Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of blade cascade wind tunnel experiments, and in particular relates to a compressor blade cascade experimental device and method. Background Art

[0002] As the performance requirements of aircraft engines continue to increase, the compressor, as one of the key components of aircraft engines, faces the challenge of bearing higher and higher loads, and whether a compressor with superior performance can be designed often determines the performance of the engine. However, the higher the load of the compressor, the higher the boost capacity each row of blades needs to provide, and the higher the aerodynamic design requirements for the blades will be.

[0003] Increasing the turning angle of the airflow after passing through the blades is one of the methods to improve the boosting capacity of the compressor. When a row of blades cannot impose a sufficient airflow turning angle on the airflow, two rows of similar blades can be considered to apply deflection to the airflow respectively. This is the basic idea of ​​the tandem blade grid. The idea of ​​the tandem blade grid was first proposed by Betz A in the 1920s. He proposed a slotted wing to delay the occurrence of boundary layer separation, thereby greatly increasing lift. When the row of blades is changed from one row to two rows of blades, the tandem blade grid has more geometric parameters representing the relative positions of the front and rear rows of blades, including axial spacing and circumferential spacing. For a tandem blade grid, the axial spacing is defined as the distance in the axial direction between the trailing edge of the front row blades and the leading edge of the rear row blades. When the front row blades and the rear row blades do not overlap in the axial direction, the axial spacing is considered to be greater than 0, and when there is overlap, the axial spacing is considered to be less than 0. The circumferential spacing of the tandem blades is defined as the distance between the trailing edge of the front row blades and the leading edge of the rear row blades in the circumferential direction. Both of them are key geometric parameters for determining a tandem blade and play an important role in the flow characteristics of the blades. Only when the tandem blades have appropriate axial spacing and circumferential spacing can their combination achieve better aerodynamic performance.

[0004] In actual compressor operation, the rotor blades rotate at high speed, while the hub is stationary, so there needs to be a certain gap between the tip of the rotor blade and the hub so that the rotor can rotate normally. Similarly, there is generally a gap between the tip of the stator blade and the hub. The value of the gap is generally very small, but this gap will have a great impact on the aerodynamic performance of the compressor. The airflow through the gap causes leakage flow, which will mix the airflows with different energies, affecting the flow field on both sides of the blades, resulting in reduced work capacity and efficiency of the blade row. The size of the blade tip gap is an important parameter in the compressor design process, which will have a considerable impact on the aerodynamic performance and stability of the compressor.

[0005] Plane blade experiments are an important part of compressor blade design and improvement. Although with the development of modern computers, people can use numerical calculation methods to perform detailed aerodynamic calculations on compressor blades, the flow field inside the compressor is very complex. It is still a great challenge to accurately simulate the flow field environment inside the compressor, so the accuracy of numerical calculations still needs to be verified by experiments.

[0006] At present, there are studies on the wake characteristics of tandem blade cascades by changing the axial spacing and circumferential spacing, or exploring the changing rules and action mechanisms of the flow field structure and aerodynamic performance of tandem blade cascades. In the prior art, axial grooves and circumferential grooves are opened in the cascade plate, and the position is adjusted by a slider that can move axially and circumferentially. The blade cascade device designed by this invention can achieve different axial and circumferential position adjustments with a set of blade cascades, but it cannot set the blade tip clearance because the blades must be inserted into the cascade plates at both ends to fix the blades.

[0007] It can be seen that researchers have conducted a lot of research on tandem blades using numerical simulation and experimental methods. However, in the experimental research method, for tandem blades with different geometric parameters, multiple sets of different tandem blades are usually designed and manufactured, and then experiments are carried out in a wind tunnel environment. In this way, if the experiment requires a large number of combinations of geometric parameters such as blade tip clearance, axial spacing, circumferential spacing, etc., the processing cost will increase greatly. If only one set of blade test pieces can be processed to realize the experiment of blades with different geometric parameters, the cost can be greatly saved. Although there is also a solution that can use a set of blade test pieces to achieve different axial spacing and circumferential spacing, it cannot set the blade tip clearance. Therefore, in order to further reduce the processing cost of blade test pieces and save experimental time, it is necessary to improve the current blade test device. Summary of the invention

[0038] The present invention integrates the adjustment method of the relative position of the front and rear blades and the blade tip clearance into a cascade test piece. In this way, after a cascade blowing test is completed, it is not necessary to completely remove the test piece.

