[0069] like Figure 3As shown, the primary condenser 8 includes a condenser support skirt 88, a condenser body arranged on the condenser support skirt 88, a condenser upper water inlet pipe 85 arranged on the condenser body, a condenser lower water inlet pipe 84, a condenser gas inlet 82, a gas distributor 89 and an atmospheric condensate pipeline 81; one end of the condenser upper water inlet pipe 85 and one end of the condenser lower water inlet pipe 84 are respectively arranged inside the condenser support skirt 88, the other end of the condenser upper water inlet pipe 85 and the other end of the condenser lower water inlet pipe 84 are located outside the upper end of the condenser body and connected to the cooling water delivery unit 19 through a flow orifice 86, and the condenser upper water inlet pipe 85 and the condenser lower water inlet pipe 84 are both provided with a spray head 87 with an opening facing downward; the condenser gas outlet 83 is arranged at the upper end of the condenser body and connected to the secondary vacuum jet pump 4; the condenser The gas inlet 82 is arranged on the side wall of the lower end of the condenser body and connected to the first-stage vacuum jet pump 3; one end of the atmospheric condensate pipeline 81 is arranged at the lower end of the condenser body and located inside the condenser support skirt 88, and the other end is located outside the condenser support skirt 88, which is used to connect with the external cooling water pool to form a water seal and thus maintain the vacuum degree inside; the gas distributor 89 is arranged inside the condenser support skirt 88 and located above the condenser gas inlet 82, which is used to achieve the flow diversion and uniform distribution of the gas; the structure of the secondary condenser 9 is the same as that of the first-stage condenser 8, and the condenser gas inlet 82 of the secondary condenser 9 is connected to the secondary vacuum jet pump 4, and two condenser gas outlets 83 are arranged on the secondary condenser 9, and the two condenser gas outlets 83 are respectively connected to the third-stage vacuum jet pump 5 and the third-stage variable pump 6. Among them, the third-stage vacuum jet pump 5 and the third-stage variable pump 6 are both led out from the gas outlet above the secondary condenser 9, which is a parallel mode. The primary condenser 8 and the secondary condenser 9 are mainly used to cool the mixed gas at the outlet of the jet pump to reduce the load of the subsequent vacuum jet pump, and they need to be supplied with cooling water by the cooling water delivery unit 19. The direction of the incoming gas flowing through the condenser (primary condenser 8 and secondary condenser 9) is bottom-in and top-out. Water is supplied to the upper and lower spray heads 87 inside the condenser, and the gas is sprayed out through the spray heads 87 to condense the gas.

[0070] like Figure 4As shown, the steam delivery unit 18 mainly delivers motive steam for vacuum jet pumps at various levels, including a steam main pipeline 181, a heat accumulator 182, a steam distributor 183 and a plurality of steam delivery pipelines 184 connected in sequence along the flow direction of motive steam; the inlet of the steam main pipeline 181 is connected to an external motive steam supply device; the outlet of the steam delivery pipeline 184 is connected to one end of the steam introduction pipe 34 of the vacuum jet pumps at various levels. The diameter of the steam main pipeline 181 is DN700, the heat accumulator 182 is a single-layer cylinder structure, which is used to collect the generated steam, and is provided with an inlet and an outlet; the steam distributor 183 is a single-layer cylinder structure, which is provided with an inlet and five outlets (which can be adjusted according to the number of vacuum jet pumps at various levels), the inlet is connected to the outlet of the heat accumulator 182, and the outlet is connected to the steam inlet pipeline of the steam introduction pipe on the vacuum jet pumps at various levels. The overall design pressure of the steam delivery unit 18 is 2.5 MPa, and it is mainly used to deliver the motive steam generated by the external motive steam supply equipment (the absolute pressure of the motive steam used in the present invention is 1.3 MPa, and the steam temperature is 185°C), wherein the diameter of the steam inlet pipe 34 of each stage of the vacuum jet pump is consistent with the inlet diameter of the steam nozzle 33 of each stage of the vacuum jet pump.

