Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of detection technology, and in particular to a device and method for detecting atomization performance of a large-flow fuel nozzle. Background Art

[0002] Fuel nozzles are widely used in aircraft engines, gas turbines, etc. Their function is to atomize (or vaporize) the fuel, accelerate the formation of the mixture, ensure stable combustion and improve combustion efficiency. The quality of the fuel nozzle atomization performance will have a great impact on the subsequent combustion effect of the liquid fuel in the combustion chamber. The atomization particle size is one of the important evaluation indicators of the fuel nozzle atomization performance. Under certain working conditions, a large flow of liquid spray is required. For example, some large industrial fuel burners can output more than 3000kg / h of oil, and the liquid mist is relatively dense. For such large equipment, the nozzle structure generally adopts a multi-spray hole and medium atomization method to disperse the medium into fine droplets as much as possible. Factors affecting the medium atomization effect include nozzle structure, flow rate, medium viscosity, etc. In order to ensure the use effect, the atomization particle size is usually required to be between a few microns and hundreds of microns.

[0003] In engineering applications, instruments based on the principle of reflection, refraction light interference or diffraction scattered light are generally used to detect the atomization particle size. Most of the existing detection methods use laser particle analyzers to detect the atomization particle size of fuel nozzles. Under certain working conditions or when some gas turbines use a single fuel nozzle, the oil mist is relatively dense, so that the laser emitted by the detection equipment cannot penetrate the oil mist, resulting in failure of the fuel atomization particle size detection.

[0004] The invention application with publication number CN111879670A discloses an atomization performance detection system and detection method, which uses a nozzle to spray horizontally and a liquid mist baffle to block most of the oil mist, and reflects the atomization performance of the fuel nozzle by detecting a small part of the oil mist. The above patent only allows a small part of the oil mist to enter the detection chamber to participate in the atomization performance detection, but the detection of a small part of the oil mist is difficult to reflect the overall atomization performance of the fuel nozzle, which is easy to cause a large distortion of the atomization performance detection result. Summary of the invention

[0035] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 7 In this embodiment, the structural screw 1 31 of the atomization particle size test fixture fixes the fuel nozzle on the nozzle mounting seat 30, and the nozzle mounting seat 30 is connected to the mounting plate 40 through the screw 2 32. After the baffle 60 is welded to the oil pipe 53 on the double-layer oil tank assembly 50 through four fixing plates 61, the channel between the two baffles 60 is perpendicular to the knife edge G of the double-layer oil tank assembly 50.

[0036] like Figure 2 , Figure 5, screw three 42 is used to fit the double-layer oil tank assembly 50 on the lower end surface of the mounting plate 40, as shown in FIG. Figure 7 The distance between the knife edge G of the double-layer oil tank assembly 50 and the fuel nozzle is 1 to 3 mm. Figure 6 , the two engraved lines F on the lower end surface of the mounting plate 40 are aligned. Figure 2 , Figure 6 The bottom surface of the mounting plate 40 is evenly provided with a plurality of ventilation holes A along the circumference.

[0037] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 7 The upper oil tank 51 is a semi-enclosed long oil tank, one side of which is an inclined surface with a knife edge G, and the knife edge G maintains a sharp edge; the other side is a vertical surface with a vertical mounting edge, and the mounting edge is provided with two U-shaped grooves, which are used to fix the double-layer oil tank assembly 50 on the lower end surface of the central seat hole of the mounting plate 40, and the installation position of the double-layer oil tank assembly 50 can be adjusted as needed.

At the same time, the exhaust device 11 at the bottom of the detection chamber 10 is started to remove the mist in time. At this time, half of the fuel particles sprayed by the fuel nozzle 70 enter the detection area, and the other half of the fuel particles are guided to the non-detection area in the baffles on both sides through the double-layer oil tank assembly 50.
