Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of gas turbine engines, and relates to engine ventilation and cooling flow path design technology, and in particular to a flow path system for coupling bearing cavity axial ventilation with turbine disc cavity ventilation. Background Art
[0002] Gas turbine engines usually draw air from the appropriate position of the compressor to establish a lubricating oil sealing environment with pressure and temperature that meet the requirements in the peripheral chamber of the bearing sealing device to prevent the lubricating oil from leaking from the bearing cavity sealing assembly to the engine disc cavity and protect the bearings and lubricating oil from damage by the high-temperature gas environment.
[0003] While effectively sealing the lubricating oil in the bearing cavity, it is inevitable that a certain amount of air will enter the bearing cavity from the gap between the sealing structures and mix with the lubricating oil to form an oil-air mixture. The presence of bubbles in the oil-air mixture in the bearing cavity will lead to a decrease in the bearing lubrication effect, an increase in the lubricating oil pressure in the bearing cavity, and a decrease in the sealing margin. Excessive air in the bearing cavity will lead to increased bearing wear and lubricating oil leakage, which seriously threatens the safe and reliable operation of the engine. Therefore, a ventilation system needs to be designed to ensure that the pressure in the bearing cavity meets the requirements.
[0004] Existing gas turbine engine oil system ventilation design Figure 1 As shown, the hollow engine shaft 101 is usually used to realize axial ventilation. Compared with the throttling ventilation and free ventilation systems, the axial ventilation can save external ventilation pipes, centrifugal ventilators and other accessories, which has a positive effect on reducing the weight and cost of the engine. However, the axial ventilation flow path A is usually designed as an independent flow path, and its exhaust outlet is set at the engine tail cone 105. When the oil-gas mixture in the bearing cavity flows through the tail cone cavity 28 surrounded by the baffle 102, the center cone 103 and the engine tail cone 105, it is easy to cause the lubricating oil to coke and catch fire in the tail cone cavity 28 due to the radiation of the high-temperature combustion gas heat B between the center cone 103 and the inner nozzle 104 and the heat conduction of the center cone 103; at the same time, the outlet of the independent axial ventilation flow path is located at the engine tail cone outlet, and the pressure fluctuation is large due to the influence of the unsteady mainstream of the nozzle outlet, resulting in a large error in the flow path design result, so that the actual ventilation flow path does not meet the design requirements and there is a problem of poor ventilation effect. Summary of the invention
[0005] In order to solve the technical problems of the existing axial ventilation system that lubricating oil is easily coked and ignited in the tail cavity and the ventilation effect is poor, the present invention discloses a flow path system for coupling the axial ventilation of the bearing cavity with the ventilation of the turbine disc cavity, and the flow path system comprises: A compressor shaft, one end of which is sleeved on the fan shaft, and the other end of which is sleeved on the turbine shaft; A front bearing cavity and a rear bearing cavity, wherein the front bearing cavity is surrounded by an intermediate casing, a fan shaft and the front end of the compressor shaft, and the rear bearing cavity is surrounded by a combustion chamber casing, a turbine shaft and the rear end of the compressor shaft, the front bearing cavity is communicated with the axial flow path of the fan shaft, and the rear bearing cavity is communicated with the axial flow path of the turbine shaft, an oil ventilation pipe is provided at the end of the axial flow path of the turbine shaft along the airflow direction, and the hollow axial inner wall of the compressor shaft, the hollow axial inner wall of the fan shaft, the hollow axial inner wall of the turbine shaft and the inner wall of the oil ventilation pipe form the axial ventilation flow path of the bearing cavity; The turbine shaft end journal, the outer wall of the lubricating oil ventilation pipe and the turbine wheel disk form a turbine disk center ventilation flow path.

[0008] Furthermore, a vent hole is provided on the shaft neck at the end of the turbine shaft, and cooling air flows into the turbine disk center ventilation flow path through the vent hole.

[0010] Furthermore, a concave cavity is provided at a low radius on the front side of the second-stage turbine disc.
