Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of combustion chambers, and in particular to a hydrogen-kerosene centrally staged dual-fuel combustion chamber. Background Art

[0002] With the development of the aviation industry, the carbon emissions of the aviation industry have increased year by year. In order to respond to my country's "dual carbon" policy, it is necessary to reduce the carbon emissions of aircraft engines. The use of new energy such as hydrogen energy is one of the important ways to reduce carbon emissions of aircraft engines. However, the application of pure hydrogen fuel in aircraft engines faces a series of technical challenges. First, hydrogen fuel has the characteristics of low density and weak jet penetration, which leads to uneven mixing during the combustion process, which may cause local high-temperature hot spots and unstable combustion. Secondly, the high flame propagation speed, wide flammable range and high reactivity of hydrogen make pure hydrogen fuel gas turbines prone to flashback risks during design and operation. In addition, due to the high temperature of the hydrogen adiabatic flame, more nitrogen oxide pollution emissions may be generated during the combustion process, which poses a potential threat to environmental protection.

[0003] In order to overcome these technical difficulties, researchers began to explore how to improve combustion efficiency and mixing uniformity by optimizing the combustion chamber structure, and effectively reduce the risk of flashback and pollutant emissions. Among them, the research and development of pure hydrogen combustion technology has become an important direction. However, pure hydrogen combustion has a larger span than traditional kerosene combustion, and is more prone to oscillation and flashback problems, which further increases the difficulty of technical implementation. Adding hydrogen combustion to the traditional kerosene combustion chamber is seen as a potential solution. The kerosene combustion chamber atomizes the kerosene through a nozzle to form a liquid film, which is then peeled and broken at the end of the venturi to form smaller liquid mist particles. A cyclone is used to form a recirculation zone to achieve uniform mixing and efficient combustion of kerosene and air. However, most of the existing cyclones are designed for traditional kerosene combustion, and do not take into account the characteristics and needs of hydrogen combustion.

[0004] Therefore, how to effectively add hydrogen to the kerosene combustion chamber to achieve the co-combustion of the two fuels in order to improve combustion efficiency, stabilize the flame and reduce carbon emissions has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently.

[0023] Specifically, see Figure 2-Figure 4 The swirler 8 includes a pre-combustion stage liquid fuel nozzle 1, a pre-combustion stage swirler structure and a main combustion stage swirler structure. The pre-combustion stage liquid fuel nozzle 1 is located at the center of the swirler, and is used to spray the pre-combustion stage liquid fuel into the pre-combustion zone. The pre-combustion stage swirler structure and the main combustion stage swirler structure are sequentially arranged around the outside of the pre-combustion stage liquid fuel nozzle 1. A main combustion stage gas fuel channel 100, a main combustion stage liquid fuel channel 200 and a pre-combustion stage gas fuel channel 300 are provided between the pre-combustion stage swirler structure and the main combustion stage swirler structure. A pre-combustion stage gas fuel nozzle 501 is provided on the pre-combustion stage swirler structure, and the pre-combustion stage gas fuel nozzle 501 is connected to the pre-combustion stage gas fuel channel 300, and is used to spray the pre-combustion stage gas fuel into the pre-combustion zone. The main combustion stage swirler structure is provided with a main combustion stage gas fuel nozzle 601 and a main combustion stage liquid fuel nozzle 602. The main combustion stage gas fuel nozzle 601 is connected to the main combustion stage gas fuel channel 100, and the main combustion stage gas fuel nozzle 601 is used to spray the main combustion stage gas fuel into the main combustion zone; the main combustion stage liquid fuel nozzle 602 is connected to the main combustion stage liquid fuel channel 200, and the main combustion stage liquid fuel nozzle 602 is used to spray the main combustion stage liquid fuel into the main combustion zone.

[0025] The liquid fuel of the present invention may be kerosene, and the gaseous fuel may be hydrogen, but the present invention is not limited thereto. Based on the traditional kerosene combustion chamber, the present invention improves the structure of the swirler to achieve the co-combustion of kerosene and hydrogen, thereby obtaining a dual-fuel combustion chamber with higher combustion efficiency, more stable flame and lower carbon emissions.

