Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of on-wing cleaning technology for aero-engines, and particularly relates to a method and system for predicting the thickness of water film in aero-engines based on the law of liquid film motion. Background Technology
[0002] During operation, aircraft engines inevitably accumulate scale on the compressor blades, leading to performance degradation and affecting reliability. During cold starts, atomized cleaning fluid is injected into the engine's internal ducts via nozzles to perform on-wing cleaning, effectively removing scale particles from the blade surfaces and restoring engine performance. The atomized droplets impacting the blade surface undergo droplet spreading, splashing, diffusion, and film formation; the thickness of this water film determines the effectiveness of on-wing cleaning. Therefore, understanding and accurately monitoring the changes in blade water film thickness is crucial for accurately predicting on-wing cleaning effectiveness and optimizing cleaning parameters.
[0003] The flow of cleaning fluid inside the compressor is highly complex. Droplets undergo movement and breakup under the influence of airflow, a phenomenon exacerbated by increased airflow pressure. Due to aerodynamic shear forces, droplets deposited on the blade surface form thin films, streams, or discrete droplets. While domestic and international scholars have evaluated the thickness and motion of the water film on the blade surface through simulation and experiments, a relationship between cleaning parameters and water film thickness has not yet been established, and an accurate model for effectively predicting the water film thickness on the blade surface is lacking. Poor on-wing cleaning performance for aero-engines negatively impacts their operational safety. Summary of the Invention

Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention can be practiced in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0060] The innovation of the aero-engine water film thickness prediction method and system based on liquid film motion law provided in this invention is as follows: Based on the liquid film motion law, by considering aerodynamic effects, droplet deposition and growth and gas-liquid interface forces, an aero-engine water film thickness prediction method and system is proposed, which can be used to predict the on-wing cleaning water film thickness of aero-engines, and then adjust the on-wing cleaning process parameters of aero-engines.
[0061] Example 1, such as Figure 1 As shown, the method for predicting the water film thickness of an aero-engine based on the liquid film motion law provided in this embodiment of the invention includes:
[0062] S1. Based on the boundary conditions of no slip on the wall and continuous shear force at the gas-liquid interface, a two-dimensional velocity profile equation for the water film along the blade is established.
[0063] S2. Based on the aerodynamic efficiency and deposition efficiency between the droplets that collide with the air mist and the blade surface, a droplet collection efficiency model is constructed.
[0064] S3, calculate the gas-liquid interface shear force using the interfacial friction coefficient;
[0065] S4. During the wing cleaning process of aero-engines, a volumetric flow rate model of water film on the blade surface is constructed based on the interaction between airflow velocity, impact blade area, and cleaning fluid flow rate and the processes of cleaning fluid droplet deposition, growth, aggregation, and shedding on the blade surface.
[0066] S5. Based on the volumetric flow rate of the water film on the blade surface and the shear force at the gas-liquid interface, the relationship curve between the water film thickness and the water-air ratio and the airflow velocity is obtained. The relationship curve between the water film thickness and the water-air ratio and the airflow velocity is used to predict the water film thickness of the on-wing cleaning of the aero-engine, and then adjust the on-wing cleaning process parameters of the aero-engine.
[0067] During the wing cleaning process of an aero-engine, the compressor blades are exposed to a mist of water vapor. Droplets enter the compressor under the influence of aerodynamic forces; some droplets impact and spread on the blade surface, forming a continuous water film, while the remaining droplets follow the airflow into the next stage blade. For example... Figure 2 As shown. The water film moves under the shear force of the airflow, as... Figure 3 As shown.
[0068] In step S1 of this embodiment of the invention, the two-dimensional velocity profile equation of the water film along the blade is established as follows:
[0069] The two-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations for a water film can be written as:
[0070] (1)
[0071] (2)
[0072] In the formula, This is the density of water, expressed in kg / m³. 3 ; The tangential velocity distribution of the water film is expressed in m / s. The velocity distribution of the water film along the normal direction is expressed in m / s. This refers to the pressure inside the water film, measured in Pa. The viscosity of water, in units of The components of gravitational acceleration in the tangential and normal directions are: and The unit is m / s 2 .
[0073] The mass balance equation for a two-dimensional steady-state incompressible flow in a water film is:
[0074] (3)
[0075] Water film thickness The size is on the micrometer scale, much smaller than the blade length. The water film moves along the tangential direction of the blade, and its normal velocity is negligible. Therefore, the normal velocity of the water film can be ignored in this invention. According to the law of conservation of mass, it can be derived that... .
[0076] Based on the above assumptions, the equation of motion for the water film can be simplified to:
[0077] (4)
[0078] (5)
[0079] Assuming that surface tension does not play a major role in water film flow, in this case, the gas-liquid interface shear force ( , The shear stress on the water film plays a dominant role. The shear stress within the water film is balanced by the shear force exerted by the airflow. The shear stress within the water film can be expressed as:
[0080] (6)
[0081] Based on the boundary conditions of no slippage on the wall and continuous shear force at the gas-liquid interface, this invention substitutes the above equation into equation (4) and integrates to obtain the velocity distribution within the water film as follows:
[0082]
[0083] In step S2 of this embodiment of the invention, constructing the droplet collection efficiency model includes:
[0084] This invention innovatively proposes that droplet collection efficiency can be expressed as:
[0085] (8)
[0086] In the formula, For droplet collection efficiency model, For aerodynamic efficiency. For deposition efficiency.