[0011] Furthermore, the lubricating oil ventilation pipe includes a front straight pipe, a middle tapered pipe and a rear straight pipe, the diameter of the front straight pipe is larger than the diameter of the rear straight pipe, thereby forming a tapered circular pipe structure along the airflow direction.
[0012] Furthermore, the front section straight pipe is located near the axis center of the front end of the turbine shaft end journal, and the rear section straight pipe is located at the axis center position below the center of the turbine wheel.
[0013] Furthermore, a disc-shaped air guide wheel is provided between the second-stage turbine disk and the tail cone cavity of the turbine disk.

[0014] Furthermore, an axial gap is provided between the end of the lubricating oil ventilation pipe and the guide wheel, and the cooling air entering the turbine disc center ventilation flow path guides the oil-gas mixture in the bearing cavity axial ventilation flow path out through the axial gap and mixes it.

At the same time, after the two flow paths of different systems are coupled, the excellent ventilation effect can save components such as oil-gas separators and external ventilation pipes, and contribute to engine weight reduction and cost reduction.

[0024] An embodiment of the present invention discloses a flow path system that couples the axial ventilation of a bearing cavity with the ventilation of a turbine disk cavity. The flow path system can solve the technical problems that the axial ventilation of the bearing cavity is easily exhausted from the tail cavity 28 of the tail cone and lubricating oil is easily coked and ignited, and the poor ventilation effect leads to a large consumption of lubricating oil. The flow path system mainly includes a front bearing cavity 1, a rear bearing cavity 2, a bearing cavity axial ventilation flow path 100 connecting the front bearing cavity 1 and the rear bearing cavity 2, and a turbine disk center ventilation flow path 200.
[0025] Specifically, see Figure 2 As shown, the flow path system includes a compressor shaft 14, a front bearing cavity 1 and a rear bearing cavity 2. The fan shaft 3, the turbine shaft 4 and the compressor shaft 14 are all hollow structures (i.e., the shaft center is hollow and has a flow path), and the outer diameter of the end of the fan shaft 3 and the outer diameter of the front end of the turbine shaft 4 are both smaller than the inner diameter of the front end of the compressor shaft 14, so that the rear end of the fan shaft 3 is sleeved on the front end of the compressor shaft 14, and the front end of the turbine shaft 4 is sleeved on the end of the compressor shaft 14.
[0026] The front bearing cavity 1 is surrounded by the intermediate casing 10, the fan shaft 3 and the front end of the compressor shaft 14, and the rear bearing cavity 2 is surrounded by the combustion chamber casing 18, the turbine shaft 4 and the rear end of the compressor shaft 14. The front bearing cavity 1 is connected to the fan shaft axial flow path, and the rear bearing cavity 2 is connected to the turbine shaft axial flow path. The end of the turbine shaft axial flow path along the airflow direction is provided with a lubricating oil ventilation pipe 26, and the inner wall of the compressor shaft axial inner wall, the fan shaft axial inner wall, the turbine shaft axial inner wall and the inner wall of the lubricating oil ventilation pipe 26 form a bearing cavity axial ventilation flow path 100.
[0027] Among them, see Figure 2 As shown, the turbine shaft end journal 43, the outer wall of the lubricating oil ventilation pipe 26, and the turbine wheel form a turbine wheel center ventilation flow path 200, and the oil-gas mixture of the bearing cavity axis ventilation flow path 100 is mixed with the cooling air of the turbine wheel center ventilation flow path 200 and discharged into the main flow channel.
[0028] Further, see Figure 2 As shown, the fan shaft 3 is provided with a first through hole 31, which penetrates the fan shaft 3 in a radial direction to connect the front bearing cavity 1 with the fan shaft axial flow path; the turbine shaft 4 is provided with a second through hole 41, which penetrates the turbine shaft 4 in a radial direction to connect the rear bearing cavity 2 with the turbine shaft axial flow path, and the axis of the fan shaft 3, the turbine shaft 4 and the compressor shaft 14 coincide. In specific implementation, the number, diameter and position of the first through hole 31 and the second through hole 41 can be designed according to requirements, for example, the diameter of the first through hole 31 can be set to 8mm, the diameter of the second through hole 41 can be set to 5mm, and the number thereof can be set to one or more in the circumferential direction, the position of the first through hole 31 can be set at the front end position, and the second through hole 41 can be set to the middle section.
