Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a rocket engine component, specifically to a device for testing the heat transfer coefficient of a turbopump isolation chamber and a method for analyzing its thermal state. Background Technology

[0002] The starting principle of a pump-fed liquid rocket engine is to use a turbopump to deliver propellant from the tank to the thrust chamber through pipelines, thereby achieving startup. The turbopump is a combination of a turbine and a propellant pump. The oxidizer pump and fuel pump are driven by the turbine, which is coaxial with the pump or driven by gears. In a liquid oxygen / kerosene engine, the working fluid of the oxidizer pump is liquid oxygen, a cryogenic propellant; the working fluid of the fuel pump is kerosene, a room-temperature propellant. An isolation chamber exists between the oxidizer pump and the fuel pump. This isolation chamber serves two purposes: first, it separates the room-temperature fuel pump from the cryogenic oxidizer pump; second, since the turbopump's seals often leak small amounts of propellant, the isolation chamber allows for the use of a purging air source to remove this leakage, thus preventing the accumulation of both propellants from adversely affecting pump performance.

[0003] The heat transfer coefficient within the isolation chamber is a crucial boundary condition for analyzing the heat transfer state of the turbopump isolation chamber. Due to the complex structure of turbopumps, involving numerous parts and materials, and considering the rotating components and high internal pressure, it is difficult to obtain the internal thermal state of the bearing cavity through experiments. Simulation analysis is more effective. Due to the structural limitations of turbopumps, the isolation chamber is typically annular, and nitrogen is usually the purge gas source, although helium or other gases are sometimes used. The purge gas enters through openings on the annular circumferential surface of the isolation chamber and exits through openings at intervals. The flow lines within the isolation chamber are quite chaotic after entering, making it difficult to obtain realistic boundary conditions through theoretical estimation. However, during engine testing, the analysis of the isolation chamber purge process is crucial for determining the capacity of the nitrogen cylinder carried by the engine during actual service. Accurate estimation of the purge state and the required purge gas volume is essential for simplifying the rocket engine structure and improving its thrust-to-weight ratio. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problem that it is difficult to obtain the internal thermal state of the isolation chamber of a turbopump through experimental methods, and to provide a test device for the heat transfer coefficient of the isolation chamber of a turbopump and a method for thermal state analysis.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution provided by this invention is:

[0006] A device for testing the heat transfer coefficient of a turbine pump isolation chamber, characterized by:

[0007] It includes a fuel chamber simulator, an isolation chamber simulator, and an oxidizer chamber simulator that are coaxially connected in sequence;

[0009] The first annular plate is provided with a fuel inlet pipe and a fuel outlet pipe; the third annular plate is provided with an oxidant inlet pipe and an oxidant outlet pipe;

[0010] Multiple connectors are provided on the sidewall of the second annular cavity and / or frustum, with a total number of at least three connectors. At least two connectors are used to simulate the inflow and outflow of purging gas during purging, respectively, and at least one connector is used to monitor the internal temperature and pressure of the isolation cavity simulator.

[0011] Furthermore, temperature sensors and pressure sensors are installed in both the fuel inlet pipe and the oxidant inlet pipe; temperature sensors are installed in both the fuel outlet pipe and the oxidant outlet pipe.

[0012] Furthermore, the number of connectors is eight, with four connectors evenly distributed around the circumference of the frustum sidewall and the other four connectors evenly distributed around the circumference of the second annular cavity sidewall; the connectors used to simulate the inflow and outflow of purging gas are pipe connectors, and the connectors used to measure temperature and pressure are aviation plugs; the temperature sensor is a thermocouple.

[0013] Furthermore, the second and third annular cavities are connected by connecting flanges, and a sealing ring is provided between the two connecting flanges; the inner diameters of the first annular plate, the third annular plate, the isolation annular plate, the first annular cavity, the second annular cavity, the third annular cavity, and the frustum are equal.

