Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of high-efficiency composite cooling technology, and in particular to a longitudinal corrugated heat shield capable of guiding and impact cooling, for use in the afterburner chamber of an aero-engine or the combustion chamber of a ramjet engine. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous improvement of the performance of aero-engines and ramjet engines, the average outlet temperature of afterburners / ramjet combustors can reach 1900~2000K, and the outlet temperature of high-performance afterburners / ramjet combustors can even reach 2200K, far exceeding the allowable temperature of current mainstream high-temperature resistant materials. In addition, in order to achieve the purpose of high temperature rise, the inlet temperature of afterburners / ramjet combustors also rises continuously, and more air is used for combustion, which leads to the continuous rise in the temperature of both the combustion gas and the cooling gas in the combustion chamber. The high-temperature components in the afterburner / ramjet combustor face a more severe working environment, thus posing a huge challenge to the cooling of high-temperature components such as heat shields.

[0003] Longitudinal corrugated heat shields, as the mainstream high-temperature components in afterburner / ramjet combustion chambers, are widely used in many engines. However, traditional longitudinal corrugated heat shields often encounter problems such as uneven temperature distribution between peaks and troughs, resulting in large temperature gradients. Specifically, in the trough areas of the heat shield, the cooling gas remains there after exiting the film cooling vents, resulting in lower wall temperatures and better cooling effect. However, on the hot side of the heat shield and in the peak areas, the direct impact of high-temperature combustion gases inhibits the outflow of cooling gas, thus affecting the cooling of the heat shield in these areas, leading to poor high-temperature resistance and short service life. Therefore, adopting efficient composite cooling structures to continuously improve the overall cooling efficiency of the heat shield wall is an important development direction. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to address the deficiencies mentioned in the background art by providing a longitudinal corrugated heat shield that can perform airflow guidance and impact cooling. Under the same inlet conditions, compared with the traditional longitudinal corrugated heat shield, it can effectively avoid the problem of direct scouring of the hot side windward surface and the crest area by high-temperature gas and the suppression of cooling gas outflow, thereby improving the cooling efficiency of the hot side windward surface and the crest area.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A longitudinally corrugated heat insulation screen capable of guiding and impact cooling includes N heat insulation units, where N is a natural number greater than or equal to 1.

[0007] The insulation unit shown includes a first combined plate, a second combined plate, and a connecting plate;

[0008] The first and second combined plates have the same structure and are wavy. They both include a heat insulation plate and a flow guide plate. The heat insulation plate and the flow guide plate have cross-sections of circular arcs with radii R1 and R2, respectively, where R2 is greater than R1. One end of the heat insulation plate and one end of the flow guide plate are smoothly connected, and the openings of the heat insulation plate and the flow guide plate are opposite.

[0009] The heat insulation plates of the first and second combined plates have opposite openings and their bottom surfaces are on the same plane. The centers of the cross-sections of the heat insulation plates of the first and second combined plates are the same point, and the centers of the cross-sections of the heat insulation plates of the first and second combined plates are the same point, so that the first and second combined plates are partially stacked to form a flow channel.

[0010] The connecting plate is a rectangular plate, which is disposed in the flow channel at the stacking of the first combined plate and the second combined plate. One end is fixedly connected to the first combined plate, and the other end is fixedly connected to the second combined plate.

[0011] The first and second combined plates are provided with a number of through holes for cooling. The through holes on the side of the first and second combined plates near the heat source at the stacking point form an impinging jet to enhance the convective heat transfer on the other side.

[0012] The connecting plate is uniformly provided with a plurality of flow guide holes;

[0013] The N heat insulation units are smoothly connected in sequence, and the heat insulation plate of the second combination plate of the heat insulation unit is smoothly connected to the heat insulation plate of the first combination plate of the adjacent heat insulation unit, and their bottom surfaces are on the same plane.

[0014] As a further optimization of the longitudinal corrugated heat insulation screen capable of guiding and impact cooling according to the present invention, the heat insulation plate and the guide plate have the same thickness, ranging from 0.5 to 2 mm.

[0015] As a further optimization of the longitudinal corrugated heat insulation screen capable of guiding and impact cooling according to the present invention, the diameter of the through holes on the first and second combined plates ranges from 0.5 to 3 mm.

[0016] The present invention also discloses another longitudinal corrugated heat insulation screen capable of guiding and impact cooling, comprising N heat insulation units, where N is a natural number greater than or equal to 1;

[0017] The insulation unit shown includes a first combined ring, a second combined ring, and a connecting ring;

[0018] The first combined ring includes a first heat insulation ring and a first flow guiding ring. The cross-sectional profile of the first heat insulation ring along its axis is two symmetrical arcs with opposite openings and a radius of R1. The cross-sectional profile of the first flow guiding ring along its axis is two symmetrical arcs with opposite openings and a radius of R2. R2 is greater than R1. One end of the first heat insulation ring and one end of the first flow guiding ring are smoothly connected, so that the first heat insulation ring and the first flow guiding ring are coaxial.

[0019] The second combined ring includes a second heat insulation ring and a second flow guide ring. The cross-sectional profile of the second heat insulation ring along its axis is two symmetrical arcs with opposite openings and a radius of R1. The cross-sectional profile of the second flow guide ring along its axis is two symmetrical arcs with opposite openings and a radius of R2. R2 is greater than R1. One end of the second heat insulation ring and one end of the second flow guide ring are smoothly connected, so that the second heat insulation ring and the second flow guide ring are coaxial.

[0020] The first combined ring and the second heat insulation ring are coaxial, and the first flow guide ring extends into the second flow guide ring, so that the first combined ring and the second combined ring are partially stacked to form an annular flow channel;

[0021] The connecting ring is disposed in the flow channel at the stacking of the first combined ring and the second combined ring, with its outer end fixedly connected to the first combined ring and its inner end fixedly connected to the second combined ring.

[0022] The first and second combined rings are provided with a plurality of through holes for cooling, wherein the through holes on the outer side of the stacked portion of the first and second combined rings are used to form an impingement jet to enhance the heat transfer on the inner side.

[0023] The connecting ring is uniformly provided with several flow guide holes;

[0024] The N heat insulation units are smoothly connected in sequence, and the second heat insulation ring of the heat insulation unit and the first heat insulation ring of the adjacent heat insulation unit are smoothly connected and coaxial.

[0025] As a further optimization of this longitudinal corrugated heat shield capable of guiding and impact cooling, the first heat insulation ring, the first flow guiding ring, the second heat insulation ring, and the second flow guiding ring have the same thickness, ranging from 0.5 to 2 mm.

[0026] As a further optimization of the longitudinal corrugated heat shield capable of guiding and impact cooling, the diameter of the through holes on the first and second combined rings ranges from 0.5 to 3 mm.

[0027] Compared with the prior art, the present invention, employing the above technical solution, has the following technical effects:

[0028] 1. By utilizing dynamic pressure intake, a portion of the cooling air is passed through the flow channel at the stacked layer of the heat insulation unit in the heat insulation screen, and then through the guide hole, it flows into the hot-side guide channel and flows downstream along the wall to the wave crest area, effectively avoiding the problem of the cooling air outflow being suppressed due to the direct impact of the gas on the windward side.

[0029] 2. Some of the cooling air forms an impinging jet in the through-holes on the heat source side of the stack, which enhances the convective heat transfer on the other side, reduces the wall temperature of the heat shield on the hot side, and provides thermal protection for the heat shield on the hot side.

[0030] 3. Compared with traditional longitudinal corrugated heat insulation screens, this invention can extend the service life of the heat insulation screen and improve its high-temperature resistance. Attached Figure Description
