Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the technical field of aero-engine combustion chamber components and their connection structure with the compressor, specifically relating to an aero-engine combustion chamber component and its connection structure with the compressor. Background Technology

[0002] To address the dual requirements of high temperature resistance and lightweight design, diffusers in aero-engine combustion chambers are currently mostly made of lightweight, high-temperature resistant, high-strength, low-plasticity materials, such as γ-TiAl intermetallic compounds. However, these materials have poor weldability and are highly sensitive to notches. In current aero-engines, the diffuser is connected between the inner and outer walls of the combustion chamber and the last-stage stator of the compressor. The connection between the diffuser and the inner and outer walls of the combustion chamber is mostly supported by welding, and it needs to withstand the transmission of axial forces between the inner and outer walls of the combustion chamber. This makes it prone to damage at stress concentration points and surface defects, and the damage is irreparable.

[0003] This application is made in view of the aforementioned technical deficiencies.

[0054] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1 to 4 This application will be described in further detail.

[0055] An aero-engine combustion chamber component and its connection structure with the compressor, comprising:

[0056] Combustion chamber exterior wall 1;

[0057] The inner wall 2 of the combustion chamber is installed inside the outer wall 1 of the combustion chamber;

[0058] The rear end of the compressor stator assembly 3 is connected to the front end of the outer wall of the combustion chamber outer wall 1 by an annular connecting edge, and the rear end of its inner wall is connected to the front end of the combustion chamber inner wall 2 by a connecting edge.

[0059] The diffuser 4 is made of a lightweight, high-temperature resistant, high-strength, low-plasticity material. It is installed inside the outer wall 1 of the combustion chamber and located inside the inlet of the outer wall 1. It is supported by bolts to the outer wall 1 or the inner wall 2 of the combustion chamber via connecting edges. The front end of its inner wall is connected to the rear end of the inner wall of the last stage stator assembly 3 of the compressor with a stop fit, and the front end of its outer wall is connected to the rear end of the outer wall of the last stage stator assembly 3 of the compressor with a stop fit.

[0060] Regarding the aero-engine combustion chamber components and their connection structure with the compressor disclosed in the above embodiments, those skilled in the art will understand that, in the case that the diffuser 4 is manufactured from a lightweight, high-temperature resistant, high-strength, low-plasticity material, the outer wall 1 and the inner wall 2 of the combustion chamber are connected through the stator of the compressor's final stage stator assembly 3 to transmit axial forces. The diffuser 4 is supported by bolts to the outer wall 1 or the inner wall 2 of the combustion chamber via connecting edges. The front end of the inner wall of the diffuser 4 is connected to the rear end of the inner wall of the compressor's final stage stator assembly 3 with a stop fit, and the front end of the outer wall is connected to the rear end of the outer wall of the compressor's final stage stator assembly 3 with a stop fit to achieve positioning. This avoids direct welding connections between the diffuser 4 and the outer wall 1 and the inner wall 2 of the combustion chamber, and prevents damage at stress concentration points or surface defect points.

[0061] The aero-engine combustion chamber components and their connection structure with the compressor disclosed in the above embodiments are designed as follows in Example 1: Figure 1 As shown, the outer rear end of the compressor stator assembly 3 is welded to the inner front end of the combustion chamber outer wall 1 via an annular connecting edge.

[0062] The outer rear end of the inner wall of the compressor final stage stator assembly 3 is welded to the front end of the combustion chamber inner wall 2 via a connecting edge.

[0063] The combustion chamber wall 2 is divided into two sections, front and rear, which are connected by bolts through an outward annular connecting edge;

[0064] The front end of the inner wall of the diffuser 4 and the rear end of the inner wall of the last stage stator assembly 3 of the compressor are fitted with a small clearance in the radial direction. The maximum clearance in the cold state is no more than 0.05mm, and centering is performed thereon.

[0065] The front end of the outer wall of the diffuser 4 and the rear end of the outer wall of the last stage stator assembly 3 of the compressor adopt a large clearance fit in the radial direction. The maximum clearance in the cold state is not less than 1 mm, so as to compensate for the radial deformation between the diffuser 4 and the last stage stator assembly 3 of the compressor.

[0066] A W-shaped elastic sealing ring 5 is installed at the stop between the front end of the outer wall of the diffuser 4 and the rear end of the outer wall of the last stage stator assembly 3 of the compressor. The W-shaped elastic sealing ring 5 is pre-compressed axially to ensure the seal at the stop between the front end of the outer wall of the diffuser 4 and the rear end of the outer wall of the last stage stator assembly 3 of the compressor. The pre-compression of the W-shaped elastic sealing ring 5 is not greater than 15% of the working stroke. There is an axial gap between the front end of the inner and outer walls of the diffuser 4 and the rear end of the inner and outer walls of the last stage stator assembly 3 of the compressor. This gap can compensate for the axial deformation between the diffuser 4 and the last stage stator assembly 3 of the compressor. The gap can be designed to be no greater than 50% of the working stroke of the W-shaped elastic sealing ring 5 to ensure that the compression of the W-shaped elastic sealing ring 5 does not exceed 50% of the working stroke and to avoid damage to the W-shaped elastic sealing ring 5.

