Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of hydraulic dynamometers, and in particular to a high-speed contact sealing structure of a hydraulic dynamometer. Background Art
[0002] With the independent research and development of high-power heavy-duty gas turbines and aircraft engines, it is necessary to carry out various tests such as product performance development, calibration, matching, simulation, reliability and durability performance, and simulate the engine's power performance test on the test bench through a power loading device.
[0003] Due to the advantages of hydraulic dynamometers such as low unit cost, compact size, small inertia, fast transient response, large load absorption, and high-power operation, hydraulic dynamometers have always been important equipment for measuring and diagnosing the power performance of heavy-duty gas turbines and aircraft engines.
[0004] When the hydraulic dynamometer measures the power of the prime mover, the rotor rotates with the prime mover, stirring the water that enters the dynamometer. The water transmits the torque to the stator and housing, and drives the stator housing to rotate at a small angle relative to the dynamometer base. This movement trend of the stator and housing components is blocked by the tension and compression sensor components, and the magnitude of the tension (compression) force is measured by the tension and pressure sensors. Combined with the lever arm length and rotational speed, the power of the prime mover can be obtained.
[0005] At present, the high-speed sealing structure of traditional domestic hydraulic dynamometers will generate a lot of heat when running at high speed, which can easily lead to seal failure and serious leakage, resulting in reduced dynamometer accuracy and unable to meet the development and testing needs of high-power, high-speed, heavy-duty gas turbines and aircraft engines.

[0040] Please refer to Figure 1-23 As shown, a perforated disc hydraulic dynamometer according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a support assembly 100, a housing assembly 200, a stator assembly 300, a rotor assembly 400, a water inlet valve assembly 500, a water outlet valve assembly 600, a calibration device 700, and a speed measuring device 800. Among them:
[0041] The shell assembly 200 is installed on the support assembly 100, and the shell assembly 200 can swing around the horizontal axis on the support assembly 100; the stator assembly 300 and the rotor assembly 400 are installed inside the shell assembly 200, and both ends of the rotating shaft 410 of the rotor assembly 400 pass through the shell assembly 200 along the swing axis of the shell assembly 200, and a high-speed contact sealing structure and a high-speed bearing lubrication sealing structure are also provided between the rotating shaft 410 of the rotor assembly 400 and the shell assembly 200; a water inlet 211 and a water outlet 212 are provided on the shell assembly 200, the water inlet valve assembly 500 is connected to the water inlet 211, and the drain valve assembly 600 is connected to the water outlet 212; the calibration device 700 is installed on the support assembly 100 and connected to both sides of the shell assembly 200 for measuring the torque of the shell assembly 200; the speed measuring device 800 is used to detect the speed of the rotor assembly 400.
[0042] The hydraulic dynamometer operates as follows: the rotating shaft 410 of the rotor assembly 400 is connected to the engine under test. When the engine starts, the rotor assembly 400 rotates, and water flows into the inner cavity of the housing assembly 200 through the water inlet 211. The rotor assembly 400 drives the water toward the inner wall of the housing assembly 200 under the action of centrifugal force, causing the housing assembly 200 to oscillate under the impact of the water. As the water impacts the inner wall of the housing assembly, the frictional resistance of the inner wall reduces its speed, expending kinetic energy and converting the absorbed mechanical energy into heat energy, ultimately increasing the water temperature. Due to the friction between the water and the inner wall, the swing speed of the shell assembly 200 is slower than the rotation speed of the rotor assembly 400. Therefore, the water will prevent the rotation of the rotor assembly 400 and generate a resistance torque. This resistance torque acts directly on the engine through the rotor assembly 400, forming an engine load, or in other words, the water absorbs the engine power. This load can be controlled by adjusting the water inlet and outlet. Therefore, the output torque or driving torque of the engine can be measured by the hydraulic dynamometer, and the output power or driving power of the engine can be calculated in combination with the measured rotational speed of the rotor assembly 400.
[0043] Reference Figure 1-18 The following content will provide a more detailed description of the hole-disc hydraulic dynamometer.
[0044] The support assembly 100 includes a support seat 110, a bearing seat 120 and a bracket 130. The two bearing seats 120 are fixed symmetrically on the support seat 110. The two bearing seats 120 are used to install and support the shell assembly 200. The bracket 130 is fixed on the support seat 110 for installing and supporting the water inlet valve assembly 500.