[0026] Specifically, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The pre-combustion stage swirler structure includes a primary swirler 3 and a secondary swirler 5, and the main combustion stage swirler structure includes a tertiary swirler 6. The primary swirler 3, the secondary swirler 5 and the tertiary swirler 6 are sequentially arranged outside the pre-combustion stage liquid fuel nozzle 1. Among them, the pre-combustion stage gas fuel nozzle 501 is arranged on the secondary swirler 5, and the main combustion stage gas fuel nozzle 601 and the main combustion stage liquid fuel nozzle 602 are both arranged on the tertiary swirler 6. The main combustion stage gas fuel channel 100, the main combustion stage liquid fuel channel 200 and the pre-combustion stage gas fuel channel 300 are all arranged between the secondary swirler 5 and the tertiary swirler 6.

[0027] The primary cyclone 3 includes a first support body 31 and a plurality of primary blades 32, the plurality of primary blades 32 are fixed to the periphery of the first support body 31, and the plurality of primary blades 32 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the primary cyclone 3. The secondary cyclone 5 includes a second support body 51, a plurality of secondary blades 52 and a cyclone inner shell 53, the plurality of secondary blades 52 are fixed to the periphery of the second support body 51, and the plurality of secondary blades 52 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the secondary cyclone 5, and the cyclone inner shell 53 is sleeved on the periphery of the plurality of secondary blades 52. The tertiary cyclone 6 includes a third support body 61 and a plurality of tertiary blades 62, the plurality of tertiary blades 62 are fixed to the periphery of the third support body 61, and the plurality of tertiary blades 62 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the tertiary cyclone 6.

[0028] It can be understood that the inner area of ​​the swirler inner shell 53 corresponds to the pre-combustion zone, and the outer area of ​​the swirler inner shell 53 corresponds to the main combustion zone.

[0029] like Figure 3 As shown, the liquid inlet end of the pre-combustion level liquid fuel nozzle 1 is connected to a pre-combustion level liquid fuel delivery pipe 2, and the pre-combustion level liquid fuel delivery pipe 2 is used to pass the pre-combustion level liquid fuel. The swirler also includes a venturi 4, and the inlet end of the venturi 4 is arranged between the primary swirler 3 and the secondary swirler 5. The pre-combustion level liquid fuel entering the pre-combustion level liquid fuel delivery pipe 2 is atomized and sprayed through the pre-combustion level liquid fuel nozzle 1 to form a liquid film, and the liquid film is then peeled and broken at the outlet end of the venturi 4 to form smaller liquid mist particles, and the primary swirler 3 is used to form a recirculation zone, so that the liquid fuel and air are evenly mixed and efficiently burned in the pre-combustion zone.

[0030] Among them, the interior of the secondary swirler 5 is constructed with a pre-combustion stage gas fuel branch 502, and a plurality of pre-combustion stage gas fuel nozzles 501 are distributed circumferentially at the end of the secondary swirler 5, and each pre-combustion stage gas fuel nozzle 501 is connected to the pre-combustion stage gas fuel channel 300 through the pre-combustion stage gas fuel branch 502.

[0031] The third-stage cyclone 6 is internally constructed with a main combustion stage liquid fuel branch 603, and a plurality of main combustion stage liquid fuel nozzles 602 are circumferentially distributed at the end of the third-stage cyclone 6, and each of the main combustion stage liquid fuel nozzles 602 is connected to the main combustion stage liquid fuel channel 200 through the main combustion stage liquid fuel branch 603. The third-stage cyclone 6 is also internally constructed with a main combustion stage gas fuel branch (not shown), and a plurality of main combustion stage gas fuel nozzles 601 are circumferentially distributed at the end of the third-stage cyclone 6, and each of the main combustion stage gas fuel nozzles 601 is connected to the main combustion stage gas fuel channel 100 through the main combustion stage gas fuel branch.

