consumption rate reflects the fuel consumption level of the engine; unit power refers to the power corresponding to unit air flow, which can represent the weight and size of the engine.

[0015] To improve the rationality of turboshaft engine performance design, existing technologies have leveraged the coupled relationships between various components and the air system to more precisely select thermodynamic cycle parameters. However, these technologies focus on optimizing performance metrics and pay little attention to engine cost. The compressor, combustion chamber, gas turbine, power turbine, and intake and exhaust systems are the primary aerodynamic components of a turboshaft engine. Their specific design is closely related to parameters such as the temperature, pressure, and flow rate of the engine's mainstream gas, and their combined cost accounts for over 65% of the engine's total cost. While maintaining engine power and lifespan, the combustion chamber outlet temperature and pressure ratio can lead to variations in the structure, materials, and processes of these components, directly impacting engine manufacturing and scheduled overhaul costs. Given the technological development stage and overhaul cycle, scheduled overhaul costs can be considered directly related to manufacturing costs. Furthermore, due to the coupled relationships between various components and the air system parameters, excessive pursuit of low engine weight when selecting thermodynamic cycle parameters can lead to increased fuel consumption, negatively impacting the mission capability of the flight platform. Therefore, achieving a balance between engine weight and fuel consumption is an effective means of enhancing flight platform capabilities.

[0016] In addition to the thermodynamic cycle parameters, the diversity of component configurations will also affect the cost of the engine. However, with the advancement of technology, engines of the same power level have gradually converged in terms of overall layout, component configuration selection, etc. For example, considering the power expansion potential of the engine, turboshaft engines in the power range of 1000kW to 2000kW mostly use a "multi-stage axial flow + centrifugal impeller" combined compressor configuration and a two-stage gas turbine configuration (see Figure 2 ) includes: an air intake device 1, a multi-stage axial flow 2, a centrifugal impeller 3, a combustion chamber 4, a gas turbine 5, a power turbine 6, and an exhaust device 7, which provides favorable conditions for cost evaluation.

[0017] It should be noted that the execution entity of this embodiment can be a computing service device with data processing, network communication, and program execution capabilities, such as a tablet computer, personal computer, or mobile phone, or a turboshaft engine thermal cycle parameter evaluation device based on cost and mission requirements that can achieve the above functions. The following describes this embodiment and the following embodiments using a turboshaft engine thermal cycle parameter evaluation device based on cost and mission requirements as the execution entity.

[0018] like Figure 1 As shown, the preferred embodiment of the present application provides a method for evaluating the thermodynamic cycle parameters of a turboshaft engine based on cost and mission requirements, comprising the steps of: S1. Establish an engine benchmark scheme and its design point performance model, and determine the cost ratio of each component; S2. Determine the compressor structure schemes suitable for different pressure ratios, establish cost calculation formulas for the compressor rotor blade disk and compressor stator blade assembly, and then establish a calculation formula for the total compressor cost coefficient based on the cost ratio relationship of the engine baseline scheme; S3. Based on the differences in process cost, material cost, and yield rate of gas turbine structural schemes in different gas temperature ranges, a calculation formula for the total cost coefficient of turbines in different gas temperature ranges is established; S4. Establish a calculation formula for the total cost coefficient of the combustion chamber based on the materials, cooling structure and coating scheme used for the combustion chamber flame tube, the outer diameter and wall thickness of the combustion chamber casing, the number of nozzles and the inlet conversion flow rate; S5. Establish a calculation formula for the total cost coefficient of the intake and exhaust devices based on the material cost ratio of the intake and exhaust devices of the engine baseline solution and the converted compressor inlet flow rate; S6. Establish a calculation formula for the engine manufacturing and periodic overhaul cost coefficient based on the total compressor cost coefficient, the engine baseline compressor cost ratio, the gas turbine total cost coefficient, the engine baseline gas turbine cost ratio, the turbine total cost coefficient, the combustion chamber total cost coefficient, and the intake and exhaust device total cost coefficients; S7. Establish a formula for calculating the engine cost coefficient based on the engine manufacturing and periodic overhaul cost coefficients and fuel consumption rate, combined with the relationship between fuel cost and engine cost; S8. Based on the weight distribution and power spectrum of the flight platform under different mission conditions, calculate the residual weight, engine fuel weight, and minimum residual weight coefficient under different mission conditions, and complete the suitability assessment of the thermodynamic cycle parameters for the flight platform mission; S9. Substitute the coefficients or formulas obtained in steps S2 to S8 into the design point performance model, give the range and step size of the combustion chamber outlet temperature and pressure ratio, and perform iterative calculations to obtain the distribution of the engine use cost coefficient and the flight platform minimum residual weight coefficient on the thermodynamic cycle parameter analysis diagram.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, this embodiment has the following beneficial effects: This embodiment proposes a method for evaluating the thermodynamic cycle parameters of a turboshaft engine based on cost and mission requirements. By comprehensively considering the coupling effects of the cycle parameters with the various components and air system parameters, the relationship between the thermodynamic cycle parameters and the costs of the various components and the entire aircraft is established. Furthermore, by balancing the mission and weight of the aircraft, the distribution of engine cost, engine and fuel weight coefficients with respect to the cycle parameters is obtained. This provides a feasible method for evaluating and optimizing the thermodynamic cycle parameters, specifically including: 1) This example utilizes the component technology and cost levels of existing engine products to determine the relationship between parameters such as combustion chamber outlet temperature, pressure ratio, and flow rate and the design of major aerodynamic components. A model is then established to determine the relationship between thermodynamic cycle parameters and component costs. This analysis analyzes the combined impact of changes in thermodynamic cycle parameters on manufacturing and scheduled overhaul costs, as well as fuel costs, providing a basis for further optimization of thermodynamic cycle parameters. 2) This embodiment establishes a minimum residual weight coefficient for the flight platform based on the weight distribution and power spectrum of the aircraft under different conditions, combined with the impact of thermodynamic cycle parameters on engine weight and fuel consumption rate. This coefficient characterizes the impact of different thermodynamic cycle parameters on the flight platform's mission capability margin. This is used to evaluate the applicability of different thermodynamic cycle parameter combinations to the flight platform, making the engine cost more competitive while keeping the minimum residual weight coefficient of the flight platform within an acceptable range, further improving the flight platform's range.

