Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of aero engines and gas turbines, and in particular relates to a method for quickly evaluating the consistency of a guide flow area. Background Art

[0002] The effective flow area of ​​the guide vanes of modern aircraft engines and gas turbines is an important factor affecting parameters such as engine flow, speed, surge margin, exhaust temperature, etc., and needs to be strictly controlled during the design, manufacturing and assembly of the engine. However, due to the complex three-dimensional spatial structure of the guide vanes, the large-scale measurement of the effective flow area of ​​mass-produced guide vanes and the consistency evaluation face multiple challenges in terms of detection speed, detection efficiency, and detection accuracy.

[0003] The technologies that are closest to the present invention in the existing implementation schemes include:

[0004] 1. Water flow method. This method calculates the area of ​​the guide being tested by measuring the time it takes for water of the same flow rate to pass through the standard guide and the guide being tested. The main steps include: 1. Obtaining the measurement data of the standard guide and determining it as the standard measurement data; 2. Obtaining the liquid level height information and water pressure information in the water storage tank, and adjusting them to meet the preset test conditions; 3. Opening the valve group to allow water of a preset flow rate to pass through the guide being tested, and obtaining the time required for the water to flow through the guide being tested; 4. Determining the exhaust area of ​​the guide being tested based on the time it takes for water to pass through, the preset flow rate of water, and the standard measurement data.

[0005] 2. Geometric measurement method. This method determines the effective flow area of ​​the guide by scanning the throat geometric window in the guide flow channel. The main steps include: 1. Determine the throat section of the guide; 2. Control the scanning equipment to scan the throat section to obtain the scanning section; 3. Construct a quadrilateral based on the four vertices of the scanning section, and obtain the area defined by the scanning trajectory line between each side of the quadrilateral and the corresponding two adjacent vertices; 4. Calculate the area of ​​the throat section based on the area of ​​the quadrilateral and the area defined by the scanning trajectory line between each side of the quadrilateral and the corresponding two adjacent vertices.

[0006] 3. Cavitation test method. This method measures the reference throat area of ​​the standard guide and the guide to be tested in the cavitation state and the effective throat area of ​​the standard guide in the hot test state to measure the effective flow area of ​​the guide to be tested. The main steps include: 1. Using the first fluid as the medium, obtain the first reference throat area of ​​the first guide in the cavitation state; 2. Using the second fluid as the medium, obtain the first effective throat area of ​​the first guide in the hot test state, and obtain the ratio a of the first reference throat area to the first effective throat area by calculation; 3. Using the first fluid as the medium, obtain the second reference throat area of ​​the second guide in the cavitation state; 4. According to the ratio a and the second reference throat area, directly calculate the second effective throat area of ​​the second guide in the hot test state with the second fluid.

[0007] Among them, the water flow method requires the required standard guide data to be obtained in advance. The throttling device with a large flow area has high energy consumption and a long test preparation time. The test piece needs to be dried after the test. The geometric method measures the geometric size of the throat section instead of the actual effective flow area, which has accuracy problems and requires scanning all channels of the guide, which takes a long time for a single machine. The cavitation test method requires the test conditions to reach the critical state of the guide, which has high energy consumption, high test conditions, and a long preparation time.

[0008] Therefore, how to reduce energy consumption and measurement cycle is a problem that needs to be solved. Summary of the invention

[0048] like Figure 1 , the specific steps are as follows:

[0049] Step S100, estimating the effective flow area A0 of the guide to be tested, and preparing a small group of ASME nozzles and a large group of ASME nozzles, a total of 2 ASME nozzles.

[0050] Among them, the small group ASME nozzle is an ASME nozzle with a geometric area A1 of 0.5A0<A1<1.0A0, and the large group ASME nozzle is an ASME nozzle with a geometric area A2 of 1.0A0<A2<1.5A0.

[0051] Step S200, establish a test system, such as Figure 2 , including: setting a pressure stabilizing cavity in front of the small group of ASME nozzles, setting a rectifying grid in front of the pressure stabilizing cavity, setting a fan in front of the rectifying grid, and setting several thermometers and differential pressure gauges in the pressure stabilizing cavity. The fan supplies air to the small group of ASME nozzles at a low speed until a set constant pressure difference is generated between the pressure stabilizing cavity and the ambient atmosphere. , constant pressure difference Obtained by the differential pressure gauge, and make the maximum Mach number in the ASME nozzle of the group lower than the set value, record the first fan speed n 1 and first flow m 1. In this process, the airflow blown out by the fan is rectified through the rectifier grid to ensure the stability of the airflow. According to the reading of the thermometer in the pressure-stabilizing cavity, the first air viscosity is obtained by looking up the table , and according to the first air viscosity Calculate the first Reynolds number Re1.

[0052] Preferably, a constant pressure difference It is 100Pa to 1000Pa; the setting value of the maximum Mach number is 0.2.

[0053] Preferably, the first Reynolds number Re1 is calculated as: .

[0054] Preferably, the rectifier grid should have an appropriate axial length so that the air supply upstream of the pressure-stabilizing cavity is stable, uniform, and free of large-scale vortices; the size of the vortex is judged by the fluctuation of the differential pressure gauge, and a standard value of the fluctuation amount is set; when the vortex size is larger than the standard value of the fluctuation amount, a step amount is set, and the axial length or grid thickness of the rectifier grid is increased according to the step amount, and the test is carried out again until the rectifier grid requirements that meet the standard value of the fluctuation amount are obtained.

[0062] Preferably, before supplying air at low speed to the mass-produced guides to be tested, a sealing test is performed on the mating surface between the mass-produced guides to be tested and the measuring equipment to ensure that all air supply enters only from the air inlet and is discharged into the atmosphere only from the turbine guide / long-neck nozzle to ensure the accuracy of the test.

[0063] Step S700: the effective flow area of ​​the guide to be tested in batches Compare with the effective flow area of ​​the standard guide to complete the consistency evaluation of the effective flow area of ​​batch-produced guides.
