Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of large low-lift water transfer projects, and particularly relates to a large tubular pump water pressure oscillation amplitude prediction method based on a virtual target point matrix. BACKGROUND

[0002] The large tubular pump device is a large-flow and low-lift pump type frequently used in the field of large low-lift water transfer projects, and has a large device size and a diameter of an impeller that can exceed 3 m. The impeller has a low rotating speed, and is usually around 125 r / min. Under the coupling effect of such a large size and low rotating speed, the gravity effect of the large tubular pump device with a horizontal structure is particularly prominent, and there is always a constant pressure difference disturbance along the gravity direction, so that severe water pressure oscillation is easily induced at an inlet of a guide vane. However, since field testing of the prototype of the large tubular pump device is difficult to carry out, at present, quantitative evaluation of the water pressure oscillation amplitude can only rely on the traditional similarity principle, and the water pressure oscillation amplitude is calculated according to experimental or numerical simulation results of a device model according to the principle of hydraulic consistency. However, due to the influence of the significant gravity effect, it has been observed in actual operation that the water pressure oscillation amplitude at the inlet of the guide vane of the prototype of the large tubular pump device presents a strong non-symmetrical distribution feature that is completely different from that of the device model, and the feature also produces complex changes with changes in the device size and the time sequence position of the guide vane, thereby causing difficulties in rapid and accurate evaluation of the water pressure oscillation amplitude of the large tubular pump device. However, up to now, there has been no report on a high-efficiency prediction method for the water pressure oscillation amplitude of the large tubular pump device at home and abroad.

[0003] Therefore, in order to solve the problem that the water pressure oscillation amplitude of the large tubular pump device under large-scale and multi-time sequence conditions is difficult to accurately predict, the present application gives a practical high-efficiency prediction method for the water pressure oscillation amplitude on the basis of in-depth analysis of the water pressure oscillation characteristics at the inlet of the guide vane of the large tubular pump device, thereby providing reliable technical support for quantitative evaluation of the hydraulic stability of the large tubular pump device.

[0041] The present application proposes a prediction method of the water pressure oscillation amplitude of a large tubular pump based on a virtual target point matrix, which will be further described below in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0042] Figure 1 The implementation flowchart of the prediction method of the water pressure oscillation amplitude of a large tubular pump device based on a virtual target point matrix provided by the present application; Figure 2 The structure schematic diagram of the large tubular pump device of the present application; the prediction method of the water pressure oscillation amplitude of a large tubular pump device based on a virtual target point matrix of the present embodiment is specifically implemented as follows:

[0043] Step 1: Determine the relevant characteristic parameters of the given large-scale axial flow pump device, including impeller diameter D = 2.4m, number of guide vanes Z = 7, and rated head H = 7.72m.

[0044] Step 2: Based on the given large-scale axial flow pump assembly, such as... Figure 3 As shown, on the annular cross-section of the guide vane inlet, with the axis center as the origin, the top position as the circumferential starting point, and the clockwise direction observed from the guide vane inlet as the positive circumferential direction, the circumferential coordinates are denoted as θ. The direction from the hub to the rim of the annular cross-section is taken as the positive radial direction, and the radial coordinates are denoted as s. The value of s is equal to the ratio of the distance from any point within the annular cross-section to the hub to the distance from the rim to the hub; therefore, s = 0 at the hub and s = 1 at the rim. Starting from the circumferential starting point θ = 0, 13 virtual wheel target points are set along the positive direction at intervals of π / 6 and sequentially denoted as θ1 to θ2. 13 Starting from the circumferential starting point θ = 0, five virtual timing target points are set along the positive direction with an interval of π / 2Z and are sequentially denoted as λ1 to λ5. The circumferential coordinate of the guide vane inlet side that is on the positive direction side and closest to the circumferential starting point is designated as the characteristic timing coordinate λ.

[0045] Step 3: Introduce the startup matrix [P1]~[P5]. Based on the given large-scale axial flow pump device, if the characteristic time-series coordinate of interest λ=0, calculate the virtual time-series target matrix [A] using the following formula:

[0046]

[0047] In the formula, tanh(·) is the hyperbolic tangent function; ξ is an empirical constant with a value of 0.013; λ is the characteristic time series coordinate; k is the outer target point count sign; [P k ] represents the activation matrix corresponding to the outer target counting symbol k; λ k For the outer target counting symbol k, the virtual time-series target symbol is k; for the inner target counting symbol m, the inner target counting symbol is m; for the inner target counting symbol m, the inner target counting symbol m is m. m The virtual time-series target corresponding to the inner target counting symbol m.