[0020] Preferably, step S1 specifically includes the steps of: S11. Use existing methods to perform optimization analysis of the thermodynamic cycle parameters of the engine design point, so that the power and fuel consumption rate of the engine design point meet the index requirements, and establish an engine benchmark scheme and its design point performance model; S12. Based on the existing engine baseline plan and cost situation, combined with the supplier inquiry results, determine the proportion of manufacturing costs of each component. See Table 1 for details.

[0021] Table 1 Proportion of manufacturing cost of each component ; The main aerodynamic components of a compressor include the compressor rotor blade disk and the compressor stator blade assembly, which together account for more than 65% of the compressor cost. Given a given configuration and technology level, the compressor stage pressure ratio is limited.

[0022] In order to adapt to the improvement of the compressor pressure ratio, the number of axial flow stages of the combined compressor must be increased, which will also increase the temperature of the axial flow final stage or centrifugal stage, and then the centrifugal stage will use high-temperature alloys, which will lead to increased costs. In addition to the pressure ratio, the engine flow rate and efficiency are also factors that affect the cost. The increase in flow rate will increase the outer diameter of the compressor, and the decrease in efficiency will cause the temperature of the axial flow final stage or centrifugal stage to increase accordingly. In addition, for the remaining parts of the compressor, including the outer casing of the axial flow part, the outer casing of the centrifugal part, etc., their corresponding manufacturing costs are positively correlated with the compressor flow path parts. Therefore, by obtaining the cost changes of the compressor rotor blade disk and the compressor stator blade assembly, the change in the total cost of the compressor can be basically determined. Therefore, preferably, step S2 specifically includes the steps of: S21. By statistically analyzing the compressor data of existing engines, it is possible to obtain compressor configurations applicable to different pressure ratio ranges and determine compressor structural schemes applicable to different pressure ratios. Table 2 shows combined compressor schemes applicable to different pressure ratio ranges. In the table, pressure ratio range 1 < pressure ratio range 2 < pressure ratio range 3 < pressure ratio range 4. Due to similar processes, when the size and material remain unchanged, the total cost and quantity of blade disks are proportional. In order to improve the reliability and economy of the product, in addition to the first-stage blade disk and centrifugal impeller, the intermediate axial flow stage uses two-stage integral blade disks as much as possible to reduce the number of blade disks. Based on the statistical results of existing engines, the relationship between the number of compressor stages, the number of blade disks, the number of blade disks made of different materials, the number of stator stages and the pressure ratio corresponding to different pressure ratio ranges can be obtained; Table 2 Combined compressor structure schemes applicable to different pressure ratio ranges ; S22. The compressor inlet outer diameter determines the compressor inlet frontal area and is a key factor affecting the compressor inlet converted flow rate. Under the same technical level, the relationship between the compressor inlet outer diameter and the compressor inlet converted flow rate is established based on the existing engine data (see Figure 4 ): D com =a1×Wac2 2 +b1×Wac2+c1; Among them, D com is the compressor inlet outer diameter; Wac2 is the compressor inlet converted flow rate; a1, b1, c1 are coefficients, determined according to the curve fitting results; S23. For the compressor rotor blade disk, a calculation formula for the compressor blade disk cost coefficient is established based on the changes in the compressor outer diameter, the number of blade disks, and the blade disk material. This will yield the change in the compressor blade disk of the new solution relative to the engine baseline solution: ; Among them: comp,disc is the cost coefficient of the compressor rotor blade disk, which is the cost ratio of the new compressor blade disk to the engine benchmark solution; α comp,dis,mat,0 The material cost ratio of the compressor rotor blade disk of the engine baseline solution is generally 20% to 35%; D com is the compressor inlet outer diameter; D com,0 is the compressor inlet outer diameter of the engine base scheme; N comp,disc is the number of compressor rotor blades; N comp,disc,0 is the number of compressor rotor blades in the engine baseline solution; N comp,dis,GH is the number of compressor high-temperature alloy rotor blade disks; N comp,dis,GH,0 C is the number of high-temperature alloy rotor blades in the engine baseline scheme compressor; mat,GH / C mat,Ti The cost ratio of high-temperature alloys to titanium alloys takes into account the difference in material density and unit price; S24. For the compressor stator blade assembly, the cost of the intermediate stage stators is relatively stable, while the increase in the number of stages will increase the number of intermediate stage stators accordingly. Therefore, based on the influence of the number of stages and the change in the outer diameter of the compressor stator blade assembly, the calculation formula for the compressor stator blade assembly cost coefficient is established: ζ comp,stator =(1-α comp,stator,mat,0 +α com,stator,mat,0 ×D com 2 / D com,0 2 )× (1+ (N comp -N comp,0 )×C comp,sator,mid,0 / C comp,sator, 0 ); Among them: comp,stator is the cost coefficient of the compressor stator blade assembly, that is, the cost ratio of the new solution to the engine benchmark solution; α comp,stator,mat,0 D is the material cost ratio of the compressor stator blade assembly of the engine baseline solution; com is the compressor inlet outer diameter; D com,0 is the compressor inlet outer diameter of the engine base scheme; N comp is the number of compressor stages; N comp,0 is the number of compressor stages of the engine benchmark scheme; C comp,sator,mid,0 / C comp,sator, 0 The ratio of the cost of a single intermediate stage stator to the total cost of the stator blade assembly is 15% to 25%; S25. Using the cost coefficients of the compressor rotor blade disk and compressor stator blade assembly, combined with the cost ratio of the engine baseline solution, establish a calculation formula for the total compressor cost coefficient: ζ comp = C comp,disc,0 / (C comp,sator, 0 + C comp,disc, 0 )×ζ comp,disc + C comp,sator,0 / (C comp,sator, 0 + C comp,disc, 0 )×ζ comp,stato ; Among them: comp is the total cost coefficient of the compressor; C comp,disc,0 is the cost of the compressor rotor blade disk of the engine baseline solution; C comp,sator, 0 is the cost of the compressor stator blade assembly of the engine baseline solution; comp,discis the cost coefficient of the compressor rotor blade disk ζ comp,stato is the cost coefficient of the compressor stator blade assembly.

