Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of industrial axial flow compressors, and in particular to a method, equipment and medium for analyzing the blockage and flutter of a last-stage stator blade of an industrial axial flow compressor. Background Art
[0002] Industrial axial flow compressors are power machinery widely used in blast furnace ironmaking, oil refining, basic chemical industry, biological fermentation, large-scale air separation, energy storage, aviation wind tunnels and other fields. They are one of the core equipment of many large-scale process industrial production enterprises. Industrial axial flow compressors are widely used due to their high efficiency and wide range of operating conditions, bringing considerable economic and social benefits to many enterprises.
[0003] Compared with stall flutter, a common flutter phenomenon in aviation axial compressors, blocking flutter is a more common flutter phenomenon in industrial axial compressors during operation. Blocking flutter refers to a type of flutter of the last-stage stator blades whose flutter boundary is close to the blocking boundary of the axial compressor. Blocking flutter can cover a considerable range of stator blade angles. When crossing the blocking flutter boundary, there is no aerodynamic phenomenon of sudden drop in pressure ratio or efficiency. When blocking flutter occurs, negative aerodynamic damping LogDec appears. aero The structural vibration is unstable, usually accompanied by vibration states such as sudden increase in vibration stress and amplitude of the last-stage stationary blades. There is one or more strong shock waves in the blade row channel where blocked flutter occurs, which mostly occur in the first-order mode dominated by bending vibration type.
[0004] When an industrial axial compressor operates under low exhaust pressure conditions, its last-stage stator blades are in a blocked state with a negative angle of attack or even a high negative angle of attack. At this time, there is a risk of blocking flutter in the last-stage stator blades. In particular, the industrial axial compressor for blast furnace blasting, which operates differently from conventional industrial axial compressors, usually operates under extremely low exhaust pressure conditions with the outlet valve fully open when the blast furnace is temporarily shut down to save energy. As a result, the last-stage stator blades often experience sudden large-amplitude violent vibrations due to entering the blocking flutter condition, causing the last-stage stator blades to fail and break in a short period of time, which has a serious impact on the continuous operation and production of the steel industry and causes huge economic losses. At present, in industrial practice, anti-blocking control devices are mainly set to prevent operators from entering the blocking area of the last-stage stator blades during the start-up, operation and process switching of the axial compressor. However, the anti-blocking control device increases the initial hardware investment cost of the anti-blocking valve and the like on the one hand, and narrows the operating pressure range of the axial compressor on the other hand. The increase in exhaust pressure during shutdown leads to increased energy consumption, which has an adverse effect on the economy of operating energy consumption.
[0005] At present, empirical methods such as reduced frequency are commonly used to predict flutter of aviation axial compressors. However, this type of empirical method is mainly aimed at stall flutter and is powerless to predict choking flutter. The design process of industrial axial compressors lacks qualitative and quantitative evaluation of choking flutter, and it is impossible to accurately judge the risk of choking flutter at the operating point.
[0006] The invention with patent publication number CN 118153465 A and name “Wing flutter boundary prediction reduced-order model training method, device, equipment and medium” constructs a training set based on the displacement of interpolation points selected on the wing aerodynamic and structural interpolation interface and the aerodynamic load; constructs a load prediction reduced-order model based on a long short-term memory network, and uses the training set to train the load prediction reduced-order model to obtain a trained aerodynamic load prediction reduced-order model; couples the aerodynamic load prediction reduced-order model with finite element software to obtain a flutter boundary prediction reduced-order model, and uses the flutter boundary prediction reduced-order model to predict the structural displacement response under different dynamic pressures, and finally obtains the wing flutter boundary; however, this method only predicts the flutter boundary of aviation wings and cannot be applied to the prediction of blockage flutter of industrial axial compressors. Summary of the invention
[0007] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the above-mentioned prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a method, device and medium for analyzing the blocking flutter of the last-stage stator blades of an industrial axial compressor. Since the material of the last-stage stator blades of an axial compressor is usually high-strength alloy steel, its density is relatively large, resulting in a weaker degree of fluid-solid coupling, that is, the influence of fluid-solid coupling on the frequency and mode of the vibration of the last-stage stator blade is relatively small, and the difference between the vibration of the last-stage stator blade when blocking flutter occurs and its natural vibration mode and frequency can be ignored. The present invention quickly solves the structural dynamics control equations and the flow control equations by the method of fluid-solid decoupling, and obtains the aerodynamic damping LogDec by unsteady CFD (computational fluid dynamics) analysis based on the harmonic balance method. aero , and finally according to the aerodynamic damping LogDec aero The positive and negative signs and values of are used to judge the risk of blockage flutter of the last-stage stator blades; the present invention has the characteristics of high risk prediction accuracy and simplicity.

[0044] The present invention mainly analyzes industrial axial compressors with the risk of blocking and flutter, generally blast furnace axial compressors. In order to fully verify the effectiveness of the model calibration method, the following is combined with Figures 1 to 7 The present invention is described in further detail.
