Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of rotating machinery test benches, and in particular to an adjustable electrically assisted turbocharger rotor test device. Background Art
[0002] With the development of the automotive industry and internal combustion engines, exhaust gas turbocharging technology has been widely adopted in engine design due to its advantages in fuel economy, environmentally friendly exhaust emissions, and improved engine performance. However, due to issues such as variable load environments, harsh operating conditions, and significant hysteresis, turbocharger rotor systems are prone to fatigue failure, overspeed damage, and other failures. To address the engineering challenges of traditional turbochargers, high-speed electric motor-assisted turbochargers have emerged. The design of new electrically assisted turbochargers requires consideration of more complex shafting assembly parameters and assembly process variations, leading to significant overall vibration issues and vibration damage to some components. Losses and other practical engineering issues in actual engineering can alter the initial structure of the rotor system, leading to uncertainty in the structural vibration response. Furthermore, as vibration issues become more prominent, the contact state between mating shafting components during machining and assembly also changes. This contact nonlinearity significantly impacts the vibration characteristics of the rotor system. The parameter uncertainty introduced by the connection structure also poses challenges to the structural dynamics design of the turbocharger. The overall vibration characteristics are highly dependent on variations in shafting assembly parameters, the impact of the shafting assembly process, and stability.
[0003] Existing turbocharger rotor test equipment has many problems: 1. Because the traditional test bench adopts an integrated design method, the contact effect between axial components is completely ignored, making it impossible to conduct experimental research and testing on the contact characteristics of the rotor test bench under different working conditions; 2. There are angle or position deviations when the bearing seat is installed, which leads to imbalance of the rotor system under static conditions. At the same time, the parameter matching relationship between the form and size of the seat hole eccentricity and the influence of dynamic characteristics is difficult to verify through experiments; 3. The shaft system components are difficult or even impossible to adjust, making it difficult to verify the experimental results under different parameters. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a turbocharger rotor test equipment that can change the bearing span and bearing coaxiality, as well as the rotor imbalance. Summary of the Invention

[0031] By adjusting different shafting parameters during the experiment, the present invention can perform different experiments:
[0032] (1) Split-type machining of bearing seat hole misalignment experiment: By adjusting the adjustment knob 32 in the vertical adjustment support platform 4, the right support platform 29 is adjusted to move in the vertical direction, thereby simulating the misalignment of the central axis 6 with the left machine base 11 and the right machine base 22. The experiment of the influence of the bearing concentricity on the impeller dynamic characteristics, the motor rotor amplitude and the axis trajectory at different speeds can be carried out.
[0033] (2) Front and rear impeller imbalance experiment: By adjusting the weight and number of counterweight bolts on the compressor disk 9 and the turbine disk 25, the unbalanced mass of the central shaft 6 is constructed. Experiments can be conducted on the influence of the front and rear impeller imbalance on the impeller dynamic characteristics, motor rotor amplitude and axis trajectory at different speeds.
[0034] (3) Experiments on different spans of floating ring bearings: By adjusting the adjustment knob 32 in the axial adjustment support platform 5, the left support platform 33 is adjusted to move in the axial direction. At the same time, the first sleeve 15 and the second sleeve 28 are split into two sleeve sections. By using a combination of sleeves of different sizes, the positions of the first floating ring bearing 16 and the second floating ring bearing 27 are adjusted, thereby changing the bearing spans of the compressor disc end 1 and the turbine disc end 2. In this way, experiments are conducted on the influence of the floating ring bearing span on the impeller dynamic characteristics, the motor rotor amplitude and the axis trajectory at different speeds.
[0035] During the experiment, multiple eddy current sensors can be installed on the compressor disk 9 and the turbine disk 25 to measure the lateral displacement of the compressor disk end 1 and the turbine disk end 2. Displacement sensors can also be installed to measure the vibration displacement of the central axis in the x and y directions.
[0036] After setting the initial parameters of the shaft system and the imbalance on the disk, the signal acquisition system records the vibration displacement of the central shaft in the x and y directions under different parameters, as well as the lateral displacement data of the compressor disk end 1 and the turbine disk end 2, to provide data support for the electrically assisted turbocharger rotor model. The signal acquisition system and method can adopt existing technologies, such as the Tester data acquisition system or the LMS SCADAS data acquisition system.