[0023] The main aerodynamic components of the turbine mainly include turbine guide vanes, turbine blades and turbine discs, which account for more than 75% of the turbine cost. Under a certain configuration and technical level, to increase the gas temperature, it is necessary to use more advanced high-temperature alloy materials and a more complex cooling structure, or increase the amount of bleed air for cooling. At the same time, changes in the combustion chamber outlet temperature, compressor pressure ratio, component efficiency and air system will affect the gas turbine rotor inlet converted flow rate. The gas turbine rotor converted flow rate directly reflects the gas turbine's flow capacity and flow area requirements, and thus determines the basic size of the turbine. However, for small and medium-sized turboshaft engines, the reduction in turbine size will increase the process difficulty of the cooling structure, and there is a certain cost offset. Therefore, when analyzing the turbine cost, the influence of the gas temperature can be mainly considered. Therefore, preferably, step S3 specifically includes the steps of: S31. Using the existing engine technology, establish the relationship between the ratio of the bleed air flow rate of each part of the turbine to the engine inlet flow rate and the combustion chamber outlet temperature, including the combustion-pilot air ratio, the combustion-driven bleed air ratio, and the power turbine bleed air ratio. Figure 5 The design results of the combustion-pilot air ratio, the combustion-dynamic bleed air ratio, and the power turbine bleed air ratio are respectively given as a function of the combustion chamber outlet temperature; the combustion-pilot air ratio refers to the bleed air ratio at the first-stage guide vane of the gas turbine, the combustion-dynamic bleed air ratio refers to the bleed air ratio at the gas turbine rotor blades (including the second-stage guide vane of the gas turbine), and the power turbine bleed air ratio refers to the bleed air ratio at the power turbine; specifically, the calculation formula for the combustion-pilot air ratio is: CO NGV = a2×T4 3 +b2×T4 2 +c2×T4+d2; Among them, CO NGV is the fuel-pilot gas ratio; T4 is the combustion chamber outlet temperature; a2, b2, c2, d2 are coefficients, determined according to the curve fitting results; The calculation formula for the combustion and bleed air ratio is: CO HPTR = a3×T4 3 +b3×T4 2 +c3×T4+d3; Among them, CO HPTR is the combustion air ratio; T4 is the combustion chamber outlet temperature; a3, b3, c3, d3 are coefficients, determined according to the curve fitting results; The calculation formula for the power turbine bleed air ratio is: CO LPTR= a4×T4 3 +b4×T4 2 +c4×T4+d4; Among them, CO LPTR is the ratio of power turbine bleed air; T4 is the combustion chamber outlet temperature; a4, b4, c4, d4 are coefficients, determined according to the curve fitting results; S32. With reference to existing engines, establish the relationship between the gas temperature range and the material level and cooling structure of the main aerodynamic components of the turbine, and determine the structural scheme applicable to different gas temperatures at the inlet of the gas turbine and the power turbine. The inlet gas temperature of the gas turbine refers to the combustion chamber outlet temperature, and the inlet gas temperature of the power turbine refers to the gas turbine outlet temperature. For gas turbines, inlet gas temperature refers to the combustion chamber outlet temperature; for power turbines, it refers to the turbine outlet temperature. Turbine inlet gas temperature has a significant impact on the material quality and cooling structure of the turbine's key aerodynamic components. While maintaining the same strength and lifespan requirements, increasing turbine