Therefore, the cascade test piece structure of the present invention can greatly save the test piece processing cost and the time of the experimenter, can meet the current needs of the cascade variable geometric parameter experiment, and is conducive to the development of cascade experimental research.

[0066] The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, but should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0067] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", "clockwise", "counterclockwise" and the like indicate orientations or positional relationships based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the referred device or element must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0068] The present embodiment is a compressor blade grid experimental device, comprising a main frame, a circumferential spacing adjustment module, an axial spacing adjustment module, and a blade tip clearance adjustment module, wherein the circumferential spacing adjustment module, the axial spacing adjustment module, and the blade tip clearance adjustment module are integrated on the main frame; specifically, the front blade tip clearance, the rear blade tip clearance, the axial spacing, and the circumferential spacing of the tandem blade grid can be adjusted.

[0069] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a compressor tandem blade experimental device proposed in this embodiment includes an upper grid plate 1, a lower grid plate 2, a front blade slider 3, a rear blade slider 4, a front blade fixing plate 5, a rear blade fixing plate 6, a front blade 7, a rear blade 8, a front blade gap adjustment gasket 9, a rear blade gap adjustment gasket 10, an axial pad 12, a circumferential pad 11, a front blade slider pressure plate 13, a rear blade slider pressure plate 14, and a distance column 15. The upper grid plate 1 and the lower grid plate 2 of the device are connected to each other through the distance column 15, which can ensure that the upper and lower grid plates are parallel to each other and the distance between the upper and lower grid plates can be adjusted by adjusting the height of the distance column 15. Between the upper grid plate 1 and the lower grid plate 2 is the test section flow channel of the wind tunnel. This device needs to ensure the sealing of the test section flow channel and minimize air leakage. The front blade 7 and the rear blade 8 are blade tops near the lower grid plate, and there is a certain gap between the blade top and the lower grid plate 2, so that the influence of the blade top gap on the flow field can be studied.

[0070] The structure of the upper grid plate 1 is as follows Figure 5 and Figure 6 The upper grid plate is 15 mm thick, with a front grid plate slot 17 and a rear grid plate slot 18 in the middle, wherein the front grid plate slot 17 is located in the upstream direction of the wind tunnel, and the rear grid plate slot 18 is located in the downstream direction of the wind tunnel, and the middle of the two slots penetrates the grid plate and is connected to each other. Figure 3 As shown, the front blade slider 3 is installed in the front slot 17 of the grid plate, and the position can be adjusted in the slot along the circumferential direction. According to the experimental requirements for the circumferential spacing, after adjusting the front blade slider 3 to a suitable circumferential position, the circumferential pad 11 is used to fill the remaining position on the lower side of the upper grid plate 1, so that the circumferential position of the front blade slider 3 can be fixed and air leakage in the wind tunnel test section can be prevented. In fact, the size of the circumferential pad 11 determines the position of the front blade slider 3, and also determines the relative circumferential position of the front and rear blades of the cascade, that is, the circumferential spacing. Figure 4As shown, the rear blade slider 4 is installed in the rear slot 18 of the grid plate, and the position can be adjusted in the axial direction in the slot. According to the experimental requirements for the axial spacing, after the rear blade slider 4 is adjusted to a suitable axial position, the remaining position in the slot is filled with the axial pad 12, so that the axial position of the rear blade slider 4 can be fixed and air leakage in the wind tunnel test section can be prevented. In fact, the size of the axial pad 12 determines the position of the rear blade slider 4, and also determines the relative axial position of the front and rear blades of the cascade, that is, the axial spacing. However, in order to ensure that the front blade slider can slide in the circumferential direction without air leakage in the wind tunnel test section, the axial clearance can only be adjusted within a range greater than 0, that is, this device is not suitable for the case where the axial spacing of the cascade is <0. There are four circumferential pad fixing holes 26 in the upstream direction of the front slot 17 of the grid plate, all of which are threaded through holes, which are used to install set screws to fix the circumferential pad 11. In order to facilitate the installation in the cascade wind tunnel test section, 10 spacing column installation through holes 16 are provided on both sides of the upper cascade plate 1 for installing the spacing columns 15. When installing, holes that will not interfere can be selected according to the actual situation of the wind tunnel test section. The front blade slider pressure plate 13 and the rear blade slider pressure plate 14 are used to fix the front blade slider 3 and the rear blade slider 4 respectively. There are several pressure plate fixing holes 23 on the upper side of the upper cascade plate 1, all of which are threaded blind holes, for fixing the front blade slider pressure plate 13 and the rear blade slider pressure plate 14 to the upper cascade plate 1.