[0087] Aerodynamic efficiency represents the fraction of droplets in an air-water mist flow that may collide with the blade surface; it depends on the blade pressure loss coefficient and drag coefficient. This invention innovatively proposes that aerodynamic efficiency be given by the following formula:
[0088] (9)
[0089] In the formula, This is the leaf shading coefficient. This is the blade pressure loss coefficient. This is the drag coefficient; , The area of the leaf shadow. The total area of the blade cascade passage; when the inlet Mach number of the blade cascade is less than 0.3, the blade pressure loss coefficient. Drag coefficient , The inlet airflow angle of the blade. The average airflow angle of the blades;
[0090] In an air-to-water mist stream, droplets are driven by airflow. When the air encounters the blades, it is deflected, but the droplets, due to inertia, will deposit onto the blade surface. The deposition efficiency is a function of Stokes' law, given by the following equation:
[0091] (10)
[0092] (11)
[0093] In the formula, For Stokes numbers, The density of water, Where is the droplet diameter, For airflow velocity, air viscosity, The characteristic width of the impact blade surface. For deposition efficiency.
[0094] In step S3 of this embodiment of the invention, the calculation of the gas-liquid interface shear force is specifically as follows:
[0095] Ignoring the velocity of gas-liquid interface fluctuations, the gas-liquid interface shear force can be represented by the interfacial friction coefficient:
[0096] (12)
[0097] In the formula, Indicates the interface shearing factor. Indicates air density, The coefficient of interfacial friction, air viscosity;
[0098] This invention assumes that the interfacial shear factor is equal to the wall friction coefficient of the turbulent boundary layer. Then its calculation formula is:
[0099]
[0100] In the formula, For interface shearing factor, The friction coefficient of the turbulent boundary layer wall. The airflow Reynolds number; , For airflow velocity, For characteristic length, Equal to the height of the cascade test section, The viscosity is the viscosity of air motion.
[0101] In step S4 of this embodiment of the invention, constructing the volumetric flow rate model of the water film on the blade surface includes:
[0102] During the wing cleaning process of aero-engines, cleaning droplets deposit, grow, converge, and detach on the blade surface. These processes are related to airflow velocity, impact blade area, and cleaning fluid flow rate. Therefore, based on the interaction mechanism between droplets and the blade surface, this invention innovatively proposes a blade surface water film volumetric flow rate model, which can be expressed as:
[0103] (14)
[0104] In the formula, This refers to the volumetric flow rate of the water film on the blade surface. For droplet collection efficiency, For airflow velocity, air density, For water-to-air ratio, This represents the area of the leaf shadow.
[0105] In step S5 of this embodiment of the invention, during the stage when the air-water mist flow is fully developed on the wing of the aero-engine, the change in air pressure along the tangential direction is negligible and can be considered as... Integrating the water film velocity along the normal direction yields the formula for calculating the water film volumetric flow rate:
[0106] (15)
[0107] For water film flowing in a horizontal two-dimensional cross section, the gravitational component If the value is zero, simplifying equation (15) yields the water film thickness model:
[0108] (16)
[0109] In the formula, This refers to the volumetric flow rate of the water film on the blade surface. For water film thickness, The water film is distributed along the tangential velocity. Represents the direction of the normal. The viscosity of the water film. The density of water, This is the tangential component of gravitational acceleration. This refers to the shear force at the gas-liquid interface.
[0110] In step S5 of this embodiment of the invention, the relationship curve between the water film thickness and the water-to-air ratio and the airflow velocity is obtained based on the volumetric flow rate of the water film on the blade surface and the shear force at the gas-liquid interface:
[0111] (17)
[0112] In the formula, For droplet collection efficiency, air density, For water-to-air ratio, The characteristic width of the impact blade surface. The airflow Reynolds number, This refers to the airflow velocity.
[0113] The water film thickness depends on air velocity, gas-liquid ratio, blade shading coefficient, and droplet collection efficiency based on blade profile and Stokes number. For a given compressor blade profile, the blade shading coefficient and droplet collection efficiency based on blade profile and Stokes number are constant; therefore, the water film thickness during wing cleaning is only related to air velocity and gas-liquid ratio. The relationship curve between water film thickness and water-air ratio and airflow velocity can be used to predict the water film thickness during wing cleaning of aero-engines, thereby adjusting the wing cleaning process parameters.
[0114] As demonstrated by the above embodiments, this invention adjusts the on-wing cleaning effect of aero-engines by using the relationship curve between water film thickness and water-air ratio and airflow velocity. For each aircraft, a 1°C increase in EGTM (Enhanced Geological Scale) during on-wing cleaning is expected to save over 10 tons of fuel, resulting in fuel cost savings of 45,000 yuan. Air China's fleet size has reached 902 aircraft; through on-wing cleaning, a 1°C increase in EGTM can save the fleet over 9,000 tons of fuel, resulting in fuel cost savings of 40.59 million yuan. This invention provides a predictive water film thickness model that can effectively predict the relationship between water-air ratio, airflow velocity, and water film thickness, providing a theoretical basis for adjusting on-wing cleaning process parameters for aero-engines.