[0045] The housing assembly 200 includes a center housing 210 and two side housings 220. The side housings 220 are threadedly connected to the center housing 210 via screws. Specifically, through-holes are circumferentially provided in the center housing 210 and the side housings 220. Locking rods 240 extend through these holes, and locking nuts 250 are threadedly connected to the ends of the locking rods 240 to secure the side housings 220 to the center housing 210. A bearing housing 230 is also fixed to the outer end of each side housing 220 of the housing assembly 200. Specifically, the bearing housing 230 abuts against the outer port of the side housing 220 and the two are threadedly connected via screws. A sealing ring 231 is also provided between the bearing housing 230 and the outer port of the side housing 220. The housing assembly 200 is structurally designed to facilitate disassembly and assembly through threaded connections. During installation, the two bearing housings 230 are mounted on the two bearing seats 120 of the support assembly 100 via swing bearings 260, thereby rotatably mounting the housing assembly 200 on the support assembly 100. Swing bearing inner ring covers 270 are also fixedly mounted on the two bearing housings 230, while swing bearing outer ring covers 280 are fixedly mounted on the two bearing seats 120. These inner and outer ring covers 270 and 280 cooperate to protect the swing bearings 260.
[0046] The stator assembly 300 is installed within the inner cavity of the intermediate housing 210 of the housing assembly 200. The stator assembly 300 includes a stator disc 310 and a drain guide ring 320, which are arranged in series at intervals. Both the stator disc 310 and the drain guide ring 320 mate with the inner cavity of the intermediate housing 210. The stator disc 310, drain guide ring 320, and intermediate housing 210 are positioned by a keyway 311 and a key 330. The series connection of the stator disc 310 and drain guide ring 320 facilitates assembly and disassembly. The stator disc 310 has a water inlet 312 inside it, which communicates with the water inlet 211 at the top of the intermediate housing 210. A central through-hole 313, extending through the water inlet 312, is located at the center of the stator disc 310. Stator power absorption holes 314 are located on both end surfaces of the stator disc 310, distributed in a circular array along the circumference of the stator disc 310. The water inlet 312 of the stator disc 310 communicates with the inner cavity of the drainage guide ring 320 through the central through-hole 313. The inner cavity of the drainage guide ring 320, located between the two stator discs 310, forms a drainage channel 321. Drain holes 322, which communicate with the drainage channel 321, are located on both sides of the bottom of the drainage guide ring 320.
[0047] The rotor assembly 400 includes a rotating shaft 410, a rotor plate 420 and a spacer ring 430. The rotating shaft 410 has a non-circular triangular cam segment 411 for mounting the rotor plate 420 and the spacer ring 430. The rotor plate 420 is provided with a non-circular triangular center hole 421, and the spacer ring 430 is also provided with a non-circular triangular center hole 431. The rotor plate 420 and the spacer ring 430 are arranged in an interval and connected in series on the non-circular triangular cam segment 411 of the rotating shaft 410, and the two ends of the series connection are positioned on the rotating shaft 410 by a locking ring. The non-circular triangular cam segment 411 of the rotating shaft 410 has greater torsional strength and stiffness, so that the rotor assembly 400 can meet the testing requirements of high-torque engines. The rotor plates 420 are provided with rotor power absorption holes 422, which are distributed in a circular array along the circumference of the rotor plates 420. After the rotor assembly 400 is installed in the inner cavity of the intermediate housing 210, each rotor plate 420 is installed one-to-one within each drainage channel 321, and the spacer ring 430 is located within the central through-hole 313 of the stator disk 310. During operation, the rotor plates 420 stir the water in the drainage channel 321 through the rotor power absorption holes 422, causing the water to absorb the work of the engine. The rotor assembly 400 is designed with the rotor plates 420 and spacer rings 430 connected in series on the rotating shaft 410, which facilitates assembly and disassembly. Each rotor plate 420 is individually located in each drainage channel 321, which has the advantages of low power absorption density per rotor plate 420, strong cavitation resistance, and low high-speed centrifugal stress.
[0048] The non-circular triangular cam segment 411 of the rotating shaft 410 has cylindrical segments 412 at both ends. A high-speed contact seal structure and a high-speed bearing lubrication seal structure can be installed between the cylindrical segment 412 and the housing assembly 200, thereby meeting the lubrication and high-speed sealing requirements of the high-speed bearing 1200. The rotating shaft 410 also has splines 413 at both ends. The splines 413 are used to fit the rotating shaft 410 with a coupling 440. The outer end of the spline 413 has a threaded hole. The coupling 440 is threadedly connected to the threaded hole of the spline 413 and locked to the end of the rotating shaft 410 via a threaded member. The coupling 440 can be used to connect the rotating shafts 410 of two or more perforated disc hydraulic dynamometers in series, thereby forming a multi-stage series hydraulic dynamometer.