[0014] Furthermore, the outer walls of the oxidant inlet pipe, the oxidant outlet pipe, and the oxidant cavity simulator are all covered with heat insulation material, which includes one or more of high-silica glass fiber cloth, Kevlar cloth, and silicone rubber cloth.

[0015] Furthermore, the fuel inlet pipe and the fuel outlet pipe are symmetrically arranged about the axis of the first annular plate, and the oxidant inlet pipe and the oxidant outlet pipe are symmetrically arranged about the axis of the third annular plate.

[0016] Meanwhile, the present invention also provides a method for analyzing the thermal state of a turbopump isolation chamber, which uses the aforementioned turbopump isolation chamber heat transfer coefficient testing device, and is characterized by including the following steps:

[0017] Step 1: Install the turbine pump isolation chamber heat transfer coefficient testing device to the preset position;

[0018] Step 2: Start filling the oxidant chamber simulation with oxidant from the oxidant inlet pipe. When the oxidant chamber simulation is full, the oxidant will automatically flow out from the oxidant outlet pipe. At the same time, monitor the temperature T1 and pressure P1 of the oxidant inlet pipe and the temperature T2 of the oxidant outlet pipe until T2 reaches the preset value. Maintain this state for t1 time.

[0019] Step 3: Start filling the fuel chamber simulator with fuel from the fuel inlet pipe. When the fuel chamber simulator is full, the fuel will automatically flow out from the fuel outlet pipe. At the same time, monitor the temperature T3 and pressure P2 of the fuel inlet pipe and the temperature T4 of the fuel outlet pipe until T4 reaches the preset value and maintain this state for t2.

[0020] Step 4: Start by introducing purging gas into the isolation cavity simulator through at least one connector. Once the isolation cavity simulator is filled, the purging gas will automatically flow out from the other connector. At the same time, monitor the temperature T5 and pressure P3 of the connector into which the purging gas is introduced, as well as the outer wall temperature T6, inner wall temperature T7, internal space temperature T8, and internal space pressure P4 of the isolation cavity simulator, until T6, T7, T8, and P4 all reach the preset steady-state range. Maintain this state for a duration t3, and then record the values ​​of T6, T7, T8, and P4 at this time.

[0021] Step 5: Change the temperature and pressure of the blow-off gas, then return to step 4, obtain and record the values ​​of T6, T7, T8 and P4 in another preset steady-state range, until the corresponding values ​​of T5 and P3 and T6, T7, T8 and P4 in N preset steady-state ranges are obtained. After sorting, the flow rate-heat transfer coefficient table of the inner surface of the isolation chamber at different temperatures is obtained, i.e., the qh table.

[0022] Step 6: Establish a heat transfer model of the actual turbopump. The heat transfer model includes an oxidant chamber, an isolation chamber, and a fuel chamber. Set several temperature check points on the heat transfer model and set an actual allowable temperature range for each temperature check point.

[0023] Step 7: Based on the qh table obtained in Step 5, set the boundary conditions for the heat transfer model;

[0024] Step 8: According to the boundary conditions of the heat transfer model, if the precooling and exhaust conditions of the turbopump do not change with time, the thermal state of the turbopump heat transfer model is obtained by steady-state analysis; if at least one of the precooling and exhaust conditions of the turbopump changes with time, the thermal state of the turbopump heat transfer model is obtained by transient analysis.

[0025] Step 9: Based on the thermal state of the turbine pump heat transfer model, determine whether the temperature at each temperature check point is within the actual allowable temperature range. If the temperature at each temperature check point is within its corresponding actual allowable temperature range, the boundary conditions of the heat transfer model meet the requirements, and the thermal state analysis of the turbine pump isolation chamber is completed. If the temperature at at least one temperature check point is not within its corresponding actual allowable temperature range, return to step 7 to modify the boundary conditions of the heat transfer model.

