Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of gas turbine monitoring, and in particular to a real-time monitoring system for gas turbine combustion chamber components. Background Art

[0002] During the long-term operation of a gas turbine, the structural reliability mainly depends on the reliable operation of its hot end components. As an important part of the Brayton cycle of the gas turbine, the combustion chamber of the gas turbine fully burns the fuel in the combustion chamber space when the gas turbine is running, converts the chemical energy of the fuel into thermal energy, and increases the temperature of the gas working fluid. As the core component of the combustion chamber, the combustion chamber nozzle directly determines the performance and reliability of the combustion chamber. The ablation of the nozzle can often directly lead to the destruction of the flame organization in the combustion chamber, and the temperature field of the combustion chamber outlet section deviates from the design conditions. Along with the sharp deterioration of performance, it causes severe thermal shock to the flame tube, transition section, and turbine structure downstream of the combustion chamber, shortening the maintenance interval of the gas turbine and increasing maintenance costs.

[0003] After investigation, it is found that the existing inspection of the status of the combustion chamber nozzle components often needs to be carried out after the engine is shut down, by disassembling the engine or by borehole exploration. It is impossible to achieve online real-time monitoring of the working status of the combustion chamber nozzle, and it is also impossible to avoid the further damage to the engine structure caused by the nozzle being burned during the operation of the engine. When severe burning occurs, only the protection and control measures of the engine can be used, which cannot achieve the purpose of early warning and early prevention. Therefore, it is urgent to propose a solution that can monitor and warn gas turbines in real time. Summary of the invention

[0037] A real-time monitoring system for gas turbine combustion chamber components according to an embodiment of the present application is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0038] Embodiment 1

[0039] Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a structural diagram of a real-time monitoring system for gas turbine combustion chamber components provided according to an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the system includes: an infrared photoelectric detection unit 1, an optical fiber transmission subsystem 2, a photoelectric converter 3, and a signal acquisition and processing subsystem 4;

[0040] The infrared photoelectric detection unit 1 is used to collect infrared radiation signals of the gas turbine target object;

[0041] The optical fiber transmission subsystem 2 is used to process the infrared radiation signal to obtain an infrared radiation signal of a preset frequency band, and send the infrared radiation signal of the preset frequency band to the photoelectric converter 3;

[0042] The photoelectric converter 3 is used to convert the infrared radiation signal of the preset frequency band into an electrical signal, and amplify the electrical signal to obtain high-frequency signal data after amplification;

[0043] The signal acquisition and processing subsystem 4 is used to analyze and process the high-frequency signal data to obtain the temperature data of the gas turbine target object;

[0044] Wherein, the gas turbine target objects include: turbine blades and nozzles.

[0045] It should be noted that Figure 1 It is only an illustration of the real-time monitoring system for the gas turbine combustion chamber nozzle of the present application and does not limit the structure of the present invention.

[0046] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, Figure 2 As shown, the real-time monitoring system further includes: a cooling and sweeping subsystem 5;

[0047] The cooling and sweeping subsystem 5 is arranged between the infrared photoelectric detection unit 1 and the optical fiber transmission subsystem 2;

[0048] The cooling and purging subsystem 5 is used to perform gas cooling on the infrared photoelectric detection unit and to purge the infrared photoelectric detection unit in real time.

[0049] It should be noted that the infrared photoelectric detection unit 1 includes: a probe and a reflective lens.

[0050] The radiation energy of the target object can be collected by using the probe of the infrared photoelectric detection unit 1 and the reflective lens at the bottom.

[0051] Furthermore, the cooling and purging subsystem 5 is used to perform gas cooling on the probe of the infrared photoelectric detection unit 1 and to purge the probe of the infrared photoelectric detection unit in real time.

[0052] It should be noted that the cooling and purge subsystem 5 can be used to perform gas cooling on the infrared probe, reduce the probe temperature, and improve the harsh environment in the gas flow channel of the gas turbine where the high-temperature probe is located. At the same time, clean air is used to purge the probe in real time to ensure the cleanliness of the probe, prevent it from being attached by pollutants in the gas flow channel of the gas turbine, and ensure detection accuracy.

[0053] In the disclosed embodiment, the optical fiber transmission subsystem 2 is further used to perform shunting and screening processing on the infrared radiation signal based on a preset target range frequency band to obtain an infrared radiation signal of a preset frequency band.

[0054] It should be noted that optical fibers of different materials and structures have different response characteristics to optical signals of different wavelengths. The optical fiber transmission system needs to be designed to filter out light waves in the target frequency range to obtain better transmission effects.

[0055] It should be noted that the photoelectric converter includes: a signal amplifier;

[0056] The signal amplifier is used to amplify the infrared radiation signal in the preset frequency band.

[0057] It should be noted that, through the signal amplifier, the infrared radiation signal of the preset frequency band is processed into a data source that can be used for subsequent signal acquisition and processing system analysis.

[0058] In the disclosed embodiment, the signal acquisition and processing subsystem 4 is further used to determine the temperature data corresponding to the high-frequency signal data based on the relationship between the pre-calibrated frequency band and temperature, and use the temperature data as the temperature data of the gas turbine target object.

[0059] It should be noted that the physical temperature value is restored by using the relationship between infrared radiation and temperature that has been calibrated in advance.

[0060] Furthermore, the signal acquisition and processing subsystem 4 is also used to obtain the operating speed of the gas turbine and establish a corresponding relationship between the high-frequency signal data and the operating speed;

[0061] The signal acquisition and processing subsystem 4 is further used to determine the actual position of the target object corresponding to the temperature data based on the corresponding relationship between the high-frequency signal data and the operating speed.

[0062] It should be noted that, in combination with the rotation information of the engine turbine components (wherein the operating speed of the engine, i.e. the rotation speed of the turbine blades, belongs to the operating data of the engine), the obtained temperature signal is matched with the actual position of the target object (through the pre-established relationship between the scanning frequency and the rotation speed of the engine blades, the measured abnormal temperature signal is aligned with the specific actual position of the engine turbine blades), so as to restore the real-time data of the surface temperature of the target object.

[0063] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, Figure 3 As shown, the real-time monitoring system also includes: an early warning module 6;

[0064] The warning module 6 is used to issue an audible and visual warning when the temperature data is greater than a preset temperature threshold.