[0032] Among them, the main combustion stage liquid fuel branch 603 and the main combustion stage gas fuel branch are set independently of each other, so as to control the intake amount and flow rate of the main combustion stage liquid fuel and the main combustion stage gas fuel respectively.

[0033] It can be understood that the cyclone usually includes an air inlet side and an air outlet side, and the air enters the cyclone from the air inlet side and is mixed with the fuel at the air outlet side. The end of the secondary cyclone 5 refers to the end of the secondary cyclone 5 close to the air outlet side, and the end of the tertiary cyclone 6 refers to the end of the tertiary cyclone 6 close to the air outlet side.

[0034] Specifically, see Figure 3 and Figure 5A plurality of pre-combustion stage gas fuel nozzles 501 are circumferentially distributed on the side wall of the swirler inner shell 53 near the primary swirler 3, that is, the pre-combustion stage gas fuel nozzles 501 face the pre-combustion zone, and the pre-combustion stage gas fuel entering the pre-combustion stage gas fuel channel 300 flows through the pre-combustion stage gas fuel branch 502 and is ejected toward the pre-combustion zone through the pre-combustion stage gas fuel nozzles 501. The specific flow direction is as follows: Figure 3 As shown by the middle arrow, the ejected pre-combustion gas fuel utilizes the recirculation zone formed by the secondary swirler 5 to achieve uniform mixing of the gas fuel and air in the pre-combustion zone.

[0035] A plurality of main combustion stage liquid fuel nozzles 602 are distributed at the ends of a plurality of tertiary blades 62, and each tertiary blade 62 is provided with at least one main combustion stage liquid fuel nozzle 602 arranged radially along the tertiary swirler 6. The main combustion stage liquid fuel entering the main combustion stage liquid fuel passage 200 flows through the main combustion stage liquid fuel branch 603 and is ejected toward the main combustion zone through the main combustion stage liquid fuel nozzle 602. The specific flow direction is as follows: Figure 3 As shown by the arrow in the middle, the ejected main combustion stage liquid fuel utilizes the recirculation zone formed by the three-stage swirler 6 to achieve uniform mixing of the liquid fuel and air in the main combustion zone.

[0036] A plurality of main combustion stage gas fuel nozzles 601 are distributed below the main combustion stage liquid fuel nozzle 602 (i.e., on the side close to the air outlet side), and each third-stage blade 62 is provided with at least one main combustion stage gas fuel nozzle 601 arranged along the radial direction of the third-stage swirler 6. The main combustion stage gas fuel entering the main combustion stage gas fuel channel 100 flows through the main combustion stage gas fuel branch and is ejected toward the main combustion zone through the main combustion stage gas fuel nozzle 601. The specific flow direction is as follows: Figure 3 As shown by the arrow in the middle, the ejected main combustion gas fuel utilizes the recirculation zone formed by the three-stage swirler 6 to achieve uniform mixing of the gas fuel and air in the main combustion zone.

[0037] The number of the main combustion stage liquid fuel nozzles 602 and the main combustion stage gas fuel nozzles 601 on each three-stage blade 62 can be specifically set according to the actual incoming flow rate and combustion needs. For example, the main combustion stage gas fuel nozzles 601 on each three-stage blade 62 can be arranged in the form of double openings, single openings or multiple openings. The arrangement of the main combustion stage liquid fuel nozzles 602 is similar to that, and will not be repeated here.

[0038] This embodiment is explained by taking kerosene as the liquid fuel and hydrogen as the gas fuel as an example. The swirler adopts a staged fuel supply and zoned combustion mode. A pre-combustion stage liquid fuel nozzle 1 (such as a pressure atomizing nozzle) is installed in the center of the swirler to supply kerosene to the pre-combustion stage; a main combustion stage liquid fuel nozzle 602 is opened at the end of the blade of the third-stage swirler 6 to supply kerosene to the main combustion stage. The swirler of the present invention also adopts a staged gas supply and zoned combustion mode. A pre-combustion stage gas fuel nozzle 501 is opened at the end of the blade of the second-stage swirler 5 to supply hydrogen to the pre-combustion stage; a main combustion stage gas fuel nozzle 601 is opened on the lower side of the main combustion stage liquid fuel nozzle 602 of the third-stage swirler 6 to supply hydrogen to the main combustion stage. The hydrogen and kerosene combustion modes can be regulated and switched freely to perform dual-fuel mixed combustion or single fuel switching combustion.

