[0035] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, but it is not limited to the present invention.

[0036] The wide-load blade profile for deep peak shaving of steam turbine units in this embodiment will be described in combination with Figure 1 to - Figure 4 to illustrate this embodiment. The profile line consists of 4 parts: the inlet arc 1, the pressure surface curve 2, the suction surface curve 3, and the outlet arc 4. The ratio μ of the diameter of the outlet arc 4 to the diameter of the inlet arc 1 has the following characteristics. When applied to the last two-stage static blades of the low-pressure stage, 0.023 ≤ μ ≤ 0.056; when applied to the static blades of other stages, 0.134 ≤ μ ≤ 0.161; when applied to the last two-stage moving blades of the low-pressure stage, 0.196 ≤ μ ≤ 0.536; when applied to the moving blades of other stages, 0.062 ≤ μ ≤ 0.173. The pressure surface curve 2 and the suction surface curve 3 are generated by B-spline curves. The pressure surface curve 2 is tangent to the edge points of the inlet arc 1 and the outlet arc 4, and the suction surface curve 3 is tangent to the edge points of the inlet arc 1 and the outlet arc 4. The ratio λ of the throat size o to the pitch t has the following characteristics, 0.26 ≤ λ ≤ 0.44. The ratio κ of the maximum thickness Dmax of the blade profile to the chord length b has the following characteristics. When applied to the last two-stage static blades of the low-pressure stage, 0.172 ≤ κ ≤ 0.291; when applied to the static blades of other stages, κ = 0.324; when applied to the last two-stage moving blades of the low-pressure stage, 0.048 ≤ κ ≤ 0.180; when applied to the moving blades of other stages, κ = 0.275. The installation angle α of the blade profile for the static blade y has the following characteristics, 40.74° ≤ α y ≤ 62.30°. The geometric inlet angle α of the blade profile has the following characteristics. When applied to the last two-stage static blades of the low-pressure stage, 50.31° ≤ α ≤ 75.16°; when applied to the static blades of other stages, 70.27° ≤ α ≤ 96.27°; when applied to the last two-stage moving blades of the low-pressure stage, 37.34° ≤ α ≤ 133.33°; when applied to the moving blades of other stages, 87.05° ≤ α ≤ 133.62°.

[0037] Example 1. This embodiment applies the blade profile to the low-pressure last-stage blades of a peaking steam turbine unit. The wide-load blade profile of this embodiment is stacked according to the following method. Along the radial position of the stator blade from 0% to 100%, the diameter of the exit arc 4 and the diameter of the inlet arc 1 The ratio μ increases from 0.026 to 0.053. The ratio κ of the maximum thickness D max of the blade profile to the chord length b increases from 0.176 to 0.288. The geometric inlet angle α of the blade profile increases from 51.53° to 74.39°. The blade profile adopts an inclined and twisted manner along the blade height and is smoothly transitioned to generate the stator blade.

[0038] Example 2. The wide-load blade profile of this embodiment is stacked according to the following method. Along the radial position of the rotor blade from 0% to 100%, the diameter of the exit arc 4 and the diameter of the inlet arc 1 The ratio μ decreases from 0.504 at the 0% position to 0.205 at the 50% position and then increases to 0.521 at the 100% position; the ratio κ of the maximum thickness D max of the blade profile to the chord length b decreases from 0.167 to 0.049. The geometric inlet angle α of the blade profile increases from 40.29° to 161.53°. The blade profile adopts an inclined and twisted manner along the blade height and is smoothly transitioned to generate the rotor blade.

[0039] The full three-dimensional CFD simulation is used to calculate and compare the aerodynamic performance of the last stage at different loads. When operating at the 50% load and a back pressure of 3.21 kPa, the efficiency of the last-stage blade is 2.5% higher than that at the 100% load and a back pressure of 4.65 kPa; when operating at the 25% load and a back pressure of 2.63 kPa, the scale of the recirculation vortex is only about 17% of the outlet height. The reaction degree at the root of the low-pressure last-stage blade is above 0.15 within a relatively wide load range. At about 47% load condition, the reaction degree at the root starts to be lower than 0.15, and at the 25% load condition, the reaction degree at the root starts to be negative.