[0071] like Figure 5As shown, the cooling water delivery unit 19 mainly delivers cooling water to each stage of condensers, including a cooling water collecting pipe 191, a cooling water main supply pipe 192, a cooling water distributor 194, and an electromagnetic flowmeter 193 which are connected in sequence along the cooling water flow direction; the electromagnetic flowmeter 193 is arranged on the cooling water main supply pipe 192 and is electrically connected to the engine control console; the inlet of the cooling water collecting pipe 191 is used to be connected to an external cooling water source; the inlet of the cooling water distributor 194 is connected to the cooling water main supply pipe 192 through the first inlet valve 171, the second inlet valve 172, the third inlet valve 173 and the fourth inlet valve 174, and the outlet of the cooling water distributor 194 is respectively connected to the condenser upper inlet pipe 85 and the condenser lower inlet pipe 84 of the first-stage condenser 8, and the condenser upper inlet pipe 85 and the condenser lower inlet pipe 84 of the second-stage condenser 9. The diameter of the cooling water collecting pipe 191 is DN2000, the diameter of the cooling water main supply pipe 192 is DN1000, and the cooling water distributor 194 is a single-layer cylindrical structure with four inlets and four outlets (adjustable according to the number of condensers). The overall design pressure of the cooling water delivery unit 19 is 1.6MPa, which is mainly used to deliver cooling water from an external cooling water source, and an electromagnetic flowmeter 193 is set at the inlet. The first water inlet valve 171, the second water inlet valve 172, the third water inlet valve 173 and the fourth water inlet valve 174 are all butterfly valves, which are electrically connected to the engine control console and electrically controlled. They are mainly used to cut off and supply cooling water. The cooling water supply valve group 17 is equipped with 4 electric butterfly valves, of which 1 is DN200 and 3 are DN600. The cooling water enters the cooling water distributor 194 through the cooling water supply valve group 17. The outlet of the cooling water distributor 194 is connected to the upper and lower water inlets of the condenser. The water inlet is designed with a flow orifice 86 to ensure the water inlet ratio of the condenser. The system of the present invention adopts a multi-way parallel water supply method to effectively reduce the impact of water hammer. At the same time, it adopts a redundant backup design to effectively reduce the risk of single point failure and improve the stability and reliability of the system water supply.

[0072] The variable-stage steam jet pump system of the present invention can realize high-altitude simulated ignition tests of engines with different thrusts and different altitudes while keeping the total amount of energy medium unchanged; a plurality of variable-stage steam jet pump systems are arranged, and the switching between the three-stage working mode and the four-stage working mode can be completed through the online switching of the first vacuum isolation valve 10, the second vacuum isolation valve 11, the third vacuum isolation valve 12 and the first steam isolation valve 13, the second steam isolation valve 14, the third steam isolation valve 15, and the fourth steam isolation valve 16, so as to achieve different suction flow and vacuum degree requirements, thereby achieving the purpose of assessment.

[0073] Each level of vacuum jet pump is the core component of the variable-level steam jet pump system, which is mainly used to accelerate the power steam to a supersonic state through the nozzle 33 to complete the injection of the engine gas. The first-stage condenser 8 and the second-stage condenser 9 mainly cool the condensable part of the incoming mixed gas to reduce the suction load of the rear-stage vacuum jet pump. The direction of the incoming gas flowing through the condenser is from bottom to top. The atmospheric condensate pipeline 81 is connected to the external cooling water pool below, which mainly plays the role of vacuum water seal. When the first-stage condenser 8 and the second-stage condenser 9 are vacuum inside, the water in the cooling water pool enters the atmospheric condensate pipeline 81 under the action of atmospheric pressure to form a water seal; the cooling water delivery unit 19 supplies water to the upper and lower spray heads 87 inside the condenser, and the gas is sprayed out through the spray head 87 to condense the gas. The gas distributor 89 is mainly used to achieve the diversion and uniform distribution of the gas. The flow orifice plate 86 is used to adjust and distribute the cooling water flow.

[0074] The cooling water flow rate calculation formula of the flow orifice plate 86 is as follows:

[0075]

[0076] Where: Q is the cooling water flow rate, in kg / s; C is the cooling water flow coefficient, dimensionless; A is the cross-sectional area of ​​the required flow orifice 86, in mm 2 ; ρ is cooling water density, unit is kg / m 3 ; ΔP is cooling water, unit is MPa.

[0077] The first-stage condenser 8 and the second-stage condenser 9 are both in the form of a water supply valve group with a redundant backup design. The water supply pressure is 0.7MPa. A cooling water distributor 194 is set upstream of the condenser to ensure the supply and distribution of cooling water. The cooling water supply valve group 17 is equipped with a total of 4 valves, of which the first water inlet valve 171 and the second water inlet valve 172 are symmetrically arranged to enter the cooling water distributor 194 to reduce the impact of water hammer during the opening of the butterfly valve. The upper and lower water inlets of the condenser are provided with a flow regulating orifice 86 to ensure the upper and lower cooling water flow distribution ratio of the condenser; in the present invention, the aperture of the upper spray head 87 of the first-stage condenser 8 is consistent with the aperture of the lower spray head 87 of the first-stage condenser 8, both of which are Φ210mm, and the aperture of the upper spray head 87 of the second-stage condenser 9 is consistent with the aperture of the upper spray head 87 of the second-stage condenser 9, both of which are Φ190mm.

