Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of combustion chambers, and in particular to a four-claw anti-vibration ring device, a combustion chamber and a gas turbine. Background Art

[0002] Gas turbines are one of the important equipment in today's energy and power field, and are widely used in aviation, navigation and power generation industries. Among them, the gas turbine combustion chamber is the core component and power source of the entire gas turbine. However, with increasingly stringent pollutant emission requirements, in order to reduce pollutant emissions mainly composed of nitrogen oxides (NOx), advanced gas turbine combustion chambers mostly use lean oil premixed combustion technology. The combustion chamber often operates in a working state close to flameout, which is very sensitive to external disturbances and easily affected by external disturbances, resulting in heat release rate pulsation. When the heat release rate pulsation in the burner is coupled with the acoustics of the combustion system, it is easy to cause large heat release rate pulsation and pressure pulsation. The large pressure pulsation and heat release pulsation in the combustion chamber may cause structural damage to the combustion chamber, which may affect the stable operation and safe operation of the combustion chamber and even the gas turbine system. Therefore, overcoming combustion oscillation is an urgent problem to be solved.

[0003] like Figure 1 As shown, the rectangular combustion chamber in the prior art generally includes a swirl shell 10, a center body 20, a swirler 30 and a flame tube 40, wherein the center body 20 and the swirler 30 are arranged in the swirl shell 10, and a swirl flow annular cavity channel 50 is formed on the inner side of the swirl shell 10, and the end wall 60 of the flame tube 40 facing the swirl shell 10 is a flat plate, which may cause the problem of combustion oscillation. In order to solve the problem of combustion oscillation in the combustion chamber of a gas turbine, it is generally divided into active control and passive control. Active control is to use a special signal monitor to monitor the pressure pulsation or heat release pulsation in the combustion chamber, and according to the pressure pulsation and other signals monitored in the combustion chamber, a suitable external excitation (to the inlet air or fuel supply, etc.) is applied through the corresponding actuator to suppress or eliminate the coupling between the heat release rate pulsation and the pressure oscillation (sound wave). However, this type of method requires an additional control system and an actuator, and has high requirements for the control algorithm, which will increase additional costs and has limited applicable scenarios.

[0004] Passive control refers to adding certain fixed devices to the combustion system to suppress or eliminate combustion oscillations. Common types of acoustic components, such as Helmholtz resonators, can suppress combustion oscillations of specific frequencies. The disadvantage is that they are large in size, are only effective for specific frequencies, and require a lot of experiments and debugging. Summary of the invention

In addition, the terms "first", "second", and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0032] Combine the following Figure 2-9 The four-claw anti-vibration ring device provided by the present invention is described, which is used for a rectangular combustion chamber. The combustion chamber includes a swirl shell 1, a center body 2, a swirler 3 and a flame tube 4. The center body 2 and the swirler 3 are arranged in the swirl shell 1. Under the action of the swirler 3, a swirl flow annular cavity channel 5 is formed on the inner side of the swirl shell 1. The four-claw anti-vibration ring device 6 is used to connect the swirl flow annular cavity channel 5 and the flame tube 4.

[0033] The four-claw anti-vibration ring device 6 is arranged on the end wall of the flame tube 4 close to the swirl flow annular channel 5, and includes a connecting ring 61 and an anti-vibration ring 62. The connecting ring 61 is connected to the swirl outer shell 1. One end of the anti-vibration ring 62 is connected to the connecting ring 61, and the other end is in contact with the inner wall of the flame tube 4. The setting of the anti-vibration ring 62 can completely eliminate the angular vortex area of ​​heat release pulsation in the combustion chamber, thereby realizing the regulation of combustion oscillation and enhancing the flame stabilization ability.

[0034] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in a feasible embodiment of the present invention, the central section of the anti-vibration ring 62 adopts a linear expansion form, wherein the expansion angle is α; the axial length of the central section of the anti-vibration ring is L1, and the height of the central section of the anti-vibration ring is h, then , , H and W are the height and width of the flame tube respectively; r is the inner diameter length of the connecting ring; the total length of the expansion section of the anti-vibration ring is L2, ; Among them, 0≤α≤90°, 1≤H / r≤3; 1≤W / r≤3.