[0026] Furthermore, step 7 specifically includes:

[0027] Step 7.1: Set the inner surface of the oxidant chamber to convective heat transfer conditions or isothermal conditions according to the flow rate of the oxidant during the pre-cooling process, and set the outer surface of the oxidant chamber to adiabatic conditions.

[0028] Step 7.2: Set the inner surface of the fuel chamber to convective heat transfer conditions or isothermal conditions according to the fuel flow rate. The heat transfer coefficient h4 of the inner surface of the fuel chamber is calculated according to the DB formula, and the heat transfer temperature Th4 of the inner surface of the fuel chamber is the fuel temperature. Set the outer surface of the fuel chamber to natural convection heat transfer conditions. The heat transfer coefficient h1 of the outer surface of the fuel chamber is estimated according to the natural convection heat transfer formula, and the heat transfer temperature Th1 of the outer surface of the fuel chamber is the ambient temperature during the test.

[0029] Step 7.3: Set the inner surface of the isolation chamber to convective heat transfer conditions. The heat transfer coefficient h2 of the inner surface of the isolation chamber is set according to the qh table obtained in Step 5, and the heat transfer temperature Th2 of the inner surface of the isolation chamber is set according to the temperature of the blow-off gas in the blow-off chamber. Set the outer surface of the isolation chamber to natural convection heat transfer conditions. The heat transfer coefficient h3 of the outer surface of the isolation chamber is estimated according to the natural convection heat transfer formula, and the heat transfer temperature Th3 of the outer surface of the isolation chamber is the ambient temperature during the test.

[0030] Furthermore, if the temperature check point that does not meet the conditions is inside the isolation chamber, then a new set of qh values ​​that are different from the previously selected qh values ​​should be selected in the qh table; if the temperature check point that does not meet the conditions is inside the fuel chamber, then the heat transfer coefficient h4 and the heat transfer temperature Th4 of the inner surface of the fuel chamber should be adjusted.

[0031] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0032] 1. The present invention provides a test device for the heat transfer coefficient of a turbopump isolation chamber, comprising a fuel chamber simulator, an isolation chamber simulator, and an oxidant chamber simulator, which can conveniently test the heat transfer coefficient and simulate the actual working conditions of the turbopump isolation chamber, providing a basis for the thermal state analysis of the turbopump isolation chamber;

[0033] 2. The present invention provides a method for analyzing the thermal state of a turbopump isolation chamber. By calculating the heat transfer coefficient of the isolation chamber, the temperature data of various important points in the turbopump, i.e., the thermal state, can be obtained more accurately to assess the state of the turbopump purging process and determine whether the temperature of the turbopump bearings and seals is within the allowable temperature range of the materials. If there is a risk of engine starting, this method can be used to predict the thermal state of the improvement scheme, optimize the test system process, and ensure that the engine turbopump starts normally.

[0039] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0040] A device for testing the heat transfer coefficient of a turbine pump isolation chamber, see [link / reference]. Figures 1-3 It includes a fuel chamber simulator 2, an isolation chamber simulator 4, and an oxidizer chamber simulator 8, which are connected coaxially in sequence.

[0041] The fuel chamber simulator 2 is a first annular cavity, and the oxidant chamber simulator 8 is a third annular cavity; the isolation chamber simulator 4 includes a hollow frustum and a second annular cavity, the larger end of the frustum is connected to one end of the second annular cavity, the smaller end of the frustum is connected to one end of the first annular cavity, and the other end of the second annular cavity is connected to one end of the third annular cavity; a first annular plate is provided at the other end of the first annular cavity, and a third annular plate is provided at the other end of the third annular cavity; isolation annular plates are provided between the first annular cavity and the frustum, and between the second annular cavity and the third annular cavity; the first annular plate and the third annular plate... The inner diameters of the isolation annular plate, the first annular cavity, the second annular cavity, the third annular cavity, and the frustum are equal. The first annular plate is provided with a fuel inlet pipe 1 and a fuel outlet pipe 10. The third annular plate is provided with an oxidant inlet pipe 9 and an oxidant outlet pipe 10. Four connectors 3 are evenly distributed circumferentially on the side walls of the second annular cavity and the frustum, respectively. Four connectors 3 are located on the side wall of the frustum and four connectors 5 are located on the side wall of the second annular cavity. The connectors 3 used to simulate the introduction and exit of nitrogen gas during purging are pipe connectors, and the connectors 3 used to measure temperature and pressure data are aviation plugs.