[0048] The startup matrices [P1] to [P5] are as follows:

[0049]

[0050]

[0051]

[0052]

[0053] Step 4: Using the aforementioned virtual time-series target matrix [A], calculate the virtual wheel target matrix [B] according to the following expression to characterize the virtual wheel state at the guide vane inlet of the large-scale axial flow pump device.

[0054]

[0055] In the formula, the superscript T represents the transpose operation of the matrix.

[0056] Step 5: Using the aforementioned virtual wheel target matrix [B], calculate the radial topological function C(s) according to the following expression to characterize the radial topological characteristics of the water pressure oscillation amplitude of the large-scale axial flow pump device.

[0057] If the circumferential coordinate of the point of interest is θ = π, the radial topology function C(s) can be calculated using the following formula:

[0058]

[0059] In the formula, ln(·) is the natural logarithm function; INT(·) is the floor function; α and β are empirical constants, with values ​​of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 ...

[0060] 0.014; π is the mathematical constant pi; i is the outer target point count symbol; θ i The outer target counting symbol i represents the virtual wheel target; j represents the inner target counting symbol; θ j t represents the virtual roulette target corresponding to the inner target counting symbol j; t represents the interval discrimination number of the virtual roulette target.

[0061] Step 6: When it is necessary to evaluate the water pressure oscillation amplitude of a large-scale axial flow pump device, first input the characteristic time-series coordinate λ of the point of interest, and obtain the required virtual time-series target matrix [A] and virtual wheel target matrix [B] according to Step 3 and Step 4; then input the circumferential coordinate θ of the point of interest, and obtain the required radial topology function C(s) according to Step 5.

[0062] Given a large-scale axial flow pump device, if the radial coordinate of the point of interest is s = 0.5, the water pressure oscillation amplitude ΔP at the point of interest can be predicted using the following formula:

[0063]

[0064] In the formula, ρ is the water flow density, with units of kg / m³. 3 g is the acceleration due to gravity, with units of m / s². 2 H is the rated head, in meters; D is the impeller diameter, in meters; γ, These are empirical constants, with values ​​of 0.141 and 0.422, respectively.

[0065] According to the calculation method in the above embodiment, when the impeller diameter D = 2.4m, the number of guide vanes Z = 7, the rated head H = 7.72m, the water pressure oscillation amplitude ΔP at the circumferential coordinate θ = 0, π / 6, π / 3, π / 2, 2π / 3, 5π / 6, π, 7π / 6, 4π / 3, 3π / 2, 10π / 3, 11π / 3, 2π, respectively, the characteristic time sequence coordinate λ = 0, the radial coordinate s = 0.5, the variation diagram of the water pressure oscillation amplitude with the circumferential coordinate under the condition is drawn, and the calculation results of the high-precision numerical simulation method verified by experiments and the calculation results of the existing prediction method based on the principle of hydraulic consistency are compared, as shown in FIG. 1. Figure 4 If the impeller diameter D = 4.2m, the rated head H = 7.83m, and the remaining conditions remain the same as above, the variation diagram of the water pressure oscillation amplitude with the circumferential coordinate under the condition is drawn, and the calculation results of the high-precision numerical simulation method verified by experiments and the calculation results of the existing prediction method based on the principle of hydraulic consistency are compared, as shown in FIG. 2. Figure 5

[0066] It can be seen from the analysis that the existing prediction method is usually based on the principle of hydraulic consistency, and the water pressure oscillation amplitude ΔP / ρgH at the same relative position in the original model is considered to be equal according to the experimental or numerical simulation results of the device model, so that the water pressure oscillation amplitude of the device prototype is greatly underestimated, and the precision requirement of engineering calculation cannot be met, which may increase the instability risk of the device prototype. The high-precision numerical simulation method can accurately predict the water pressure oscillation amplitude of the guide vane inlet of the large tubular pump device, but the implementation process is complex and the calculation efficiency is low, which cannot meet the efficient demand of engineering calculation. In comparison, the prediction method of the present application has a simple implementation process and high calculation efficiency, and the water pressure oscillation amplitude obtained by using the method is very close to the high-precision actual result, and the relative error at most positions is controlled within 5%, the prediction accuracy is obviously better than the calculation result of the existing prediction method, and the high-efficient and precise demand of engineering calculation can be met.

[0067] In summary, for a given large tubular pump device, the prediction method of the present application can quickly and accurately estimate the water pressure oscillation amplitude at any concerned position of the guide vane inlet cross section, which is simple and efficient, and can solve the problem that the existing method cannot accurately predict the water pressure oscillation amplitude of the large tubular pump device under the condition of large scale and multiple time sequences, thereby providing reliable technical support for the quantitative evaluation of the hydraulic stability of the large tubular pump device.​