[0078] During use, the first water inlet valve 171, the second water inlet valve 172, the third water inlet valve 173, and the fourth water inlet valve 174 are used as backup. The water supply valve opening process is as follows:

[0079] Open the fourth water inlet valve 174 for 15 seconds to ensure that the fourth water inlet valve 174 is fully opened. The specific time depends on the action time of the fourth water inlet valve 174. At the same time, open the first water inlet valve 171 and the second water inlet valve 172.

[0080] The water supply valve closing process is as follows:

[0081] Close the first water inlet valve 171 and the second water inlet valve 172 at the same time, with an interval of 30 seconds, to ensure that the first water inlet valve 171 and the second water inlet valve 172 are completely closed. The specific time depends on the action time of the first water inlet valve 171 and the second water inlet valve 172, and then close the fourth water inlet valve 174.

[0082] By adopting the valve arrangement and water supply form of the present invention, the influence of water hammer pressure can be reduced at the moment of valve opening and closing, and the risk of single-point failure of the valve can be reduced by adopting a redundant backup design concept, thereby achieving reliable supply of cooling water.

[0083] like Figure 6 As shown, in order to be applicable to high-altitude simulation tests of engines with a wide range of thrust, a variable-stage steam jet pump system can be set to a plurality of parallel types by setting multiple outlets 102 above the gas collecting chamber 1. In this embodiment, four inlets 101 are set on the gas collecting chamber 1, and the diameter of the inlet 101 is DN3000, and six outlets 102 are set, and the diameter of the outlet 102 is DN2000; the four inlets 101 are used to connect with the gas equipment of the external engine; the inlet 101 and the outlet 102 on the gas collecting chamber 1 can be set according to the number of jet pump groups, and the six outlets 102 are divided into three groups, namely group A, group B and group C, wherein the variable-stage steam jet pump system can be specifically set according to actual conditions, and is used to connect three groups of steam jet pump units; one of the outlets 102 of each group of outlets is connected to the vacuum suction pipe 2 of the corresponding steam jet pump unit, and the other outlet 102 is connected to the corresponding four-stage vacuum jet pump 7.

[0084] When there are three sets of variable-stage steam jet pump units, the first vacuum isolation valves 10 are set to 6 in total, and every two first vacuum isolation valves 10 form a group, which are divided into three groups in total. The second vacuum isolation valves 11 are also set to 6 in total, and every two form a group. The third vacuum isolation valves 12 are set to 3 in total, and each one forms a group. Figure 6 It can be seen that the ultimate vacuum degree of a single set of three variable-stage steam jet pump units in the three-stage working mode can reach 200-300Pa, and the system vacuum degree can be below 1000Pa when the engine with a thrust of 30kN or less is ignited. The three sets can achieve the system vacuum degree of 1000Pa when the engine with a thrust of 90kN or less is ignited. By opening the number of first vacuum isolation valves 10, a combination of multiple modes can be performed, thereby effectively completing the ignition test of engines with different thrust levels, thereby improving energy efficiency.

[0085] Similarly, by Figure 6It can be seen that when a single set of steam jet pumps is in the four-level working mode, the system's ultimate vacuum can reach below 100Pa. When the engine is ignited, the system's vacuum is below 600Pa, which can achieve ignition of engines with a thrust of 10kN or less. Three sets can achieve ignition of engines with a thrust of 30kN or less. By opening the number of second vacuum isolation valves 11, a combination of multiple modes can be performed, thereby effectively completing a wide range of engine ignition tests with different thrust levels, while providing different vacuum levels. A wide range of thrust level engine ignition conditions are achieved.

