Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of gas generator test benches, in particular to a rotary gas generator combustion test system. Background Art

[0002] In aircraft engines, turbine blades are considered the most critical components, situated in the harshest environments. Their performance, particularly their temperature tolerance, is a crucial indicator of the engine's sophistication. As the engine's thrust-to-weight ratio increases, the temperature in front of the turbine increases. For hypersonic vehicles, higher flight Mach numbers mean higher total inflow temperatures, easily exceeding the turbine's temperature tolerance. At this point, the combustion chamber struggles to add heat, disrupting the thermodynamic cycle. Furthermore, designing a cooling structure for the turbine is a highly challenging task, requiring comprehensive consideration of multiple factors, including heat load, material properties, manufacturing processes, and flow characteristics, to ensure blade reliability and lifespan while increasing turbine inlet temperatures. A rotary gas generator (RGG) is a simple and reliable rotary combustion device capable of simultaneously delivering shaft power and thrust. It can replace the turbine, fundamentally resolving the severe constraint on thermodynamic cycle efficiency caused by the turbine's temperature tolerance in existing aircraft engines. Its simple and reliable structure also facilitates the design of cooling structures, thereby improving combustion efficiency. As a brand-new technology, the design and performance optimization of the rotary gas generator are crucial. Therefore, an experimental system is needed to simulate the combustion performance of the rotary gas generator at different flow rates and equivalence ratios, providing experimental data support for the design and optimization of the rotary gas generator.

[0003] Traditional gas generator designs typically employ static structures, making it difficult to achieve stable combustion at high rotational speeds. Static gas generator test benches are relatively simple to design and do not require consideration of the complexities caused by rotation. However, rotating gas generator test benches present a host of design and operational challenges compared to stationary gas generator test benches. First, rotating gas generators require precise dynamic balancing to prevent excessive vibration during high-speed rotation, which could damage the equipment or affect experimental results. Second, during rotation, the gas generator and gas supply lines must be sealed from the external environment to prevent gas leakage. Stable connections between the rotating gas generator and other systems must also be ensured. Furthermore, the centrifugal force generated by high-speed rotation can affect the flow characteristics, mixing, and combustion process of the gases within the combustion chamber, requiring specific attention. Furthermore, during rotation, controlling the combustion process (e.g., ignition and combustion stability) becomes more difficult. For example, after ignition, the igniter must be able to disengage promptly to prevent interference with the rotating gas generator, potentially leading to experimental failure and safety issues. In view of these difficulties, when designing and operating a rotary gas generator test bench, it is necessary to comprehensively consider knowledge from multiple disciplines such as mechanics, thermodynamics, and fluid mechanics, and adopt corresponding technical measures to overcome these challenges.

[0004] The existing rotating gas generator combustion process often lacks precise control means, resulting in low combustion efficiency, and affecting the stability and safety of the entire system. In addition, due to the lack of effective experimental systems to simulate and test the performance of rotating gas generators under different working conditions, the in-depth study of their design and optimization is limited. Therefore, developing a combustion experimental system and combustion control method that can accurately measure and control the key performance parameters (such as rotational speed, temperature and pressure) of the rotating gas generator under working conditions is of great significance for improving combustion efficiency, optimizing design and enhancing system reliability. SUMMARY

[0024] The application will be described in detail below according to the drawings and preferred embodiments, and the purposes and effects of the application will become more apparent, and it should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the application and do not limit the application.

[0025] As Figure 1 shown, the example of the application provides a rotating gas generator combustion experiment system, which comprises a supply system, a rotating gas generator experiment bench, an ignition system and a measurement and control system; the rotating gas generator experiment bench is connected with the supply system, the ignition system and the measurement and control system respectively;

[0026] The supply system is used for stably supplying fuel and oxidant gas for the gas generator on the rotating gas generator experiment bench, and can adjust the gas flow through a computer; the ignition system is used for igniting the rotating gas generator; the measurement and control system is used for collecting and recording parameters such as temperature, pressure and rotating speed of the rotating gas generator during work, and can adjust the gas flow and pressure through a computer to realize closed-loop control of the rotating speed of the rotating gas generator.