[0067] The outer rear end of the diffuser 4 is connected to the inner front end of the outer wall of the combustion chamber 1 by bolts through a connecting edge. The nut at this point is a plate nut, which is connected to the connecting edge on the inner front end of the outer wall of the combustion chamber 1. The corresponding bolt hole on the connecting edge of the outer rear end of the diffuser 4 is a runway-shaped hole. The long side of the runway-shaped hole is parallel to the radial direction of the aero-engine to reduce the stress concentration at the bolt hole on the connecting edge of the outer rear end of the diffuser 4. The length of the long side is at least 2 mm greater than the mean diameter of the corresponding bolt to allow for radial deformation of the diffuser 4.

[0068] In Example 1, the disclosed aero-engine combustion chamber components and their connection structure with the compressor, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it also includes:

[0069] The flame tube 6 is set between the outer wall 1 of the combustion chamber and the inner wall 2 of the combustion chamber. Its rear end is axially floatingly connected to the front end of the turbine guide 7. The inner wall of the turbine guide 7 is supported by a pre-rotating nozzle on the inner side of the rear end of the inner wall 2 of the combustion chamber through the connecting edge.

[0070] The front cover 8 of the outer wall of the flame tube is connected to the front end of the outer wall of the flame tube 6;

[0071] The inner wall front cover 9 of the flame tube is connected to the front end of the inner wall of the flame tube 6 and is bent towards each other with the outer wall front cover 8 of the flame tube.

[0072] Multiple fuel swirl nozzles 10 are arranged circumferentially at the head of the flame tube 6, and their fuel injection rods are arranged through the front cover 8 of the outer wall of the flame tube and the outer wall 1 of the combustion chamber, and are connected to the outer wall 1 of the combustion chamber by means of a mounting bracket.

[0073] Multiple ignition nozzles 11 are arranged circumferentially on the flame tube 6, and their support rods are set through the outer wall 1 of the combustion chamber and connected to the outer wall 1 of the combustion chamber by means of a mounting base.

[0074] In Example 1, the disclosed aero-engine combustion chamber components and their connection structure with the compressor, such as... Figure 2 As shown, there is a radial overlap between the rear end of the outer wall front cover 8 of the flame tube and the front end of the outer wall of the flame tube 6.

[0075] There is a radial overlap between the rear end of the inner wall front cover 9 of the flame tube and the front end of the inner wall of the flame tube 6.

[0076] The aero-engine combustion chamber component and its connection structure with the compressor also include:

[0077] Multiple flame tube outer wall positioning rods 12 are provided through the radial overlap between the outer wall 1 of the combustion chamber, the rear end of the flame tube outer wall front cover 8 and the front end of the flame tube 6 outer wall, and are distributed circumferentially. Positioning bushings are provided at the radial overlap between the rear end of the flame tube outer wall front cover 8 and the front end of the flame tube 6 outer wall.

[0078] Multiple flame tube inner wall positioning rods 13 are installed through the radial overlap between the inner wall 2 of the combustion chamber, the rear end of the inner wall front cover 9 of the flame tube, and the front end of the inner wall of the flame tube 6. They are distributed circumferentially and positioning bushings are installed at the radial overlap between the inner wall front cover 9 of the flame tube and the front end of the inner wall of the flame tube 6. Thus, multiple flame tube outer wall positioning rods 12 and flame tube inner wall positioning rods 13 can be used to position the flame tube 6 at multiple points on the outer wall 1 of the combustion chamber and the inner wall 2 of the combustion chamber, while allowing a certain degree of radial deformation.

[0079] In Example 1, the disclosed aero-engine combustion chamber components and their connection structure with the compressor, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the inner side of the outer wall 1 of the combustion chamber is formed with a support seat that surrounds the positioning rod 12 of each flame tube outer wall. The outer contour of the support seat along the rearward axis of the aero-engine is a subsonic airfoil to reduce the pressure loss of the airflow.

[0080] The inner wall 2 of the combustion chamber is formed with a support seat that surrounds the positioning rod 13 of each flame tube. The outer contour of the support seat along the rearward axis of the aero-engine is a subsonic airfoil to reduce the pressure loss of the airflow.

[0081] The aero-engine combustion chamber components and their connection structure with the compressor disclosed in the above embodiments are designed as follows in Example 2: Figure 3As shown, the outer rear end of the compressor stator assembly 3 is welded to the inner front end of the combustion chamber outer wall 1 via an annular connecting edge.

[0082] The outer rear end of the inner wall of the compressor final stage stator assembly 3 is welded to the front end of the combustion chamber inner wall 2 via a connecting edge.

[0083] The combustion chamber wall 2 is divided into two sections, front and rear, which are connected by bolts through an outward annular connecting edge;

[0084] The front end of the inner wall of the diffuser 4 and the rear end of the inner wall of the last stage stator assembly 3 of the compressor adopt a large clearance fit in the radial direction. The maximum clearance in the cold state is not less than 1 mm, so as to compensate for the radial deformation between the diffuser 4 and the last stage stator assembly 3 of the compressor.