[0045] Example 1 A flutter stability analysis is performed by taking an industrial axial flow compressor in which the last stage stator blade actually fails and breaks as an example. The specific analysis and calculation steps are as follows:
[0046] Step 1: First, select the deep blocking condition with low outlet exhaust pressure. Use ANSYS CFX software to perform single-channel steady-state CFD calculation for the selected condition. The inlet boundary conditions are inlet total pressure of 101.325 kPa, inlet total temperature of 288.15 K, and the outlet static pressure is given as 150 kPa. The wall boundary is processed by sliding wall and wall function, and the circumferential geometric boundary adopts periodic boundary conditions. Therefore, a single-channel calculation domain can be used. The mixing surface method is used to transmit information between the transfer-static interface model (i.e., different blade rows); the turbulence model adopts the SA turbulence model; Figure 3 The cloud diagram of the flow field relative to the Mach number at three typical blade heights (10%, 50% and 90% blade height) under deep blockage conditions is shown, and it can be clearly seen that there is a strong shock wave in the last stage stator channel.
[0047] Step 2: ANSYS Mechanical software is used to calculate the first three natural frequencies and vibration modes of the last-stage stator blades, and the blocking flutter analysis is performed on the first three modes of the last-stage stator blades. In order to ensure the calculation accuracy and period, the overall model of the last-stage stator blades and tenons in step 2 adopts structured hexahedral units, and the hexahedral unit material is X3CrNiMo13-4. The overall model of the last-stage stator blades and tenons adopts a cyclic symmetric model, and a contact constraint is set between the tenon and the root groove of the last-stage stator blade. The stress stiffening and rotation softening effects are considered during the analysis.
[0048] Step 3: After obtaining the first three modes of the last-stage stator blade described in step 2, the vibration mode is interpolated from the finite element mesh (i.e., the structural domain mesh) to the fluid domain mesh required for steady-state CFD calculation. The vibration mode on the CFD mesh after interpolation is consistent with the vibration mode data of the finite element mesh before interpolation. Figure 4 The comparison of the axial, circumferential and radial components of the first three modal vibration shapes of the last stage stator blade before and after interpolation is shown.
[0049] Step 4: Perform a single-channel unsteady CFD analysis to calculate the aerodynamic damping LogDec aeroSpecifically, the harmonic balance method is used in the single-channel unsteady CFD analysis, and the phase lag boundary conditions should be used on the upper and lower cycle boundaries; the flutter stability of the last-stage static blade often varies due to the change of the inter-blade phase angle. When the frequency domain method is used for single-channel unsteady CFD analysis, it is often necessary to consider the situation under different inter-blade phase angles. In this embodiment, the trigonometric function interpolation method is used for flutter evaluation. In order to reduce the calculation time, the aerodynamic damping LogDec is analyzed and calculated for 9 inter-blade phase angles. aero .
[0050] Since the mechanical damping of the last stage stator structure is much smaller than the aerodynamic damping LogDec aero , so the mechanical damping is ignored and only the aerodynamic damping LogDec is considered aero When the logarithmic decay rate is negative, it indicates that the aerodynamic damping of the last stage stator blade LogDec aero When the logarithmic decay rate is positive, it indicates that the aerodynamic damping of the last stage stator blades is too high. aero If it is positive, there is no risk of blocking flutter. The higher the positive value, the better the stability of the last stage stator blade blocking flutter.
[0051] Figure 5 The aerodynamic damping curves obtained by calculating the first three modes are shown. When the last-stage stator blade vibrates in the first-order mode (M1), the aerodynamic damping LogDec of the last-stage stator blade at 30 inter-blade phase angles is aero If it is negative, there is a greater risk of flutter. Taking the inter-blade phase angle of -120° as an example, the flow field is analyzed. The aerodynamic damping LogDec under this inter-blade phase angle is aero is -1.42%, Figure 6 The accumulated work distribution on the surface of the last-stage stator blade is shown. The accumulated work is the work done by the fluid on the last-stage stator blade. If the accumulated work is negative, it means that there is a risk of blockage and flutter of the last-stage stator blade. By observing the accumulated work distribution, it can be seen that the accumulated work in most areas of the last-stage stator blade surface is negative, especially near the blade tip and the trailing edge, where the accumulated work increases significantly. Figure 7 The relative Mach number distribution at 90% blade height is shown. According to the relative Mach number distribution diagram of the flow field (i.e., the relative Mach number cloud diagram), it can be seen that there is a strong shock wave in the last-stage stator channel.
[0052] In summary, it can be considered that the last-stage stator has a high risk of first-order mode blocking flutter; secondly, the aerodynamic damping LogDec calculated for the second-order mode (M2) and the third-order mode (M3) is aero The minimum value of is greater than 0, indicating that there is no risk of blocking flutter in the second and third order modes of the stator blades.