[0027] The rotating gas generator combustion experiment system will be further described below. Figure 2

[0028] ​The supply system comprises an air compressor 1, a valve 2, a methane gas cylinder 3, an air gas cylinder 4, a drying box 5, a valve 6, a valve 7, an air flow meter 8, a methane flow meter 9 and a premixing box 10.

[0029] The valve 2 is arranged on the pipeline connecting the air compressor 1 and the air gas cylinder 4, the valve 6 and the air flow meter 8 are arranged on the air supply pipeline connecting the drying box 5 and the premixing box 10, and the valve 7 and the methane flow meter 9 are arranged on the methane supply pipeline connecting the methane gas cylinder 3 and the premixing box 10. The compressed air is stored in the air compressor 1, and the air compressor 1 can provide an air pressure of 0-8 atm and an air flow of 0.5 kg / s. The compressed air generated by the air compressor 1 is delivered to the air gas cylinder 4 through the pipeline, and the air on-off is controlled by the valve 2 to ensure the safety of the experiment. When the valve 6 is opened, the air flows out of the air gas cylinder 4, is dried in the drying box 5, and then flows through the valve 6 and the air flow meter 8 in sequence, and then flows into the premixing box 10 to be mixed with the methane gas. The high-pressure gaseous methane is stored in the methane gas cylinder 3, and a pressure reducing valve is used to reduce the pressure during the experiment, and the valve 7 is opened, so that the gaseous methane flows out of the methane gas cylinder 3, flows through the valve 7 and the methane flow meter 9 in sequence, and then enters the premixing box 10 to be mixed with the air. The air flow meter 8 and the methane flow meter 9 can monitor the gas mass flow in the pipeline in real time and adjust the gas mass flow. The left two ends of the premixing box 10 are respectively the air and methane inlets, and the right end is the premixed gas outlet, which is connected with the dynamic and static sealing device 11 of the rotating gas generator experimental bench.

[0030] In this embodiment, the specific types of the valve 2, the valve 6 and the valve 7 are not limited, for example, they can be solenoid valves, pneumatic valves or electric valves.

[0031] Since the rotating gas generator assembly 13 rotates at high speed during work, and the premixed gas supply pipeline is static, a dynamic and static sealing device 11 is needed. The rotating gas generator experimental bench comprises a bench frame 24, and the dynamic and static sealing device 11, the rotating gas generator assembly 13, the flexible coupling 15, the air compressor assembly 17, and the bearing seat one 12, the bearing seat two 14 and the bearing seat three 16 for fixing and supporting the bearings are sequentially connected through three bearings and fixed on the bench frame 24. One end of the dynamic and static sealing device 11 is connected with the static fuel supply pipeline connected with the premixing box 10, and the other end is connected with the shaft of the rotating gas generator assembly 13 through a bearing, and rotates with the combustion chamber, and the bearing is fixed on the bench frame 24 through the bearing seat one 12. The maximum working pressure of the dynamic and static sealing device 11 is 1 MPa, the maximum flow is 1000 L / min, and the maximum rotating speed is 10000 rpm.

[0032] The rotating gas generator assembly 13 includes a rotating combustion chamber, a nozzle and a convergent nozzle. The design pressure of the rotating gas generator assembly is 1 MPa, the rotating speed is 10000 rpm, and the maximum flow rate is 30 g / s. The premixed gas of methane and air enters the rotating combustion chamber through the dynamic and static sealing device 11, is ignited by the ignition system, and the high temperature and high pressure gas generated by combustion flows in the nozzle and is accelerated and sprayed out through the convergent nozzle to drive the rotating gas generator to rotate.

[0033] The compressor assembly 17 includes a compressor impeller, a guide vane, a compressor casing, a compressor shaft, etc. The shaft of the compressor assembly 17 is connected with the shaft of the rotating gas generator assembly 13 through the flexible coupling 15, and is fixed on the experimental bench 24 through the bearing seat two 14 and the bearing seat three 16.

[0034] Figure 2 The experimental bench 24 in the above is a simplified schematic view. In fact, the experimental bench 24 is built by 80mm*80mm aluminum profiles. Since the rotating gas generator is in a high-speed rotating, high-temperature and high-pressure working environment during work, the experimental bench 24 needs to be fixed to the ground through foundation bolts, and the upper, lower, left, right and rear are blocked by 10mm steel plates to prevent danger.