[0042] To facilitate the assembly and disassembly of the isolation chamber simulation component 4, the second and third annular cavities are connected by a connecting flange 6; at the same time, to enhance the sealing performance, a sealing ring 5 is provided between the two connecting flanges 6.

[0043] In this embodiment, temperature sensors and pressure sensors are installed in both the fuel inlet pipe 1 and the oxidant inlet pipe 9; temperature sensors are installed in both the fuel outlet pipe 10 and the oxidant outlet pipe 10. All temperature sensors are thermocouples.

[0044] The fuel inlet pipe 1 and fuel outlet pipe 10 are arranged radially symmetrically about the first annular plate, and the oxidant inlet pipe 9 and oxidant outlet pipe 10 are arranged radially symmetrically about the third annular plate. This arrangement facilitates the entry and exit of oxidant and fuel. Since the oxidant is generally liquid oxygen, a cryogenic medium, it usually needs to be covered during testing to reduce heat leakage. Therefore, the outer walls of the oxidant inlet pipe 9, oxidant outlet pipe 10, and oxidant cavity simulation component 8 are all covered with heat-insulating material, including one or more of high-silica glass fiber cloth, Kevlar cloth, and silicone rubber cloth.

[0045] The purpose of calculating the thermal state of the isolation chamber is to ensure that the low temperature of liquid oxygen does not transfer to the kerosene pump chamber (i.e., the fuel chamber) before the test or launch of the liquid rocket engine, thus preventing low-temperature damage to the bearings, seals, and other sealing components of the kerosene pump chamber, and to confirm the pre-cooling and purging processes of the turbopump. To this end, this embodiment also provides a method for analyzing the thermal state of the turbopump isolation chamber, using the aforementioned turbopump isolation chamber heat transfer coefficient testing device, including the following steps:

[0046] Step 1: Install the turbine pump isolation chamber heat transfer coefficient testing device to the preset position;

[0047] Step 2: Start filling the oxidant chamber simulation component 8 with oxidant from the oxidant inlet pipe 9. When the oxidant chamber simulation component 8 is full, the oxidant will automatically flow out from the oxidant outlet pipe 10. At the same time, monitor the temperature T1 and pressure P1 of the oxidant inlet pipe 9 and the temperature T2 of the oxidant outlet pipe 10 until the preset value is reached (e.g., T2 < -153℃). Maintain this state for t1 ≥ 3 min.

[0048] Step 3: Start filling the fuel chamber simulation component 2 with fuel from the fuel inlet pipe 1. When the fuel chamber simulation component 2 is full, the fuel will automatically flow out from the fuel outlet pipe 10. At the same time, monitor the temperature T3 and pressure P2 of the fuel inlet pipe 1 and the temperature T4 of the fuel outlet pipe 10 until T4 reaches the preset value. Maintain this state for t2≥3min.

[0049] Step 4: Start by introducing purging gas into the isolation chamber simulation component 4 through the two connectors 3. When the isolation chamber simulation component 4 is filled, the purging gas will automatically flow out from the other connector 3. At the same time, monitor the temperature T5 and pressure P3 of the connector 3 through which the purging gas is introduced, as well as the outer wall temperature T6, inner wall temperature T7, internal space temperature T8, and internal space pressure P4 of the isolation chamber simulation component 4, until T6, T7, T8, and P4 all reach the preset steady state range. Maintain this state for t3≥3min, and then record the values ​​of T6, T7, T8, and P4 at this time.