inlet gas temperature necessitates the selection of materials with enhanced high-temperature and corrosion resistance. For example, the high-temperature alloys used in turbine blades can be upgraded from directionally solidified to first-, second-, or third-generation single crystals. Furthermore, adjustments to the blade cooling structure may be necessary, such as upgrading solid blades to hollow blades and further adopting hollow blades with more complex internal cooling channels. For example, a simple straight cooling channel convection heat exchange structure could be upgraded to a multi-channel structure with turbulent flow. Furthermore, cooling structures such as impingement, film cooling, and slit cooling could be added, or even more complex laminate cooling could be employed. Thermal barrier coatings could also be considered. Whether using materials with enhanced high-temperature and corrosion resistance or using blade skins with more complex cooling structures, engine cost will increase. Using existing engines, a relationship between the gas temperature range and the material quality and cooling structure of the turbine's key aerodynamic components is established (see Table 3). Table 3 lists gas turbine structural options for different gas temperature ranges. The relationship between power turbine structural options and gas temperature can also be established based on this. In Table 3, Temperature Range 1 < Temperature Range 2 < Temperature Range 3 < Temperature Range 4 < Temperature Range 5. Temperature Range 1 is used as the baseline. Within this baseline, the material level and cooling structure complexity of various components are denoted by A, while B, C, and D represent higher levels of material level and cooling structure complexity.

[0024] Table 3 Gas turbine structure schemes in different gas temperature ranges ; S33. Based on the differences in process cost, material cost, and yield rate among different turbine solutions, a calculation formula for the total cost coefficient of the turbine in different gas temperature ranges is established: ζ HPT= ∑(α HPT,k,0 × ((1-α HPT, mat,k,0 ) × C HPT,process,k / C HPT,process,0,k +α HPT, mat,k,0 × C HPT,mat, k / C HPT,mat, 0,k )×Q HPT,k / Q HPT,k,0 ); Among them: HPT is the total cost coefficient of the gas turbine, that is, the cost ratio of the new solution to the engine baseline solution; α HPT,k,0 is the cost ratio of each part of the gas turbine of the engine baseline solution; α HPT, mat,k,0 C is the material cost ratio of the corresponding part of the gas turbine of the engine baseline solution; HPT,process,k / C HPT,process,0,k is the ratio of the gas turbine process cost to the engine benchmark solution, which can be determined based on statistical data; C HPT,mat, k / C HPT,mat, 0,k is the ratio of gas turbine material cost to engine base case, which can be determined based on statistical data; Q HPT,k / Q HPT,k,0 The gas turbine yield rate is the ratio of the engine benchmark solution, which can be determined based on statistical data; Power turbines generally use uncooled blades, which significantly impacts material costs. Calculations reveal the total cost coefficients for turbines in different gas temperature ranges, as shown in Tables 4 and 5.

[0026] Table 5 Total cost coefficient of power turbine in different gas temperature ranges

[0027] Preferably, similar to gas turbines, the materials, cooling structure, and coating scheme used in the combustion chamber flame liner are closely related to the combustion chamber outlet temperature; similar to compressors, the outer diameter and wall thickness of the combustion chamber casing, and the number of nozzles are affected by the inlet conversion flow rate. The combustion chamber casing and flame liner account for more than 95% of the total cost of the combustion chamber.