[0086] At the same time, the present invention also provides a control method for the above variable-stage steam jet pump system, comprising the following steps:

[0087] When the engine ignition test starts, the third-level working mode is controlled to be turned on during the engine ignition gap to complete the engine gas injection; or, the third-level working mode is controlled to be turned on during the engine ignition gap, and the third-level working mode is switched to the fourth-level working mode to complete the engine gas injection;

[0088] To open the three-level working mode:

[0089] The first vacuum isolation valve 10, the third vacuum isolation valve 12, the first steam isolation valve 13, the steam delivery unit 18 and the cooling water delivery unit 19 are controlled to be opened, and the second vacuum isolation valve 11 and the third steam isolation valve 15 are closed; at this time, the gas flows from the gas collecting chamber 1 to the vacuum suction pipeline 2, the first vacuum jet pump 3, the first condenser 8, the second vacuum jet pump 4, the second condenser 9, the third vacuum jet pump 5 and the third variable pump 6; at the same time, the power steam is delivered to the first vacuum jet pump 3, the second vacuum jet pump 4, the third vacuum jet pump 5 and the third variable pump 6 respectively through the steam delivery unit 18; the cooling water is delivered to the first condenser 8 and the second condenser 9 through the cooling water delivery unit 19 to cool the condensable part of the mixed gas of the gas and steam; the first vacuum jet pump 3, the second vacuum jet pump 4, the third vacuum jet pump 5 and the third variable pump 6 accelerate the power steam to a supersonic state, and draw the cooled steam to complete the injection of the engine gas.

[0090] In the three-stage pump working mode, the three-stage variable pump 6 is in working state, and the ultimate vacuum degree of the variable stage steam jet pump system can reach 200-300Pa. When the engine ignition can be maintained, the vacuum degree of the variable stage steam jet pump system is below 1000Pa. A single set of variable stage steam jet pump system can realize the ignition of engines with thrust of 30kN and below.

[0091] The specific steps to switch the third-level working mode to the fourth-level working mode are as follows:

[0092] The second vacuum isolation valve 11 and the third steam isolation valve 15 are controlled to be opened, and the first vacuum isolation valve 10, the third steam isolation valve 12 and the first steam isolation valve 13 are closed; at this time, the gas flows from the gas collecting chamber to the fourth-stage vacuum jet pump 7, the first-stage vacuum jet pump 3, the first-stage condenser 8, the second-stage vacuum jet pump 4, the second-stage condenser 9, and the third-stage vacuum jet pump 5; at the same time, the power steam is respectively transported to the first-stage vacuum jet pump 3, the second-stage vacuum jet pump 4, the third-stage vacuum jet pump 5 and the fourth-stage vacuum jet pump 7 through the steam delivery unit 18; the cooling water is transported to the first-stage condenser 8 and the second-stage condenser 9 through the cooling water delivery unit 19 to cool the condensable part of the mixed gas of the gas and steam; the first-stage vacuum jet pump 3, the second-stage vacuum jet pump 4, the third-stage vacuum jet pump 5 and the fourth-stage vacuum jet pump 7 accelerate the power steam to a supersonic state, and draw the cooled steam to complete the injection of the engine gas.

[0093] In the four-stage pump working mode, the three-stage variable pump 6 is in a stopped state, and the ultimate vacuum degree of the variable-stage steam jet pump system can reach below 100Pa. When the engine ignition can be maintained, the vacuum degree of the variable-stage steam jet pump system is below 700Pa. A single set of steam jet pump system can achieve engine ignition of 10kN thrust and below.

[0094] The switching of the gas channel is controlled by the engine console to achieve remote online switching of the first vacuum isolation valve 10, the second vacuum isolation valve 11, the third vacuum isolation valve 12, the first steam isolation valve 13, and the third steam isolation valve 15, and the opening or closing time is less than 10s. The switching of the power steam is completed by the engine console to control the first steam isolation valve 13, the second steam isolation valve 14, the third steam isolation valve 15, and the fourth steam isolation valve 16, and the opening or closing time is less than 10s. The second steam isolation valve 14 is located upstream of the first steam isolation valve 13, and the fourth steam isolation valve 16 is located upstream of the third steam isolation valve 15, and is mainly used for cutting off or connecting the steam channel. The second steam isolation valve 14 and the fourth steam isolation valve 16 can remain in a normally open state during system use, which is convenient for online real-time switching of system modes.

[0095] To ensure smooth switching of the gas channel and the power steam channel during online switching, it should be performed during the engine ignition interval (i.e., when the engine is not working), first switch the gas channel, and then switch the power steam channel. In this embodiment, the sequence is as follows: first switch the gas channel online, open the second vacuum isolation valve 11, and close the first vacuum isolation valve 10 and the third vacuum isolation valve 12 at the same time; then switch the power steam channel, open the third steam isolation valve 15, and close the first steam isolation valve 13. The two valve action instructions should be issued by the engine control console at the same time to avoid reducing the fluctuation of the upstream power steam pressure.