[0029] Furthermore, a pivot bearing seat, a pivot bearing and a pivot sealing assembly are provided between the compressor shaft 14 and the intermediate casing 10 and the combustion chamber casing 18. Figure 2 As shown, a second fulcrum bearing seat 11, a second fulcrum bearing 12 and a second fulcrum sealing assembly 13 are provided between the front end of the compressor shaft 14 and the intermediate casing 10, and a third fulcrum bearing seat 16, a third fulcrum bearing 17 and a third fulcrum sealing assembly 15 are provided between the rear end of the compressor shaft 14 and the front end of the combustion chamber casing 18. At the same time, a first fulcrum sealing assembly 7, a first fulcrum bearing 8 and a first fulcrum bearing seat 9 are provided between the front end of the intermediate casing 10 and the front end of the fan shaft 3, and the front end of the fan shaft 3 is connected to the fan disk 6 via a tension bolt 5. At the same time, a fourth fulcrum bearing seat 19, a fourth fulcrum bearing 20 and a fourth fulcrum sealing assembly 21 are provided between the rear end of the combustion chamber casing 18 and the rear end of the turbine shaft 4.
[0030] Further, see Figure 2 As shown, a vent hole 42 is provided on the end journal 43 of the turbine shaft, and cooling air flows into the turbine disk center ventilation flow path through the vent hole 42. The turbine wheel comprises a first-stage turbine disk 22 and a second-stage turbine disk 24, a spacer ring 23 is provided between the first-stage turbine disk 22 and the second-stage turbine disk 24, and a rotating cavity 27 is formed between the first-stage turbine disk 22, the second-stage turbine disk 24 and the spacer ring 23, and the rotating cavity 27 is communicated with the turbine disk center ventilation flow path.
[0031] During specific implementation, the cooling air in the turbine disk center ventilation flow path 200 flows into the turbine disk cavity through the vent hole 42 on the journal 43 at the end of the turbine shaft, and then a part of the cooling air enters the rotating cavity 27 formed by the first-stage turbine disk 22, the spacer ring 23, and the second-stage turbine disk 24 under the centrifugal action caused by the rotation of the turbine disk. Under the action of the second-stage turbine disk 24, the cooling air in the rotating cavity 27 forms a larger vortex at the low radius of the rotating cavity; the other part of the cooling air is affected by the vortex at the low radius of the cavity, the actual flow area is reduced, the flow rate is accelerated, and it continues to flow backward along the center of the second-stage turbine disk 24. The oil-gas mixture in the lubricating oil ventilation pipe 26 is sucked out by the ejection effect at the outlet of the center of the second-stage turbine disk 24. After the cooling air is mixed with the oil-gas mixture and cooled, it flows to a high radius under the pressure difference and centrifugal action, and is finally discharged into the main channel through the low-temperature cavity area between the second-stage turbine disk 24 and the guide wheel 25.
[0032] In an improved embodiment, see Figure 2 As shown, a concave cavity 29 is provided at a low radius on the front side of the second-stage turbine disk 24. The airflow in the rotating cavity 27 forms a relatively large vortex under the disturbance of the concave cavity 29, squeezing the actual flow area of the center of the second-stage turbine disk 24. The flow area of the center of the turbine disk decreases along the flow direction of the airflow, and the actual flow channel is a contraction type, which accelerates the flow of the airflow at the center of the disk.
[0033] Further, see Figure 2 As shown, the lubricating oil ventilation pipe 26 includes a front straight pipe, a middle tapered pipe and a rear straight pipe, the diameter of the front straight pipe is larger than the diameter of the rear straight pipe, thereby forming a tapered circular pipe structure along the airflow direction. Specifically, the front straight pipe is located near the axis of the front end of the turbine shaft end journal 43, and the rear straight pipe is located at the axis position below the center of the turbine wheel.