[0049] In this embodiment, the stator disk 310 of the stator assembly 300 is further provided with a first vent hole 315 extending from its edge to the water inlet 312. A first vent pipe 213 is provided on the intermediate housing 210 of the housing assembly 200. The first vent pipe 213 extends from the exterior of the intermediate housing 210 into the interior of the intermediate housing 210 and communicates with the first vent hole 315 on the stator disk 310. A first micro-vacuum balancing valve 214 is mounted on the outer end of the first vent pipe 213. The first vent hole 315, first vent pipe 213, and first micro-vacuum balancing valve 214 allow the water inlet 312 to communicate with the external airflow, achieving internal and external air pressure balance, thereby eliminating bubbles generated in the water inlet 312 during operation. The stator disc 310 is also provided with a second vent hole 316 extending from its edge to both axial ends. A second vent pipe 215 is provided on the side housing 220 of the housing assembly 200. This second vent pipe 215 extends from the exterior of the side housing 220 into the interior of the intermediate housing 210. The inner end of the second vent pipe 215 communicates with the second vent hole 316, and a second micro-vacuum balancing valve 216 is mounted on the outer end of the second vent pipe 215. Through the second vent hole 316, the second vent pipe 215, and the second micro-vacuum balancing valve 216, the drain channel 321 is connected to the external airflow, achieving internal and external pressure balance, thereby eliminating bubbles generated in the drain channel 321 during operation. This elimination of bubbles in the water inlet channel 312 and drain channel 321 effectively reduces or prevents cavitation on the surfaces of the stator disc 310 and rotor plate 420, improving the cavitation resistance and service life of the orifice-disc hydraulic dynamometer. In this example, a cavitation detection rod 221 is installed on each of the two side shells 220 of the shell assembly 200. The inner ends of the two cavitation detection rods 221 are respectively located at the two ends of the stator assembly 300, and can monitor the cavitation phenomenon on the stator disk 310.

The fixed sealing seat 910 is fixed to the side housing 220 by screws 911. A cooling water hole 912 is provided between the outer ring of the fixed sealing seat 910 and the side housing 220. A sealing ring 913 is provided between the outer ring of the fixed sealing seat 910 and the side housing 220. The sealing sleeve 920 is fixed to the fixed sealing seat 910 by bolts 921. The inner ring of the sealing seat 910, a sealing ring 915 is provided between the sealing sleeve 920 and the fixed sealing seat 910; the outer ring of the spring seat 930 cooperates with the inner ring of the fixed sealing seat 910, and the inner ring of the fixed sealing seat 910 is fixed with a retaining ring 914 to axially position the spring seat 930 between the retaining ring 914 and the sealing sleeve 920. The outer ring of the sealing sleeve 920 cooperates with the inner ring of the spring seat 930 and a sealing ring 922 is provided between the two. The sealing sleeve 920 is provided with a guide pin 923 along its axial direction, and the spring seat 930 is provided with a guide pin hole 931 that cooperates with the guide pin 923. A mounting hole is axially provided on one side of 930 facing the sealing sleeve 920, and a pressure spring 932 is installed in the mounting hole. The two ends of the pressure spring 932 are respectively against the spring seat 930 and the sealing sleeve 920. A sealing static ring 933 is nested on the other side of the spring seat 930. The material of the sealing static ring 900 is silicon carbide, which has wear-resistant and high-temperature resistant properties to ensure a good sealing effect; the rotating sealing seat 940 and the water-slinging ring 1000 are sequentially mounted on the rotating shaft 410 from the inside to the outside, and the rotating sealing seat 940 and the water-slinging ring 1000 are axially positioned by cooperating with the pin shaft 941 and the hole, and the two A sealing ring 942 is provided in between, the sealing sleeve 920 is located on the outer ring of the water-throwing ring 1000, the end face of the rotating sealing seat 940 abuts against the end face of the sealing static ring 933 on the spring seat 930, and the fixed sealing seat 910 is also provided with radial through holes 915 distributed along its circumference. The radial through holes 915 connect the gap between the outer ring of the rotating sealing seat 940 and the inner ring of the fixed sealing seat 910 with the cooling water hole 912. The surface of the rotating sealing seat 940 is provided with a sealing spray layer, and the material of the sealing spray layer is hard chromium. The hardness of the sealing spray layer is greater than HRC55, and it has the advantages of wear resistance and high temperature resistance.
[0051] To address this high-speed contact seal structure, the side housing 220 is further provided with a sealed cooling water inlet channel 222 and a sealed water leakage channel 223. Specifically, the sealed cooling water inlet channel 222 extends from the upper portion of the side housing 220 to the cooling water hole 912 on the outer ring of the fixed seal seat 910, while the sealed water leakage channel 223 extends from the bottom of the side housing 220 to the outer side of the fixed seal seat 910. The sealed cooling water inlet channel 222 can be connected to a cooling water circulation system to circulate cold water into the cooling water hole 912 to cool the high-speed contact seal structure. The operating principle is that cold water first enters the cooling water hole 912 through the sealed cooling water inlet channel 222, then enters the outer ring of the sealing stationary ring 933 and the rotating seal seat 940 through radial through-holes 915 for radial cooling. The cooled water then flows axially along the rotating shaft 410 into the inner cavity of the rotor assembly 400, and is ultimately discharged through the water outlet 212 of the housing assembly 200. Furthermore, if the high-speed contact seal fails, water in the inner cavity of the intermediate housing 210 will flow outside the fixed seal seat 910. The water slinger 1000 will sling the cooling water in all directions and into the sealing water leakage channel 223. Therefore, this high-speed contact seal design can meet the sealing requirements during high-speed rotation, prevent oil and water crosstalk, reduce frictional heat through water cooling, and promptly detect leaks in the event of a seal failure.

[0053] For this high-speed bearing lubrication and seal structure, an oil injection pipe 232 is installed on the bearing housing 230. This pipe extends from the outside of the bearing housing 230 to between the outer lubricating oil seal 1300 and the high-speed bearing 1200. An oil sump 224 is installed on the side housing 220, located outside the inner lubricating oil seal 1100. The bearing housing 230 is provided with an oil return hole 233, which connects the oil sump 224 to the inside of the outer lubricating oil seal 1300. The bearing housing 230 is also provided with a lubrication vacuum return oil passage 225, which communicates with the oil sump 224. A bearing temperature sensor 234 is also installed on the bearing housing 230. This sensor extends from the outside of the bearing housing 230 to the outer ring of the high-speed bearing 1200 to measure the temperature of the high-speed bearing 1200. During operation, the oil injection pipe 232 and the lubricating vacuum suction return oil channel 225 are connected to the lubricating oil circulation system. Lubricating oil can be injected into the high-speed bearing 1200 through the oil injection pipe 232, and the lubricating oil can be discharged through the lubricating vacuum suction return oil channel 225. When the bearing temperature sensor 234 detects that the temperature of the high-speed bearing 1200 is too high, an alarm can be issued to the operator to remind inspection.
[0054] The perforated disc hydraulic dynamometer is also equipped with a safety monitoring device 1400 for monitoring the high-speed contact seal structure and high-speed bearing lubrication seal structure on the rotor assembly 400. Specifically, the safety monitoring device 1400 includes a pipeline interface module 1410, a pressure sensor 1420, a temperature sensor 1430, and a data acquisition control box 1440.

According to the temperature of the lubricating oil, it can be determined whether the temperature of the high-speed bearing 1200 is too high. According to the pressure of the lubricating oil and the sealing cooling water, it can be monitored whether the supply pressure of the lubricating oil and the sealing cooling water exceeds the set range and an alarm is issued to prevent the high-speed contact sealing structure and the high-speed bearing lubrication sealing structure from malfunctioning due to lack of water and oil.

[0061] The operating principle of calibration device 700 is as follows: preload arm assembly 720 serves as an auxiliary device to improve the calibration accuracy of calibration device 700. During installation, force measuring arm assembly 710 and preload arm assembly 720 are first installed, followed by calibration arm assembly 730. After force measuring arm assembly 710 and preload arm assembly 720 are installed, the movement of guide rod 724 on guide seat 723 can be adjusted by turning adjustment nut 726, thereby adjusting the tightness of tension spring 725 to achieve the purpose of adjusting the preload tension of tension spring 725. The damping produced by the installation of force measuring arm assembly 710 on housing assembly 200 can also be adjusted, thereby ensuring the accuracy of subsequent calibration. During the calibration process, by turning the upper adjusting nut 734 or the lower adjusting nut 736 on the calibration arm assembly 730, the butterfly spring can apply static calibration pressure or tension to the force transmission rod 733. The magnitude of the static calibration force can be displayed by the force sensor 731. The static calibration force is compared with the value displayed by the tension and pressure sensor 712 on the force arm assembly 710. After measuring several sets of data, the tension and pressure sensor 712 can be calibrated through the calibration program.
[0062] The calibration device 700 can calibrate a wide torque range and can meet the testing requirements of high-power, high-speed rotating machinery. It can achieve stepless adjustment of the static calibration force through the upper and lower adjustment nuts and butterfly springs of the calibration arm assembly 730.