[0085] The front end of the outer wall of the diffuser 4 and the rear end of the outer wall of the last stage stator assembly 3 of the compressor adopt a large clearance fit in the radial direction. The maximum cold-state fit clearance is not less than 1mm to compensate for the radial deformation between the diffuser 4 and the last stage stator assembly 3 of the compressor.

[0086] A W-shaped elastic sealing ring 5 is installed at the stop positions of the inner and outer walls of the diffuser 4 and the inner and outer walls of the compressor's last stage stator assembly 3. The W-shaped elastic sealing ring 5 is pre-compressed axially to ensure the sealing at the stop positions of the inner and outer walls of the diffuser 4 and the compressor's last stage stator assembly 3. The pre-compression amount of the W-shaped elastic sealing ring 5 is not greater than 15% of the working stroke. There is also an axial gap between the inner and outer walls of the diffuser 4 and the inner and outer walls of the compressor's last stage stator assembly 3 to compensate for axial deformation between the diffuser 4 and the compressor's last stage stator assembly 3. This gap can be designed to be no greater than 50% of the working stroke of the W-shaped elastic sealing ring 5 to ensure that the compression amount of the W-shaped elastic sealing ring 5 does not exceed 50% of the working stroke and to avoid damage to the W-shaped elastic sealing ring 5.

[0087] The outer rear end of the diffuser 4 is bolted to the inner front end of the outer wall of the combustion chamber 1 via a connecting edge. The connecting edges have a stop fit with a radial clearance not exceeding 0.05mm for centering. Furthermore, the nut at this point is a support nut, attached to the connecting edge on the inner front end of the outer wall of the combustion chamber 1. The corresponding bolt hole on the outer rear end of the diffuser 4 is a runway-shaped hole, with its long side parallel to the radial direction of the aero-engine. This reduces stress concentration at the bolt hole on the outer rear end of the diffuser 4, and the long side is at least 2mm longer than the corresponding bolt's mean diameter to allow for radial deformation of the diffuser 4.

[0088] The aero-engine combustion chamber components and their connection structure with the compressor disclosed in the above embodiments are designed as follows in Example 3: Figure 4 As shown, the outer rear end of the compressor stator assembly 3 is welded to the inner rear end of the combustion chamber outer wall 1 via an annular connecting edge.

[0089] The rear end of the inner wall of the compressor final stage stator assembly 3, the front end of the combustion chamber inner wall 2, and the rear end of the inner wall of the diffuser 4 are connected by bolts through an outward annular connecting edge. At this point, the outward annular connecting edge of the rear end of the inner wall of the diffuser 4 and the outward annular connecting edge of the rear end of the inner wall of the compressor final stage stator assembly 3 and the front end of the combustion chamber inner wall 2 are fitted with a stop. The maximum interference in the radial direction of the fit clearance does not exceed 0.1 mm, and the maximum clearance does not exceed 0.025 mm, for centering purposes.

[0090] The front end of the inner wall of the diffuser 4 and the rear end of the inner wall of the last stage stator assembly 3 of the compressor adopt a large clearance fit in the radial direction. The maximum clearance in the cold state is not less than 1 mm, so as to compensate for the radial deformation between the diffuser 4 and the last stage stator assembly 3 of the compressor.

[0091] The front end of the outer wall of the diffuser 4 and the rear end of the outer wall of the last stage stator assembly 3 of the compressor adopt a large clearance fit in the radial direction. The maximum clearance in the cold state is not less than 1 mm, so as to compensate for the radial deformation between the diffuser 4 and the last stage stator assembly 3 of the compressor.

[0092] A W-shaped elastic sealing ring 5 is installed at the stop positions of the inner and outer walls of the diffuser 4 and the inner and outer walls of the compressor's last-stage stator assembly 3. The W-shaped elastic sealing ring 5 is pre-compressed axially to ensure sealing at the stop positions of the inner and outer walls of the diffuser 4 and the compressor's last-stage stator assembly 3. The pre-compression of the W-shaped elastic sealing ring 5 is no more than 15% of the working stroke. There is also an axial gap between the inner and outer walls of the diffuser 4 and the inner and outer walls of the compressor's last-stage stator assembly 3 to compensate for axial deformation between the diffuser 4 and the compressor's last-stage stator assembly 3. This gap can be designed to be no more than 50% of the working stroke of the W-shaped elastic sealing ring 5 to ensure that the compression of the W-shaped elastic sealing ring 5 does not exceed 50% of the working stroke, thus avoiding damage to the W-shaped elastic sealing ring 5.

[0093] In some optional embodiments, in the above-mentioned aero-engine combustion chamber components and their connection structure with the compressor, the diffuser 4 is a multi-channel diffuser, with a flow-dividing ring provided between its outer and inner walls, and supported by multiple support plates along the circumference, wherein each support plate has a notch on its rear edge, which is engaged with the front edge of the flow-dividing ring.