[0071] The structure of the lower grid plate 2 is as follows Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, there are 10 spacing column installation holes 16 on it, and each spacing column 15 is installed in the middle of the upper grid plate 1 and the lower grid plate 2 by two screws, one on the left and one on the right, to connect, fix and control the distance between the upper and lower grid plates. Because the lower grid plate is at the blade tip gap, the fluid flow effect during the experiment is complex, so it is necessary to ensure that the wall surface is flat and smooth.

[0072] Front leaf slider 3 Fig. 9 and Fig.10As shown, the thickness is 15mm, and its size can ensure clearance fit with the grid plate front groove 17, and can slide in the groove along the circumferential direction. The front leaf slider 3 is provided with 7 through front leaf slider slots 19 at equal intervals along the circumferential direction. The front leaf slider slot 19 is a step groove, and the height from the 19A plane to the 19B plane in the groove is 10mm, and the shape matches the blade profile of the 7A part of the front blade 7; the height from the 19B plane in the groove to the 19C plane is 5mm, and the shape matches the blade profile of the 7B part of the front blade 7, so that the front blade 7 can pass through the front leaf slider slot 19 through clearance fit. The recommended situation is: when the 7C plane of the front blade 7 is adjusted to be coplanar with the 19A plane of the front blade slider slot 19, the front blade tip clearance is 0, that is, the tip of the front blade 7 touches the lower grid plate 2. In this case, when the 7C plane of the front blade 7 is adjusted to be coplanar with the 19B plane of the front blade slider slot 19, the front blade tip clearance is 10mm, so that the tip clearance can be adjusted from 0mm to 10mm. There are 4 front blade fixing plate fixing holes 24 on one side of the front blade slider 3, all of which are threaded blind holes, used to connect the front blade slider 3 with the front blade fixing plate 5.

[0073] Rear leaf slider 3 Fig.11 and Fig.12 As shown, the thickness is 15mm, and its size can ensure clearance fit with the grid plate rear groove 18, and can slide axially in the groove. The rear leaf slider 4 is provided with 7 through rear leaf slider slots 20 at equal intervals along the circumferential direction. The rear leaf slider slots 20 are step grooves, and the height from the 20A plane to the 20B plane in the groove is 10mm, and the shape matches the blade profile of the 8A part of the rear blade 8; the height from the 20B plane in the groove to the 20C plane is 5mm, and the shape matches the blade profile of the 8B part of the rear blade 8, so that the rear blade 8 can pass through the rear leaf slider slots 20 through clearance fit. The recommended situation is: when the 8C plane of the rear blade 8 is adjusted to be coplanar with the 20A plane of the rear blade slider slot 20, the rear blade tip clearance is 0, that is, the tip of the rear blade 8 touches the lower grid plate 2. In this case, when the 8C plane of the rear blade 8 is adjusted to be coplanar with the 20B plane of the rear blade slider slot 20, the rear blade tip clearance is 10mm, so that the tip clearance can be adjusted from 0mm to 10mm. There are 4 rear blade fixing plate fixing holes 25 on one side of the rear blade slider 4, all of which are threaded blind holes, used to connect the rear blade slider 4 with the rear blade fixing plate 6.

[0074] Front leaf fixed block 5 Fig.13 and Fig.14As shown. The thickness of the front leaf fixing block 5 is 12 mm, and 7 front leaf fixing block slots 21 are opened on it at equal intervals along the circumferential direction. The shape of the slot matches the blade shape of the 7A part of the front blade 7, so that the front blade 7 can pass through the slot to form a gap fit with it. Front leaf fixing holes 26 are opened on one side of the front leaf fixing block 5, all of which are threaded holes, used to install pointed set screws to fix the front blade 7. There are 2 front leaf fixing holes 26 in each front leaf fixing block slot 21. Using 2 set screws to fix 1 front blade can ensure the stability of the installation. The front leaf slider 3 and the front leaf fixing plate 5 are connected in the middle by the front leaf gap adjustment pad 9. Because the front leaf slider 3 is fixedly connected to the upper grid plate 1, and the front leaf fixing plate 5 is fixedly connected to the front blade 7, the spanwise position of the front blade 7 can be adjusted by adjusting the thickness of the front leaf gap adjustment pad 9, that is, the blade tip gap of the front leaf can be changed.