[0034] Further, see Figure 2 As shown, a disc-shaped air guide wheel 25 is provided between the second-stage turbine disk 24 and the tail cone cavity 28 of the turbine disk. The radial middle section of the air guide wheel 25 is connected to the second-stage turbine disk 24 by circumferentially distributed bolts. The air guide wheel 25 can separate the tail cone cavity 28 from the bearing cavity axial ventilation flow path 100 and the turbine disk center ventilation flow path 200 at its front end to prevent the gas of the two flow paths from flowing into the tail cone cavity 28, so that the oil-gas mixture of the bearing cavity axial ventilation flow path 100 and the cooling air of the turbine disk center ventilation flow path 200 are mixed at the root of the front side of the air guide wheel 25 and then radially discharged into the main flow channel through the cavity between the air guide wheel 25 and the rear side of the second-stage turbine disk 24.
[0035] Furthermore, an axial gap is provided between the end of the lubricating oil ventilation pipe 26 and the guide wheel 25, and the cooling air entering the turbine disc center ventilation flow path guides the oil-gas mixture in the bearing cavity axial ventilation flow path out through the axial gap and mixes it.
[0036] When the above-mentioned flow path system is used, the fan shaft 3 and the turbine shaft 4 rotating at the same speed and high speed separate the air containing a small amount of lubricating oil in the front bearing cavity 1 and the rear bearing cavity 2 into the bearing cavity axial ventilation flow path 100 of the fan shaft 3, the compressor shaft 14 and the turbine shaft 4 through the first through hole 31 and the second through hole 41 respectively during operation; under the vortex extrusion at the low radius of the rotating cavity 27, the actual flow channel of the turbine disc center shrinks along the flow direction of the airflow, and the high-speed cooling air flowing in the turbine disc center ventilation flow path 200 guides and sucks the low-speed oil-gas mixture flowing in the bearing cavity axial ventilation flow path 100 to the outlet of the lubricating oil ventilation pipe 26 through momentum exchange at the end of the flow path. At this time, the two flow paths with different speeds, media and functions are coupled together, mixed and cooled, and then flow to the high radius under the pressure difference and centrifugal action, and finally discharged into the main flow channel through the low-temperature cavity area between the second-stage turbine disc 24 and the guide wheel 25, so as to achieve the purge cooling of the turbine disc cavity and the lubricating oil ventilation of the bearing cavity at the same time.
[0037] The flow path system of the present invention can effectively improve the ventilation effect of the axis of the bearing cavity. The air in the ventilation flow path of the turbine disk center is used to induce the oil-gas mixture in the ventilation flow path of the bearing cavity axis. After the cooling air is mixed with the oil-gas mixture for cooling, it is discharged into the main flow channel through the low-temperature zone under the pressure difference and the centrifugal action of the turbine disk and the guide wheel, thereby preventing the medium containing the oil-gas mixture from flowing through the high-temperature zone of the tail cavity, thereby solving the problems of lubricating oil coking and ignition.
[0038] Compared with the existing ventilation structure, the structure of the present invention is simple and the coupling design of the flow path system can realize different functions and has flexible adjustment methods. Through the flow path system that couples the bearing cavity axial ventilation and the turbine disk center ventilation, the high-speed turbine disk center flow draws the low-speed oil-gas mixture out from the axis through the induced suction effect, and after being fully mixed with the cooling air and cooled, it flows into the main channel through the low-temperature zone under the pressure difference and the centrifugal action of the turbine disk and the guide wheel, which not only effectively solves the problems of lubricating oil coking and ignition, but also improves the bearing cavity ventilation effect and solves the problem of large lubricating oil consumption. At the same time, after the two flow paths of different systems are coupled, the excellent ventilation effect can save components such as oil-gas separators and external ventilation pipes, and contribute to engine weight reduction and cost reduction.
