Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of dry gas sealing performance testing, and in particular relates to a dry gas sealing ring displacement excitation structure and a dynamic response testing device. Background Art

[0002] Rotating machinery systems have complex dynamic characteristics, and the shaft system is prone to instability during operation. This instability phenomenon greatly affects the operational stability of rotating machinery. For example, when running at high speed, the gas bearing-rotor system faces a variety of nonlinear excitation sources, resulting in many nonlinear vibration problems in the system, which significantly affects the dynamic characteristics and stability of the gas bearing-rotor system. Dry gas seals are widely used in shaft end seals of various rotating equipment due to their good sealing performance, but dry gas seals are often affected by various external disturbances, such as axial movement or angular deflection of the shaft, and vibration of the solid casing. Among these disturbances, the influence of shaft vibration is the most significant. If the dry gas seal cannot adapt well to external vibrations, it is easy to cause failures such as excessive wear of the end face or excessive leakage of the medium. At present, due to the limitations of test equipment, the dynamic characteristics of key basic parts such as dry gas seals and air bearings are mainly studied by theoretical analysis methods, while experimental research is relatively rare. The reason is that it is impossible to quantitatively and accurately construct the shaft excitation state of the seal or bearing. By simulating dynamic excitation in a real environment, dynamic experiments can help researchers understand the behavior and response of the system under different conditions and reveal the dynamic characteristics and potential problems of the system. In addition, dynamic experiments are essential to verify the accuracy of dynamic characteristics numerical simulation models and improve prediction accuracy. Therefore, it is very necessary to accurately simulate the excitation force and displacement of key basic parts of rotating equipment (especially dry gas seals) in the laboratory.

[0003] At present, in the study of dynamic characteristics, there are external devices for simulating specific excitations. Usually, a sinusoidal dynamic force is applied to the measured part through an electromagnetic exciter and an excitation rod, or a variable load is manually applied using a screw micrometer, or a pressure regulating chamber is added to the back of the measured part, and a pressurized gas is introduced into the pressure regulating chamber to apply an axial force during the test. However, under actual working conditions, disturbances are usually unpredictable. The manual variable load method cannot accurately simulate the actual working conditions and cannot be controlled; and the exciter is often expensive and has a fixed frequency. It can only provide excitation at a certain point, and it is difficult to achieve simultaneous excitation at multiple locations. In addition, electronic components are expensive and easily damaged during disassembly, which increases the cost of the experiment. Some workers also use a method with a corrugated ring to provide excitation, but this method only provides an upward force and does not consider whether the components can accurately follow the excitation, resulting in the actual excitation being much smaller than the given excitation. At the same time, the size of the driving component is fixed and the excitation force is limited. In addition to an accurate excitation source, accurate monitoring of the response of the responding component is crucial to evaluating its dynamic performance. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a compact and simple dry gas sealing ring excitation and dynamic response test device with precise and controllable excitation. Summary of the invention
