Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of water conservancy engineering and ship engineering, and in particular to a water jet propulsion test bench for internal flow field testing, instantaneous thrust testing and hydraulic performance testing and a use method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The water jet propulsion device is a new type of propulsion device suitable for high-performance ships. This type of pump device uses the recoil effect of high-speed water flow ejected from the nozzle to drive the hull forward. Compared with the propeller propulsion device, the water jet propulsion pump device has low underwater noise and good concealment during operation. At the same time, this type of pump device has high propulsion efficiency and good anti-cavitation performance. Therefore, this type of pump device has excellent application prospects, which also makes the relevant research on the multi-condition hydraulic characteristics and thrust characteristics of the water jet propulsion pump device have important academic significance and engineering application value.

[0003] At present, the model test method is often used to study the various performances of water jet propulsion pump devices. The existing water jet propulsion pump device experimental device has the following characteristics: a water jet propulsion pump device with a hull is arranged in an open water pool, and the working conditions of different water depths and draft ratios are adjusted by changing the height of the test bench bottom plate. At the same time, the thrust generated by the pump device is measured by means of the slide rails above the hull and the pressure sensor. However, since the test bench has a fixed bottom plate, each time the water depth and draft ratio working conditions are changed, the test bench floor needs to be disassembled, processed and reinstalled. The process is cumbersome, resulting in a long test time; at the same time, due to the open water pool, it is impossible to change the internal pressure of the pump device, and it is impossible to conduct cavitation research. There are complex environmental interferences in the open water intake pool, which makes the tracer particles in the particle image velocimetry (PIV) experiment susceptible to environmental influences, which makes it difficult to accurately capture the flow characteristics of the water body. In addition, although the existing test bench can carry out thrust tests, it is impossible to accurately analyze the correspondence between the nozzle jet and the internal flow field and the thrust, which is difficult to match the current research needs of water jet propulsion devices. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize and upgrade the existing test bench.

[0004] At present, there are experimental devices and test methods related to water jet propulsion. The authorized invention patent CN104215426B proposes to suspend the power unit of the water jet propulsion internal flow field and external characteristic measurement device inside the hull model, collect the axial force, torque and speed data of the pump device through the data acquisition unit, and realize the observation and measurement of the internal flow field of the water jet propulsion through the propeller shell made of transparent organic glass; the authorized invention patent CN107702886B proposes a water jet propulsion ship model inlet flow test method based on PIV measurement; the authorized invention patent CN104332091B proposes a simple experimental device for pump water jet propulsion, which can be used to study the thrust performance of pump water jet propulsion under different free surface characteristics, various water flow speeds (ship speeds) and different ship loads (submerged depths). Although the above technologies all involve the modification of the test model of the water jet propulsion pump device, the functions realized are single, and multiple tests require repeated construction of the test device, which is cumbersome to operate and has high testing costs.

9. A method for using a water jet propulsion test bench for internal flow field testing, instantaneous thrust testing and hydraulic performance testing according to any one of claims 1 to 7, characterized in that: The steps include: Install each device in place, and check to ensure that the connections between the devices are tight and well sealed; When conducting cavitation experiments, close vent valve 1 and vent valve 2, connect vent valve 1 to the vacuum pump, and make the water jet propulsion pump device operate under negative pressure. Change the pressure conditions to reduce the efficiency of the pump device by 1%, and it can be considered that the pump device has entered the cavitation condition. At this time, use a high-speed camera to observe the underwater suction vortex area of ​​the pump body water inlet, the internal area of ​​the pump device, and the nozzle jet under different working conditions, and observe and explore the cavitation situation and cavitation evolution law of the pump device blades under cavitation conditions; release fluorescent particles in a closed water tank, and use the PIV device to carefully track the three-dimensional flow state of the flow field and vortex inside the flow channel of the pump device, the water inlet area, and the wake area; use the vacuum valve again to adjust the pressure in the pump to conduct relevant experiments on the pump device at different cavitation stages; The height of the bottom plate in the closed water tank is adjusted by adjusting the bolts to simulate the operation of the pump device under different water depth and draft ratio conditions; When conducting the thrust test of the pump device, first adjust the position of the water jet propulsion pump device to ensure that the nozzle flange and the sleeve are in just contact, and obtain the friction data of the test bench through multiple friction tests and balance it; turn on the pump device, wait for the pump device to run stably, collect instantaneous thrust data through the thrust sensor and analyze it, and study the instantaneous thrust characteristics of the pump device; When the pump device is running, the annular pressure measuring tubes at the inlet and outlet of the pump device are connected to the differential pressure transmitter to collect the head data, monitor the impeller torque of the pump device through the torque meter, and calculate the operating efficiency of the pump device based on the inlet and outlet pressure difference of the pump device.