[0035] like Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in a feasible embodiment of the present invention, the central cross section of the vibration-proof ring 62 adopts a curve expansion form, and the central curve is constructed by adopting a reverse Witosinski curve. ,in, is the outlet radius of the curved surface, is the entrance radius of the curved surface, and , L is , where L2 size is related to the flame tube height and the width of the flame tube Related, and satisfy the corresponding relationship: .

[0036] in, The dimensions are related to the swirl flow at the head of the combustion chamber. Different sizes are used for different flame tube structures. In a feasible embodiment of the present invention, the central cross-section of the anti-vibration ring 62 adopts a curve expansion form, and the central curve is constructed using a bicubic curve and has the same size relationship.

[0037] The present invention achieves complete elimination of corner vortices in the combustion chamber by providing an anti-vibration ring 62 with a protruding tip and combining anti-vibration rings 62 with different central profile curve forms, thereby weakening heat release pulsation in the combustion chamber and achieving the purpose of regulating and weakening combustion oscillations.

[0038] like Fig. 9 As shown, the starting point of the anti-vibration ring 62 can be the outlet of the cyclone and develop downstream, or it can be a starting point at a certain distance upstream of the outlet and then develop downstream to form a four-claw anti-vibration ring device that completely eliminates the corner vortex. In a feasible embodiment of the present invention, the distance from the starting point of the anti-vibration ring 62 to the outlet of the swirl annular cavity channel 5 is P, and 0≤P / L1≤0.5. By adjusting the relative position of the head of the swirl shell 1 and the end wall structure of the anti-vibration ring 62, the flame stabilization ability is further enhanced and the combustion oscillation is weakened.

[0039] In a feasible embodiment of the present invention, the anti-vibration ring 62 has a tip structure, and the tip structure is located at the corner of the flame tube 4, which further weakens the heat release pulsation in the combustion chamber and changes the swirl flow in the swirl flow annular channel 5, thereby achieving the purpose of regulating the combustion oscillation in the combustion chamber.

[0040] In a feasible embodiment of the present invention, the anti-vibration ring 62 is a symmetrical structure to adapt to a rectangular combustion chamber.

[0041] The second aspect of the present invention provides a combustion chamber, including a swirl shell 1, a center body 2, a swirler 3, a flame tube 4 and the above-mentioned four-claw anti-vibration ring device 6, the center body 2 and the swirler 3 are arranged in the swirl shell 1, under the action of the swirler 3, a swirl flow annular channel 5 is formed on the inner side of the swirl shell 1, and the swirl flow annular channel 5 is connected to the flame tube 4, and the four-claw anti-vibration ring device 6 is arranged on the end wall of the flame tube 4 close to the center body.

[0042] A third aspect of the present invention provides a gas turbine, comprising the four-claw anti-vibration ring device 6 as described above or the combustion chamber as described above.

[0043] According to the gas turbine provided by the present invention, the gas turbine includes an aircraft engine or a gas turbine. Since it includes the four-claw anti-vibration ring device as described above, it can also completely eliminate the corner vortex in the combustion chamber, thereby weakening the heat release pulsation in the combustion chamber and realizing the regulation of combustion oscillations.

[0044] In summary, the present invention provides a four-claw anti-vibration ring device, a combustion chamber and a gas turbine. By arranging an anti-vibration ring 62 with a tip structure in different curved surface forms upstream of the combustion chamber, the angular vortex structure in the rectangular combustion chamber can be completely eliminated, and the heat release pulsation in the combustion chamber can be weakened, thereby achieving the purpose of weakening the combustion oscillation. Moreover, the structure does not increase the structure and weight of the combustion chamber, and can even reduce the local weight of the combustion chamber, while weakening the combustion oscillation in the combustion chamber.
