Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of gas turbine design, and particularly relates to a design method for a cooling structure of a moving blade with a spherical bulge micro-tube array. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous improvement of gas turbine performance indicators and the continuous expansion of their operating boundaries, the turbine inlet temperature continues to increase, which puts higher requirements on the temperature resistance grade of turbine blade materials and cooling structure design for long-term continuous operation under high load conditions.
[0003] During the operation of existing engines and the development of new engines, there are areas in turbine blades that are difficult to cool, especially the end walls and blade tops with relatively small dimensions and relatively complex flows, which are prone to forming cooling "blind spots" or even "dead spots". The metal temperatures at these locations are close to the heat resistance limit of the blade alloy. Similar phenomena have also been reported by foreign researchers when conducting gas turbine design and testing. The surface temperature distribution of turbine blades obtained by transient liquid crystal measurement and numerical calculation by Siemens and other companies shows that obvious local high-temperature areas appear at the blade body, end wall and blade top. These local high-temperature areas that are difficult to cool can easily cause local ablation of turbine blades, which brings great difficulties to the cooling design of turbine blades. In addition, with the expansion of the engine use environment and the improvement of performance requirements, the turbine inlet temperature continues to increase, further increasing the design difficulty of the turbine blade cooling structure.
[0004] Therefore, when traditional large-scale cooling structures are unable to meet the cooling needs of "blind spots" and "dead spots", innovating and developing efficient cooling structures for turbine blades can further improve the cooling effect without increasing the amount of cold air used, which has important scientific significance and practical value for the development of advanced high-performance gas turbine engines. Summary of the invention

[0055] In an embodiment of the present invention, the ratio of the cooling air usage to the original given cooling air usage is, that is, the ratio of the reduction in the area of the cooling channel inside the turbine blade body; on the basis of the original internal cooling channel of the turbine blade body, a new internal cooling channel of the turbine blade body is obtained by reducing the internal cooling channel, keeping the wall thickness of the blade body unchanged, and the wall thickness of the blade body is offset outward in the new internal cooling channel of the turbine blade body to obtain the blade body shape thickness after adjusting the internal cooling channel, and the difference between the blade body shape thickness after adjusting the internal cooling channel and the thickness before adjustment is the blade body shape thinning amount.
[0056] S107. Based on the reduction ratio of the cooling channel area inside the turbine blade body and the outer thickness of the blade body, the cooling structure of the turbine blade body is reconstructed, and a three-dimensional model of the turbine blade body and cooling channel after the blade shape is adjusted is established using a three-dimensional modeling tool.
[0057] S108. According to the three-dimensional model of the turbine moving blade body after the blade shape is adjusted and the reduction ratio of the cooling channel area inside the moving blade body, adjust the positions of the micro-spherical tubes in the root section and the top section, the diameter of each circular through tube, the center spacing of the through tubes, the number of spherical bulges in each micro-channel along the blade height direction, the spherical bulge spacing, the diameter of each spherical bulge, and the number of micro-tube channels.

[0060] In an embodiment of the present invention, based on the three-dimensional model of the turbine rotor blade body, using the given parameters of the turbine rotor blade body spherical bulge micro-tube array cooling structure, a three-dimensional modeling tool is adopted, and the mixing function is utilized to mix the root section and top section micro-tube array channels, and a circular micro-tube row is constructed on the turbine rotor blade body.

[0064] The turbine blade body spherical bulge micro-tube array cooling can deliver cooling air to any position of the blade body by reducing the diameter of the circular tube of the micro-tube array, thereby achieving precise customized delivery of blade body cooling needs. Combined with the spherical bulge enhanced cooling structure, the high-temperature area of the blade body can be cooled in a targeted manner.
[0065] In another embodiment of the present invention, the turbine moving blade blade body spherical bulge micro-tube array cooling can be parametrically designed with only a small number of parameters, which is conducive to rapid optimization and adjustment to obtain the best cooling solution, thereby realizing the design process of spherical bulge micro-tube array cooling.

[0072] The present invention proposes a method for designing a cooling structure of a turbine moving blade with a spherical bulge micro-tube array, which can multiply the heat exchange area and convection heat transfer coefficient of the cooling channel through a micro-tube array with a smaller diameter (0.1mm to 1mm), thereby achieving super cooling of the blade. Not only can it achieve full coverage of the cooling of the high-pressure turbine moving blade, but it can also fully meet the cooling requirements of the blade. Therefore, it effectively solves the problem of "blind spots" and "dead spots" that are difficult to cool due to the limitations of the spatial structure of traditional air film and large-scale cooling, and can effectively solve the problem of overheating and even ablation of the blade. The cooling air is delivered to any position of the moving blade through the small-scale spherical bulge micro-tube array cooling structure, thereby achieving precise customized delivery of the cooling requirements of the blade, so that the high-temperature area of the blade can be focused on in a targeted manner, meeting the local cooling requirements of the moving blade.
