Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the field of science and technology, specifically relating to a method for determining the geometric inlet angle of the inlet airflow angle of the guide vane of a thrust reverser device. Background Technology
[0002] To shorten the landing roll distance of the aircraft, a thrust reverser device for the aero-engine is designed, mainly including a flow deflector and guide vanes. The flow deflector is hinged in a slot in the outer wall of the bypass and has the following characteristics:
[0003] In the forward thrust state, the flow obstruction gate blocks the slot on the outer wall of the outer bypass, forming part of the outer wall of the outer bypass, allowing the airflow of the aero-engine to be discharged normally and providing thrust to the aircraft.
[0004] In reverse thrust mode, the choke deflects inwards towards the outer wall of the bypass, blocking the aero-engine bypass. This forces the airflow through slots in the outer wall of the bypass to exit via guide vanes, providing reverse thrust to the aircraft and thus shortening the landing roll distance. Figure 1 As shown.
[0005] When the thrust reverser of an aero-engine is in reverse thrust mode, the guide vane accelerates and turns the airflow to generate reverse thrust. The aerodynamic performance of the guide vane directly determines the reverse thrust efficiency of the aircraft in reverse thrust mode. The wider the optimal angle of attack range of the guide vane, the smaller the flow loss in its channel, and the stronger its aerodynamic performance and adaptability to the angle of attack of the incoming flow.
[0006] The inlet airflow angle of the guide vane directly affects its aerodynamic performance. In practice, the inlet airflow angle of the guide vane varies greatly from front to back, and the working conditions of the blades are not the same. Simply arranging the blades in an array cannot guarantee that all blades are working within the optimal angle of attack range, which leads to separation and vortices in the vane passage, resulting in reduced flow capacity of the vane passage or even blockage. This reduces the deflection efficiency of the airflow, increases flow losses, and reduces the reverse thrust efficiency of the aircraft.
[0007] Because the components involved in aero-engine thrust reversers and their guide vanes are large and complex, and the flow is complex when in thrust reverse mode, the blade inlet airflow angle and aerodynamic performance are usually not strongly correlated. Currently, most designs are based on the results of three-dimensional flow field simulation analysis of the preliminary layout scheme, followed by optimization and adjustment, and then the design of the blade geometric inlet angle. This technical solution requires a large amount of numerical calculation and iterative design, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and cannot meet the needs of rapid design and iteration of aero-engine thrust reversers and their guide vanes.
[0008] This application is made in view of the aforementioned technical deficiencies.

[0053] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1 to 5 This application will be described in further detail.
[0054] The inlet airflow angle β1 of the first few rows of guide vanes is mainly affected by the guiding and diffusion effects of the outer wall of the duct, and is the angle β1 between the duct outer wall profile and the axis. A Strong correlation; as the axial length changes, the guiding and diffuser effects of the outer wall of the culvert weaken, and the inlet airflow angle β1 gradually decreases.
[0055] When the guide vanes reach a certain distance, the inlet airflow angle β1 will drop to a minimum value and then gradually increase.
[0056] The airflow angle β1 at the inlet of the last few rows of channels behind the guide vane is mainly affected by the huge vortex in front of the flow barrier, and the angle is relatively large.
[0057] Based on the above, this application provides a method for determining the inlet airflow angle of the guide vane cascade of a thrust reverser device. Specifically, the inlet airflow angle of the blade from front to back is summarized as a piecewise linear function of the distance L from the blade to the leading edge of the guide vane cascade, as follows:
[0058] When L = c1·L0, β1 = a1·β A -b1; where c1 = 0, a1 = 1, b1 = 2°, see details. Figure 5 Location of point A in the middle;
[0059] When L = c²·L₀, β₁ = a²·β A -b2; where c2 = 0.055, a2 = 0.70, b2 = 0°, see details. Figure 5 Location of point B in the middle;
[0060] When L = c3·L0, β1 = a3·β A -b3; where c3 = 0.825, a3 = 1.25, b3 = 0°, see details. Figure 5 Location of point C;
[0061] When L = c4·L0, β1 = a4·β E -b4; where c4 = 0.935, a4 = 1.40, b4 = 0°, see details. Figure 5 Location of point D;
[0062] When L = c5·L0, β1 = a5·β E -b5; where c5 = 1, a5 = 1, b5 = 25°, see details. Figure 5 Location of point E in the middle.
[0063] The above-mentioned method for determining the inlet airflow angle of the guide vane cascade blades in the reverse thrust device is based on the actual flow field of the duct where the guide vane cascade is located, and comprehensively considers the influence of the duct outer wall and the flow barrier. The inlet airflow angle β1 of the blades is fitted as the angle β between the duct outer wall profile and the axis. A The angle β between the flow-blocking gate profile and the axis in the reverse state. E The first-order piecewise function relating the distance L from the blade to the front end of the guide vane cascade to the axial length L0 of the guide vane cascade has clear meanings for each term. It is highly efficient for determining the inlet airflow angle of the guide vane cascade blades in the thrust reverser device. Furthermore, it has been verified by experiments and simulations to have high accuracy, which can meet the needs of rapid design and iteration.
[0064] Since the guide vanes of the thrust reverser device of an aero-engine are convergent channels, the blades need to efficiently achieve large airflow deflection, minimize airflow separation and blockage, and ensure the flow capacity of the channel. The blades are typically designed to operate within a negative angle of attack range. Based on the method for determining the inlet airflow angle of the guide vanes of the thrust reverser device disclosed in the above embodiments, this application provides a method for determining the geometric inlet angle of the guide vanes of the thrust reverser device, as detailed below:
