Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of design of compressors for aircraft engine cores, and specifically relates to a modular design method for variable cycle core compressor test pieces under semi-constraint. Background Art
[0002] The core engine is the core component of an aircraft engine. The variable cycle core engine adds a front fan in front of the compressor of the conventional cycle core engine, and adds an outer bypass bleed valve between the front fan and the compressor, that is, a core drive fan CDFS is added to adjust the inner and outer bypass air flow. An aircraft engine with a variable cycle core engine, that is, a variable cycle aircraft engine, can have the high thrust-to-weight ratio characteristics of a turbojet engine or a small bypass turbofan engine under supersonic flight through proper control. At the same time, it can have low noise and low fuel consumption characteristics under subsonic flight conditions.
[0003] The design of the core engine begins with the construction of a compressor test piece. Iterations are conducted using the test piece to ultimately determine the core engine configuration. The compressor test piece of a conventional cycle core engine mainly includes a compressor, an intake section connected to the front of the compressor, and an exhaust section connected to the rear of the compressor. When designing a variable cycle core engine, if the design of a conventional cycle core engine is used as a reference and the compressor test piece is constructed from scratch, the cycle required will be long and the cost will be high.
[0004] This application is proposed in view of the above-mentioned technical defects.
[0005] It should be noted that the disclosure of the above background technology content is only used to assist in understanding the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention, and it does not necessarily belong to the prior art of this patent application. In the absence of clear evidence that the above content has been disclosed on the filing date of this application, the above background technology should not be used to evaluate the novelty and creativity of this application. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of this application is to provide a modular design method for a variable cycle core engine compressor test piece under semi-constraint, so as to overcome or alleviate at least one of the known technical defects.
[0007] The technical solution of this application is:
[0008] A modular design method for a variable cycle core compressor test piece under semi-constraint, including:
[0009] On the conventional cycle compressor test specimen configuration, select the constraint interface, including:
[0010] Compressor front exhaust section reference plane L1;
[0011] Compressor front casing installation boundary surface L2
[0012] Compressor rotor mounting boundary surface SR1;
[0013] Typical dimensions on the fixed constraint interface include:
[0014] The bolt hole height K1 and the stopper height H1 on the L1 constraint interface;
[0015] The bolt hole height K2 and the stopper height H2 on the L2 constraint interface;
[0016] The bolt hole height SK1 and the stopper height SH1 on the SR1 constraint interface;
[0017] The conventional cycle compressor test specimen configuration is divided into multiple structural modules according to the constraint interface.
[0018] Under the constraints of the typical size of the constraint interface, the corresponding structural modules of the front fan and the outer bypass bleed valve are designed to replace the corresponding structural modules on the conventional cycle compressor configuration. Each structural module is upgraded to obtain the variable cycle compressor test piece.
[0019] According to at least one embodiment of the present application, in the modular design method of the variable cycle core compressor test piece under semi-constraint, the coordinates of the inner and outer flow channel interfaces are fixed values within the semi-constrained interface constraint extension range.
[0020] According to at least one embodiment of the present application, in the modular design method of the variable cycle core engine compressor test piece under semi-constraint, the semi-constraint interface constraint extension range is ±30 mm.
[0021] This application has at least the following beneficial technical effects:
[0022] A modular design method for a variable cycle core engine compressor test piece under semi-constraint is provided. The design is based on the configuration of a conventional cycle compressor test piece, selects a constraint interface, and fixes the typical size on the constraint interface. The compressor test piece configuration is divided into multiple structural modules according to the constraint interface, and the compressor test piece structure is modularized. Then, under the constraint of the typical size of the constraint interface, a variable cycle compressor test piece is obtained by replacing and upgrading the structural modules. That is, the typical size of the constraint interface is semi-constrained, and the main configuration of the conventional cycle compressor test piece is inherited to obtain the variable cycle compressor test piece. In this way, the variable cycle compressor test piece can be quickly constructed. In addition, within the extension range of the semi-constrained interface constraint, the coordinates of the inner and outer flow channel interfaces are fixed values to ensure a smooth transition between the combinations of the structural modules and the performance of the obtained variable cycle compressor test piece.

[0033] The following is combined with Figures 1 to 6 The modular design method under semi-constraint of the variable cycle core engine compressor test piece provided in this application is further explained in detail.
[0034] The compressor test piece is modularized. Under the premise of meeting the consistency of the interface between modules, each module can be independently designed or upgraded. The semi-constrained design with the typical size of the interface as the constraint is Figure 1-2 , the conditions are as follows:
[0035] L1 is the reference plane of the front exhaust section of the compressor;
[0036] L2 is the installation boundary surface of the compressor front casing;
[0037] SR1 compressor rotor installation boundary surface;
[0038] K2 is the bolt hole height of the L2 interface, and H2 is the stop height of the L2 interface, both of which are fixed values.
[0039] SK1 is the bolt hole height of the SR1 interface, and SH1 is the stop height of the SR1 interface, both of which are fixed values.
[0040] (X i ,Y 1,i ) is the coordinate of the flow channel in the test piece i = 1, 2, 3...;
[0041] (X j ,Y 2,j ) is the outer flow channel coordinate of the test piece j = 1, 2, 3...
[0042] X i+1 -X i =1~10mm;X j+1 -X j =1~10mm;
[0043] Within the range of ±30mm between L1 and L2 interface, the flow channel coordinate (X i ,Y 1,i ) and (X j ,Y 2,j ) is fixed to ensure splicing between modules.
[0044] Replace the L1 interface of the conventional cycle compressor, the L2 interface meets the semi-constrained design requirements, and the (X i ,Y 1,i ) and (X j ,Y 2,j ) The flow path coordinates of the conventional cycle and variable cycle compressors are consistent, and the flow path design of the conventional cycle compressor is inherited to the greatest extent, such as Figure 1-2 shown.
[0045] See also Figure 3 The conventional cycle compressor test specimen M1 primarily consists of an intake module M1-1, a compressor module M1-2, and a rear section module M1-3. The compressor module M1-2 further includes a front casing and first-stage rotor module M1-2-1, a front journal structure module M1-2-2, and second- to sixth-stage modules M1-2-3. The rear section module M1-3 further includes an outlet stator conversion module M1-3-1, an outlet transition section M1-3-2 (a universal module), and an exhaust section M1-3-4 (a universal module). The module combination is premised on the L2 and SR1 interfaces meeting the semi-constrained design criteria. The transition section and exhaust section configurations can adopt those described in patent CN105971920B.
[0046] The CDFS fan module C1 is used to replace the module M1-2-1 to form the variable cycle compressor component module CM1, which is matched with the air intake casing module C2. The rear section module M1-3 of the original test piece is used to form the variable cycle compressor test piece CM2.
[0047] The variable cycle compressor component module CM1 consists of three main structural modules: the front casing assembly C1-1 with ducted bleed function, the rear casing assembly CM1-1, and the rotor assembly N1 with a front fan. Figure 3 shown.
[0048] The rear section module M1-3 of the test piece is a fixed module, which consists of M1-3-1 four-stage outlet stator conversion module, M1-3-2 outlet transfer section module, M1-3-3 high-pressure shaft and M1-3-4 exhaust section, as shown in the figure. Figure 4 shown.
[0049] The CDFS fan module C1 is a replacement functional module, which consists of three structural modules: the C1-1 front casing module with ducted air structure, the front rotor module C1-3 consisting of CDFS fan + 1-stage rotor, and the front journal dedicated module C1-2. Figure 5 shown.
[0050] The rotor of the conventional cycle compressor test piece consists of a 1-stage rotor structure module CM3, a front journal structure module CM2, a 2-stage rotor module CM4, 3-6 stage rotor modules CM5, a high-pressure shaft structure module CM6, an intake section front support CM1, and an exhaust section (universal module) rear support CM7. Figure 6 shown.
[0051] The variable cycle compressor test piece rotor function module consists of CDFS fan + high-pressure 1st stage rotor module (special module) N3, front journal special module N1-2, 2nd stage rotor module CM4, 3rd to 6th stage rotor modules CM5, high-pressure shaft structure module CM6, intake section (special function module) front support point N1-1, exhaust section (general module) rear support point CM7. Among them, the N3 module can be a welded or integral blade disk structure. The 1st stage rotor uses the original blade shape parameters, and the 2nd stage rotor and the rest use the conventional rotor structure, forming a compressor rotor configuration with the diversion effect of a single-stage cantilever fan, such as Figure 6 shown.
[0052] The modular design method of the variable cycle core engine compressor test piece under semi-constraint disclosed in the above embodiment is based on the conventional cycle compressor test piece, takes semi-constraint as the design principle, and forms a variable cycle compressor test piece through module replacement and combination. Only related structures such as the CDFS casing, front rotor, front shaft neck and intake section are added. The remaining structures can adopt the conventional cycle compressor test piece modules, which can shorten the construction period of the cycle core engine compressor test piece and reduce the development cost.

Those skilled in the art should understand that the scope of protection of the present application is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Without departing from the principles of the present application, those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or replacements to the relevant technical features, and the technical solutions after these changes or replacements will fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