[0039] In addition, since the air flows from the air inlet side to the air outlet side of the cyclone, air without fuel will not burn. Similarly, fuel (such as pure hydrogen and kerosene) without air will not burn. Since the airflow flows downward (towards the air outlet side) as a whole, the fuel sprayed from the end of the blade will not flow upward (towards the air inlet side), that is, the upstream airflow is pure air and will not burn. This ensures that combustion occurs in the flame tube of the combustion chamber, thereby avoiding flashback and making the flame more stable, so as to solve the problem of flashback affecting the cyclone blades and fuel delivery channels.

[0040] See also Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 The main combustion stage gas fuel channel 100 and / or the pre-combustion stage gas fuel channel 300 are arranged around the main combustion stage liquid fuel channel 200 to wrap the main combustion stage liquid fuel channel 200. Since the thermal conductivity of gas fuel (such as hydrogen) is poor, the main combustion stage liquid fuel channel 200 is wrapped by the main combustion stage gas fuel channel 100 and / or the pre-combustion stage gas fuel channel 300, which can play the effect of keeping the liquid fuel (such as kerosene) warm.

[0041] It should be noted that the main combustion stage gas fuel channel 100 and the pre-combustion stage gas fuel channel 300 can be combined to form a gas fuel channel to jointly wrap the main combustion stage liquid fuel channel 200; or, the main combustion stage liquid fuel channel 200 can be wrapped by only one of the main combustion stage gas fuel channel 100 and the pre-combustion stage gas fuel channel 300, which can be determined according to the actual fuel demand and flow rate.

[0042] In which, when the main combustion stage gas fuel channel 100 and the pre-combustion stage gas fuel channel 300 are combined to surround the main combustion stage liquid fuel channel 200, the pre-combustion stage gas fuel channel 300 is located on the side of the main combustion stage liquid fuel channel 200 close to the pre-combustion stage liquid fuel nozzle 1, so that the pre-combustion stage gas fuel channel 300 is connected with the pre-combustion stage gas fuel nozzle 501.

[0043] Specifically, the main combustion stage gas fuel channel 100 includes a main combustion stage gas fuel collecting chamber 101 and a main combustion stage gas fuel delivery pipe 102, the main combustion stage gas fuel delivery pipe 102 is connected to the main combustion stage gas fuel collecting chamber 101, and the main combustion stage gas fuel delivery pipe 102 is used to introduce the main combustion stage gas fuel. The main combustion stage liquid fuel channel 200 includes a main combustion stage liquid fuel collecting chamber 201 and a main combustion stage liquid fuel delivery pipe 202, the main combustion stage liquid fuel delivery pipe 202 is connected to the main combustion stage liquid fuel collecting chamber 201, and the main combustion stage liquid fuel delivery pipe 202 is used to introduce the main combustion stage liquid fuel. The pre-combustion stage gas fuel channel 300 includes a pre-combustion stage gas fuel collecting chamber 301 and a pre-combustion stage gas fuel delivery pipe 302, the pre-combustion stage gas fuel delivery pipe 302 is connected to the pre-combustion stage gas fuel collecting chamber 301, and the pre-combustion stage gas fuel delivery pipe 302 is used to introduce the pre-combustion stage gas fuel.

