TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of aero-engines, and particularly relates to a turbine moving blade suitable for an aero-engine. BACKGROUND
[0002] To ensure the safe operation of the turbine, a certain radial gap is required between the moving blade tip and the stationary casing, and the high-temperature gas from the combustion chamber forms a leakage flow through the gap. The tip clearance leakage increases the flow loss at the gap, resulting in a decrease in the aerodynamic performance of the turbine. On the other hand, the high-temperature gas washes the tip, the tip heat load increases, and the local overheating phenomenon is prominent, causing tip ablation and reducing the safety and reliability of the turbine.
[0003] In view of the turbine tip clearance leakage problem and tip ablation phenomenon, existing research has improved the structure and layout of the film hole, such as patents CN204552835U and CN217176719U. Similarly, patent CN112240228A uses an intermittent slot hole to improve the tip cooling effect and aerodynamic performance to a certain extent. However, in the case where the turbine inlet temperature exceeds 2000K, the tip heat load is large and easy to ablate, which is still a difficult problem to be solved for the turbine moving blade. Therefore, it is still important to develop a high-efficiency cooling tip structure with high leakage suppression and low tip heat exchange.
[0004] The present application takes GE-E3 high-pressure turbine first-stage moving blade as a prototype, and optimizes the discrete film hole of the groove tip to a discrete slit with an inclination angle under the same cold gas outflow area and cold gas flow. The cold gas outflow angle changes from 90° to 20° to the pressure side. The optimized tip cooling structure can effectively reduce the leakage loss of the tip clearance and the heat load of the tip, and improve the aerothermal performance and working reliability of the turbine. SUMMARY
[0005] The present application aims to provide a turbine moving blade with a discrete slit inclined cold gas injection structure to solve the problems of large tip clearance leakage and tip ablation in existing turbine moving blades. By arranging discrete slits on the groove bottom of the groove tip to inject cold gas obliquely to the pressure side shoulder wall inner wall surface, the aerothermal performance of the turbine is improved.
[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present application adopts the following technical solutions:
[0007] A turbine blade with a discrete slit inclined injection cooling gas structure includes a blade body, one side of which is a pressure side and the other side is a suction side. An internal cooling cavity is provided inside the blade body, and a cooling gas outlet is provided in the internal cooling cavity. A pressure side shoulder wall is provided at the upper end of the pressure side of the blade body, and a suction side shoulder wall is provided at the upper end of the suction side of the blade body. A groove bottom is provided between the pressure side shoulder wall and the suction side shoulder wall, and the pressure side shoulder wall, the suction side shoulder wall, and the groove bottom form the groove tip of the blade body. A discrete slit is opened at an acute angle near the pressure side of the groove bottom, and a cooling gas inlet is provided in the discrete slit. The cooling gas inlet is connected to the cooling gas outlet of the internal cooling cavity of the blade.
[0008] The blade body has a height S of 41.0 mm and a chord length C. x The axial chord length is 38.2 mm, and the value of C is... ax It is 28.7mm.
[0009] The height h of the pressure side shoulder wall and the suction side shoulder wall is 1% to 5% of the blade body (1) height S, with a value range of 0.41 to 2.05 mm.
[0010] The width w of the pressure side shoulder wall and the suction side shoulder wall is 1% to 2% of the height S of the blade body (1), and the value ranges from 0.41 to 0.82 mm.
[0011] The distance δ from the discrete slit to the inner edge of the pressure side shoulder wall is 1% to 3% of the blade height S, with a value range of 0.41 to 1.23 mm.
[0012] The distance l from the starting point of the discrete slit to the starting point of the leading edge of the blade body is 5% of the axial chord length C of the blade body. ax The value is 1.435mm.
[0013] The discrete slits are 3, 4, or 5 segments. If there are 3 segments, the slit length L is 6.20 mm; if there are 4 segments, the slit length L is 4.65 mm; and if there are 5 segments, the slit length L is 3.72 mm. The discrete slits are spaced 1.0 mm apart. The width d of the discrete slits ranges from 0.1 to 0.3 mm. The cold air outflow angle, i.e., the angle α between the discrete slits and the bottom of the tank, ranges from 10° to 20°. The depth f of the discrete slits along the cold air outflow direction ranges from 2.0 to 3.0 mm.
[0014] The depth g of the discrete slit perpendicular to the internal cooling cavity of the blade ranges from 2.0 to 5.0 mm.
[0015] The discrete slits are obtained by laser cutting technology.
[0016] The principle of this invention is as follows: Discrete slits are arranged at the bottom pressure side of the grooved blade tip. Cold air flows obliquely out of the slits and impacts the inner wall of the pressure-side shoulder wall. The pressure-side vortex within the groove is lifted, and some cold air is entrained into the vortex, increasing its size. The pressure-side vortex develops to the casing, reducing the effective flow area for leakage. The cold air not entrained in the vortex flows upwards along the wall to the casing, hindering the high-temperature combustion gas from entering the blade tip gap and flowing out of the pressure-side shoulder wall in the opposite direction. The shoulder wall is effectively cooled, and the high-temperature combustion gas forms flow separation above the pressure-side shoulder wall, producing a good flow obstruction effect. The discreet slits at the bottom of the groove, which spray cold air obliquely towards the pressure side, effectively cool the blade tip, suppress gap leakage, and significantly reduce the blade tip heat transfer coefficient and heat load, thus preventing blade tip ablation.
[0017] Beneficial effects: Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0018] 1. In this invention, the air film orifice is designed as a discrete slit. Experimental verification combined with numerical research shows that, under the same cold air flow rate, the cold air ejected at a low angle from the discrete slit acts on the groove flow field to hinder the entry of high-temperature combustion gas into the blade tip gap. The leakage of the blade tip gap is reduced by 4.51% to 12.33%, and the total pressure loss of the blade cascade is reduced by 7.12% to 8.40%.
[0019] 2. Compared with the grooved blade tip, the present invention reduces the area of high heat transfer coefficient distribution at the blade tip, reduces the average heat transfer coefficient at the blade tip by 9.86% to 15.95%, and reduces the average heat transfer coefficient of the shoulder wall surface by 18.28%, thus solving the problem of blade tip ablation.
[0020] 3. In this invention, the cold air ejected from the discrete slits not only prevents the high-temperature combustion gas from entering the blade tip gap, but also flows out of the pressure side shoulder wall in the opposite direction. This improves the cold air coverage effect on the shoulder wall, increases the blade tip cooling efficiency, reduces the heat load, and improves the turbine's thermal performance while ensuring its operational reliability.