[0035] The ignition system includes a quick plug ignition electrode 22 and a high-energy igniter 23. The quick plug ignition electrode 22 is connected with the high-energy igniter 23 through a cable, and is connected with the rotating gas generator through a threaded connection.

[0036] In the above, Figure 2 The quick plug ignition electrode 22 is connected with the combustion chamber side wall of the rotating gas generator assembly 13 through a threaded connection and extends into the combustion chamber, so that the electric spark generated by the ignition electrode 22 can ignite the premixed gas of methane and air in the combustion chamber when starting the high-energy igniter 23. In order to disconnect the cable from the quick plug ignition electrode 22 after igniting the premixed gas in the rotating gas generator assembly 13, a joint mode of the cable and the ignition electrode body with quick plug is developed. The ignition system has the functions of high-energy ignition and quick disconnection of the cable from the ignition electrode. After the appropriate premixed gas of methane and air is introduced into the combustion chamber, the high-energy igniter 23 is started, and after the gas in the combustion chamber is ignited, the cable is quickly disconnected from the ignition electrode 22. Then, the premixed gas flow is increased, and at this time the rotating gas generator starts to work under the driving of high temperature and high pressure gas.

[0037] The measurement and control system includes a temperature sensor 18, a pressure sensor 19, a rotating speed sensor 20, an acquisition card, a signal amplifier and a computer 21.

[0038] In the above, Figure 2In the figure, a temperature sensor 18 is located at the outlet of one of the nozzles of the rotary gas generator assembly 13, a pressure sensor 19 is located on the sidewall of the combustion chamber of the rotary gas generator assembly 13 and extends deep into the combustion chamber, and a rotation speed sensor 20 is located next to the flexible coupling 15. The temperature sensor 18 is used to measure the temperature at the nozzle outlet of the rotary gas generator assembly 13, the pressure sensor 19 is used to measure the pressure change within the combustion chamber of the rotary gas generator assembly 13, and the rotation speed sensor 20 is used to measure the rotation speed of the rotary gas generator assembly 13 during operation. A signal amplifier amplifies and filters the signals from each sensor and transmits them to an acquisition card. The acquisition card transmits the collected sensor signals to a computer 21, whose measurement and control software displays and records the information parameters of the collected sensor signals in real time. Computer 21 is also connected to the air supply pipeline and the methane supply pipeline. It can control the air flow meter 8 and the methane flow meter 9 based on the input rotation speed requirement to adjust the mass flow of the fuel and oxidizer, thereby stabilizing combustion and improving combustion efficiency, thereby achieving closed-loop control of the rotation speed of the rotary gas generator 13.

[0039] The following combination Figure 3 The rotary gas generator combustion control method is further explained.

[0040] like Figure 3 As shown, after the high-energy igniter is activated and the premixed gas is successfully ignited within the combustion chamber of the rotary gas generator assembly 13 using the quick-plug ignition nozzle 22, the rotary gas generator begins to rotate. The methane flowmeter 9 and air flowmeter 8 are manually adjusted to ensure stable combustion and rotation of the rotary gas generator at an appropriate gas flow rate. The temperature sensor 18, pressure sensor 19, and speed sensor 20 begin collecting parameter signals from the rotary gas generator during operation. The signal amplifier amplifies and filters the signals from each sensor and transmits them to an acquisition card, which then transmits the collected sensor signals to a computer. Based on the experimental requirements, a speed command is input into the measurement and control software of computer 21. The deviation between the actual speed and the command speed serves as input to the controller. The controller outputs a corrected parameter based on the speed deviation. This parameter serves as input to the measurement and control software of computer 21. The measurement and control software of computer 21 adjusts the air and methane flow rates based on the input corrected parameter, once again ensuring stable combustion and rotation of the rotary gas generator at an appropriate gas flow rate. This feedback process is repeated until the speed correction is complete, i.e., the deviation between the actual speed and the command speed is within a reasonable, configurable range.

Any modification, equivalent replacement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