[0050] Step 5: Change the temperature and pressure of the blow-off gas, then return to step 4, obtain and record the values ​​of T6, T7, T8 and P4 in another preset steady-state range, until the corresponding values ​​of T5 and P3 and T6, T7, T8 and P4 in N preset steady-state ranges are obtained. After sorting, the flow rate-heat transfer coefficient table of the inner surface of the isolation chamber at different temperatures is obtained, i.e., the qh table.

[0051] Step 6: Establish a heat transfer model of the actual turbopump using TMG, ANSYS THERMAL, or other heat transfer software. The heat transfer model includes an oxidant chamber, an isolation chamber, and a fuel chamber. Set several temperature check points on the heat transfer model and set the actual allowable temperature range for each temperature check point. In the heat transfer software, set the corresponding material properties and contact relationship properties, and set the kerosene pump chamber bearings, sealing rings, and other sealing components or other key parts of concern as the main temperature check points.

[0052] Step 7: Based on the qh table obtained in Step 5, set the boundary conditions for the heat transfer model;

[0053] Step 7.1: Set the inner surface of the oxidant chamber to convective heat transfer conditions or isothermal conditions according to the flow rate of the oxidant during the pre-cooling process, and set the outer surface of the oxidant chamber to adiabatic conditions.

[0054] Step 7.2: Set the inner surface of the fuel chamber to convective heat transfer conditions or isothermal conditions according to the fuel flow rate. The heat transfer coefficient h4 of the inner surface of the fuel chamber is calculated according to the DB formula, and the heat transfer temperature Th4 of the inner surface of the fuel chamber is the fuel temperature. Set the outer surface of the fuel chamber to natural convection heat transfer conditions. The heat transfer coefficient h1 of the outer surface of the fuel chamber is estimated according to the natural convection heat transfer formula, and the heat transfer temperature Th1 of the outer surface of the fuel chamber is the ambient temperature during the test.

[0055] Step 7.3: Set the inner surface of the isolation chamber to convective heat transfer conditions. The heat transfer coefficient h2 of the inner surface of the isolation chamber is set according to the qh table obtained in Step 5, and the heat transfer temperature Th2 of the inner surface of the isolation chamber is set according to the temperature of the purge gas in the purge chamber. Set the outer surface of the isolation chamber to natural convection heat transfer conditions. The heat transfer coefficient h3 of the outer surface of the isolation chamber is estimated according to the natural convection heat transfer formula, and the heat transfer temperature Th3 of the outer surface of the isolation chamber is the ambient temperature during the test.

[0056] Step 8: According to the boundary conditions of the heat transfer model, if the precooling and exhaust conditions of the turbopump do not change with time, the thermal state of the turbopump heat transfer model is obtained by steady-state analysis; if at least one of the precooling and exhaust conditions of the turbopump changes with time, the thermal state of the turbopump heat transfer model is obtained by transient analysis.

[0057] Step 9: Based on the thermal state of the turbopump heat transfer model, determine whether the temperature at each temperature check point is within the actual allowable temperature range. If the temperature at each temperature check point is within its corresponding actual allowable temperature range, the boundary conditions of the heat transfer model meet the requirements, and the thermal state analysis of the turbopump isolation chamber is completed. If at least one temperature check point is outside its corresponding actual allowable temperature range, return to Step 7 to modify the boundary conditions of the heat transfer model. The modification method is as follows: if the temperature check point that does not meet the conditions is inside the isolation chamber, then reselect a set of qh values ​​in the qh table that are different from the previously selected qh values. If the temperature check point that does not meet the conditions is inside the fuel chamber, then adjust the heat transfer coefficient h4 and the heat transfer temperature Th4 of the inner surface of the fuel chamber.

[0058] This embodiment can conveniently test the heat transfer coefficient and simulate the actual working conditions of the turbine pump isolation chamber, providing a basis for the thermal state analysis of the turbine pump isolation chamber.
