Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of performance test of aero-engine combustion chamber, in particular to a three-dimensional tomography test system and method for ignition process of aero-engine combustion chamber. BACKGROUND

[0002] The aero-engine combustion chamber is one of the core components of the aero-engine, and is the heart of the aero-engine. The ignition performance, especially the high-altitude re-ignition performance, determines the flight envelope of the aircraft to some extent, and further affects the weight, cost, emission of the engine, and the safety of the aircraft, etc. The success or failure of the combustion chamber in the ignition process is mainly affected by the development of the initial flame kernel. Therefore, by studying the ignition process of the combustion chamber, the influence of the development of the initial flame kernel on the ignition performance can be understood, the ignition and extinction mechanism can be further understood, and then an effective method for improving the ignition performance of the combustion chamber can be found. At present, the research on the ignition process of the combustion chamber is mainly through the self-luminous flame, and the development state of the ignition process of the flame kernel is recorded by a high-speed camera. However, this method is limited to two-dimensional plane, that is, the two-dimensional development state of the ignition process of the flame kernel is obtained, and the combustion chamber is a three-dimensional object, so the development state of the flame kernel is also three-dimensional. The computer tomography technology is to record the two-dimensional projection images of the flame distributed at different angles by the cameras, and the three-dimensional distribution of the flame is obtained by processing the images by a reconstruction algorithm, so as to obtain the three-dimensional development state of the ignition process of the flame kernel. Since the 1980s, the tomography technology has been applied in the field of reburning diagnosis, so that the three-dimensional measurement of the high space-time resolution of the turbulent flame becomes possible.

[0003] The structure of the combustion chamber is complex and it is also an incomplete light-transmitting closed object, so it is difficult to implement the three-dimensional tomography measurement test of the combustion chamber. At the same time, since the ignition process of the combustion chamber is a transient development process, the high-speed camera and the igniter need to have synchronicity, that is, the first frame of picture taken by the high-speed camera is the moment when the igniter starts to discharge, and only in this way can the whole ignition process be shot. In addition, the arrangement position of the tomography lens is affected by the test scene, the tomography technology needs two-dimensional images at different angles for reconstruction analysis, and the cameras are large in volume and heavy in weight, so it is impossible to be placed at any angle, thereby increasing the measurement difficulty of the combustion chamber.

(1-4), In the formula, k It is the number of iterations. a i It is the first in matrix A i One element, b i It is a true projection b The first in the matrix i 1 pixel, According to the above method, the three-dimensional tomography reconstruction program is written, and the three-dimensional tomography test system is used to realize the three-dimensional reconstruction of the aero-engine combustion chamber ignition process. k It is a relaxation factor; The first term on the right side of the equation is the result of the iteration of the step k for the pixel, and the second term is the result of distributing the difference between the calculated projection for the pixel in step k and the true projection to that pixel; ​
