Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of efficient cooling of aero-engine lubricating oil systems, and discloses a device and a method for measuring dynamic stress of a low-pressure turbine rotor blade of an intermediate-supported engine. Background Art

[0002] The temperature load and aerodynamic load of the low-pressure turbine blades of aircraft engines are high, and the working environment is harsh. Blade cracks and fractures occur occasionally during the development and use process. Under the actual working state of the engine, due to the connection rigidity between the working blades and the disk, and the combined effects of centrifugal force, thermal stress and aerodynamic force on the blades, the dynamic frequency (self-vibration frequency) of the blades in the rotating state is different from the static frequency in the non-rotating state. The low-pressure turbine rotor and the high-pressure turbine rotor of the intermediate-supported aircraft engine are supported by bearings. The high-pressure turbine rotor and the low-pressure turbine have different rotation speeds, and the coupling effect further aggravates the load on the low-pressure turbine rotor blades. Therefore, during the engine development and troubleshooting process, it is necessary to measure the dynamic stress of the low-pressure turbine rotor blades to verify the design analysis and model calculation results, find out the weak points of the blade structure, improve the design, and improve its life and reliability.

[0003] In the environment of an intermediate-supported aircraft engine, the complexity of the mutual support structure of the high- and low-pressure turbine rotors further increases the difficulty of testing and modification. The transmission line of the dynamic stress measurement signal of the low-pressure turbine rotor of the aircraft engine cannot be directly led out of the engine to the PC for data analysis. A telemetry system is required to transmit the signal to the stator component and then lead the signal out of the engine through the test line. The outlet temperature of the low-pressure turbine of an aircraft engine can reach 950°C, and the radiation effect of the afterburner end further increases its ambient temperature. In order to ensure the safe operation of the telemetry device, the telemetry system needs to be cooled, and the existing telemetry system has poor cooling efficiency. Summary of the invention

[0033] An air bleed assembly, used to introduce cooling air flow into the working chamber;

[0034] The oil guide assembly 13 is used to guide the lubricating oil into the lubricating oil cavity 12 .

[0035] In this embodiment, according to the use environment of the telemetering transceiver, the graphite mounting seat 10 and the graphite sealing assembly 11 are used to isolate the oil-free installation space from the lubricating oil cavity 12, and the air supply device is used as the air source. The cooling airflow can be introduced into the working cavity through the air bleed assembly, which can play the role of isolating the high-temperature airflow outside the end cover 9, thereby reducing the interference of the high-temperature airflow outside the end cover 9 on the data transmission of the telemetering transceiver, and ensuring the accuracy of the transmitted data. The measuring device in the present invention not only ensures that the working conditions of the telemetering system meet the requirements, but also meets the normal operation of the lubricating oil system.