[0044] Among them, the main combustion stage gas fuel collecting cavity 101 and the pre-combustion stage gas fuel collecting cavity 301 are used to store the gas fuel of the main combustion stage and the pre-combustion stage respectively, and are both arranged around the secondary cyclone 5 so as to evenly transport the gas fuel to the gas fuel nozzle of the corresponding combustion stage. The main combustion stage liquid fuel collecting cavity 201 is used to store the main combustion stage liquid fuel, and is arranged around the secondary cyclone 5 so as to evenly transport the liquid fuel to the main combustion stage liquid fuel nozzle.

[0045] The number of the main combustion stage gas fuel delivery pipe 102, the main combustion stage liquid fuel delivery pipe 202 and the pre-combustion stage gas fuel delivery pipe 302 can be determined according to the actual fuel demand. In this embodiment, considering that the pre-combustion stage gas fuel flow rate is relatively low, preferably, the number of the pre-combustion stage gas fuel delivery pipe 302 can be less than the number of the main combustion stage gas fuel delivery pipe 102 and the main combustion stage liquid fuel delivery pipe 202.

[0046] Specifically, the main combustion stage liquid fuel channel 200 includes M main combustion stage liquid fuel delivery pipes 202, the main combustion stage gas fuel channel 100 includes M main combustion stage gas fuel delivery pipes 102, and the pre-combustion stage gas fuel channel 300 includes N pre-combustion stage gas fuel delivery pipes 302, wherein M is a positive integer greater than or equal to 2, N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1, and M>N.

[0047] Among them, a main combustion stage gas fuel delivery pipe 102 and a pre-combustion stage gas fuel delivery pipe 302 are combined to form a gas fuel delivery pipe group, and P groups of gas fuel delivery pipe groups are wrapped around the periphery of P main combustion stage liquid fuel delivery pipes 202 one by one, and the remaining main combustion stage gas fuel delivery pipes 102 are wrapped around the periphery of the remaining main combustion stage liquid fuel delivery pipes 202 one by one, wherein P is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1, and P <M。

[0048] By adopting such a design, the liquid fuel can be kept warm while meeting the flow requirements of the fuel at each level. Of course, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the number and layout of the fuel delivery pipes at each level can also be adjusted according to actual conditions.

[0049] For example, Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment, four main combustion stage gas fuel delivery pipes 102 extend outward from the main combustion stage gas fuel collecting cavity 101, four main combustion stage liquid fuel delivery pipes 202 extend outward from the main combustion stage liquid fuel collecting cavity 201, and two pre-combustion stage gas fuel delivery pipes 302 extend outward from the pre-combustion stage gas fuel collecting cavity 301, wherein two groups of gas fuel delivery pipe groups are wrapped around the periphery of the two main combustion stage liquid fuel delivery pipes 202 in a one-to-one manner, and the remaining two main combustion stage gas fuel delivery pipes 102 are wrapped around the periphery of the two main combustion stage liquid fuel delivery pipes 202 in a one-to-one manner, thereby achieving the effect of keeping the liquid fuel warm.

[0050] The hydrogen-kerosene centrally staged dual-fuel combustion chamber of the present invention is provided with a main combustion stage gas fuel channel, a main combustion stage liquid fuel channel and a pre-combustion stage gas fuel channel between the pre-combustion stage cyclone structure and the main combustion stage cyclone structure of the cyclone, and a pre-combustion stage gas fuel nozzle is provided on the pre-combustion stage cyclone structure so that the pre-combustion stage gas fuel nozzle is connected with the pre-combustion stage gas fuel channel; and a main combustion stage gas fuel nozzle and a main combustion stage liquid fuel nozzle are provided on the main combustion stage cyclone structure so that the main combustion stage gas fuel nozzle is connected with the main combustion stage gas fuel channel, and the main combustion stage liquid fuel nozzle is connected with the main combustion stage liquid fuel channel; the use of such independently arranged two-stage dual-fuel channels can realize the joint combustion of gas fuel and liquid fuel to improve combustion efficiency and reduce carbon emissions; at the same time, the staged supply and zoned combustion mode of gas fuel and liquid fuel can make the two-stage dual fuels separately regulated to realize free mixing, thereby realizing uniform and efficient combustion under the condition of optimal mixing ratio.
