[0002] Hydraulic machinery, as a common type of general-purpose machinery, faces the significant challenge of cavitation during operation, particularly in bladed hydraulic machinery. Cavitation occurs when the pressure at a localized location in the liquid drops below its vaporization pressure, triggering a liquid-gas phase transition and generating numerous bubbles. These bubbles then undergo initial formation, development, and collapse in response to pressure changes. Near the blade surface, the shock waves generated by cavitation collapse create honeycomb-like pores, leading to cavitation erosion. This damages the blade material and severely impacts the service life of the hydraulic machinery.
[0003] Currently, computational fluid dynamics methods can be used to perform good numerical simulations of cavitation within a flow, but there is still a lack of fast and accurate methods for predicting the location of cavitation erosion. Summary of the Invention

[0040] Step S150: Based on the intensity cloud map of the blade surface, predict the cavitation location on the blade surface.
[0041] In this embodiment, the blade flow domain refers to the entire area through which the flowing medium passes from the inlet to the outlet of the turbomachinery. Mesh discretization is a widely used method in this technical field and a necessary prerequisite for numerical simulation calculations in subsequent steps; therefore, it will not be elaborated upon further in this application. The cavitation model refers to the modeling of the phase change of the fluid medium in numerical simulation calculations. The monitoring point array is a set of monitoring points composed of a large number of monitoring points, which can monitor the changes in specific physical quantities at each monitoring point location in the blade flow domain over time in real time, intuitively reflecting the flow conditions in the blade flow domain. The cavitation volume fraction refers to the proportion of gas phase per unit volume, with a value range of (0, 1); the larger the value, the more severe the cavitation. The intensity cloud map refers to the cavitation intensity cloud map obtained by superimposing equivalent cavitation intensities on the blade surface.
[0042] In this embodiment, a three-dimensional model of the blade flow domain is constructed, and the three-dimensional model is discretized to obtain a discrete mesh. A cavitation model is introduced, and hydrodynamic numerical simulation calculations are performed on the discrete mesh to obtain the cavitation volume fraction of the discrete mesh. The frequency characteristics of the cavitation volume fraction are obtained through Fourier transform. Based on the dominant frequency of the frequency characteristics of the cavitation volume fraction, the characteristic frequency of cavitation vortex shedding is obtained. The reciprocal of the characteristic frequency of cavitation vortex shedding is calculated to obtain the cavitation variation period. Specifically, this includes obtaining the cavitation volume fraction α based on the previous hydrodynamic numerical simulation calculation results. cav The variation over time was analyzed, and the cavitation volume fraction α was obtained using a fast Fourier transform. cav Frequency variation characteristics, to find cavitation volume fraction α cav The dominant frequency of the frequency variation characteristics, and the cavitation volume fraction α cav The characteristic frequency f of cavitation vortex shedding is obtained by analyzing the dominant frequency. cav Calculate the characteristic frequency f of cavitation vortex shedding. cav The reciprocal of the cavitation change period T is obtained. cav Then, based on the characteristic frequency of cavitation vortex shedding and the three-dimensional model, a monitoring lattice consisting of at least one layer of points distributed along the normal direction of the blade surface is constructed. Based on the cavitation model, numerical simulation calculations are performed on the monitoring lattice to obtain the cavitation volume fraction of all monitoring points in the lattice. Based on the cavitation volume fraction of all monitoring points in the lattice and the known cavitation change period, the cavitation erosion intensity of the blade surface is obtained, and then an intensity cloud map of the blade surface is drawn. Based on the intensity cloud map of the blade surface, the cavitation erosion location on the blade surface is determined.
[0043] This invention provides a method for predicting the location of cavitation erosion on hydraulic machinery blades. The method involves establishing a three-dimensional model of the blade's flow domain and discretizing the model into a discrete mesh. A cavitation model is introduced, and numerical simulations are performed on the discrete mesh to obtain the characteristic frequency of cavitation vortex shedding and the cavitation variation period. Based on the cavitation vortex shedding characteristic frequency and the three-dimensional model, at least one layer of monitoring points distributed along the blade surface normal is constructed. Based on the cavitation model, numerical simulations are performed on the monitoring points to obtain the cavitation volume fraction of the monitoring points. Based on the cavitation volume fraction and cavitation variation period of the monitoring points, the cavitation erosion intensity of the blade surface is obtained, and an intensity cloud map of the blade surface is plotted. Based on the intensity cloud map of the blade surface, the location of cavitation erosion on the blade surface is determined. This invention, through numerical simulation, sets up a monitoring point array along the blade surface normal, and uses the cavitation volume fraction of the monitoring points to plot the intensity cloud map of the blade surface, thereby quickly and accurately predicting the location of cavitation erosion on hydraulic machinery blades. This is of great significance for reducing cavitation erosion damage and improving the service life of hydraulic machinery.
[0044] In one specific embodiment, according to the hydraulic machinery blade cavitation location prediction method provided by the present invention, the step of constructing a monitoring array distributed along the normal direction of the blade surface based on the characteristic frequency of cavitation vortex shedding includes:
[0045] Based on the characteristic frequency of cavitation vortex shedding, a lattice layer of monitoring points at different distances from the blade surface is formed along the normal direction of the blade surface; wherein, the density of the monitoring point lattice is given according to the following empirical formula:
[0046]
[0047] Among them, L P c is the average distance between two adjacent points in the lattice; s V is an empirical coefficient; ∞ f is the circumferential velocity of the impeller's outer diameter. cav This represents the characteristic frequency of cavitation vortex shedding.
[0048] In this embodiment, the density of the monitoring dot matrix is L, which is the average distance L between two adjacent dots in the dot matrix. P To represent; c s This is an empirical coefficient, typically ranging from 0.1 to 10.
[0049] In this embodiment, a structured monitoring array is set along the normal direction of the hydraulic machinery impeller blade, covering different distances h from the blade surface. Generally, several different h positions are selected to establish the monitoring array, and h is related to the maximum blade thickness t. b Regarding this, h = 0.2t is generally chosen. b h = 0.4t b h = 0.6t b h = 0.8t band h = 1.0t b The height of the monitoring points is used to set up a 5-layer monitoring array. The specific density of the monitoring points is given by the empirical formula mentioned above, and will not be repeated here.
[0050] It should be emphasized that, in this application, the average distance L between two adjacent points in the monitoring array P Specifically, this refers to the spacing between two adjacent points in the lattice layer on the blade surface when the distance from the blade surface is h = 0. In other words, when the distance from the blade surface is 0, the monitoring layer on the blade surface only sets points and does not take values; this lattice layer on the blade surface is only used to calibrate the density of the entire monitoring lattice.

By further clarifying the specific path for obtaining the monitoring point array, it strongly supports the rapid and accurate prediction of the location of cavitation erosion on hydraulic machinery blades, which is of great significance for reducing cavitation erosion damage and improving the service life of hydraulic machinery.
