Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to a gas turbine test method, in particular, a wheel disc integrity test method. BACKGROUND
[0002] The ship and industrial gas turbine are developing towards higher power and larger size. In order to make the gas turbine have enough strength, the rotating part of the wheel disc is often designed to be thick and heavy. The thick and heavy wheel disc will have internal defects (such as segregation and hydrogen and sulfur-containing brittle zone), which cannot be detected by ordinary ultrasonic detection. When the wheel disc works at extremely cold temperature, the material will become brittle, and the crack defect may expand to the critical value at the working speed to cause the wheel disc to break. The destruction energy of the wheel disc at high speed is huge, which will have disastrous consequences on the ship, the plant and the personal safety. Therefore, how to design a method to check the structural integrity of the wheel disc is particularly important.
[0003] The cold-state overspeed pre-stress test technology of the wheel disc can expand the crack defect in advance during the overspeed process to make the wheel disc with large defect break; if the defect does not cause damage, the opening generated can be detected by subsequent non-destructive detection, so as to avoid the damage that may occur during use. SUMMARY

[0022] 5. The temperature standard in step (8) is that the absolute value of the difference between the calibration temperature and the required temperature is less than 10℃.
[0023] 6. The calculation method of the cold state pre-rotation test speed N C in step (9) is:
[0024]
[0025] Wherein K is a coefficient related to the structure of the wheel disc and the material performance.
[0026] 7. The cold state pre-rotation test in step (9) requires the following: the wheel disc is kept at the specified temperature for at least 3 hours before the test, and the wheel disc rotates at a speed of N C for at least 1 minute;
[0027] After the test is completed, the wheel disc is cooled down, and when the wheel disc is thermally stable, the diameter of the disc core hole of the wheel disc is measured at the same positions and in the same way as in step (1), and the average is recorded as Duse, and the temperature at the time of measurement is recorded as Te.
[0028] 8. Step (10) Test result validity analysis: After the rotation test, non-destructive testing is performed on all surfaces of the wheel. If no cracks are found, the wheel meets the structural integrity check. If cracks are found, the wheel is scrapped.

[0032] The invention will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0033] Combination Figures 1-2 The present invention provides a cold-state overspeed pre-rotation test method for assessing the structural integrity of a gas turbine disk, the specific steps of which are as follows:
[0034] Step 1: Perform rotor assembly and dynamic balancing, including assembling and dynamically balancing the test piece with the transfer plate, simulated blades and other test components.
[0035] After the rotor is assembled, it needs to be... Figure 2 The diameter of the disc center hole is measured by measuring at least three different locations along the axial direction. At each location, two diameter measurements must be taken at mutually perpendicular 90° angles, and these locations must be marked on the disc. The average of the measured dimensions is recorded as Dpp; the temperature during the measurement is also recorded as Ts.
[0036] Step 2: Perform dynamic balance standard judgment. If the unbalance requirement is met, proceed to Step 3. If not, repeat Step 1 to perform dynamic balance again.
[0037] The standard for dynamic balancing is that the residual imbalance after dynamic balancing should be less than 100 g·mm.
[0038] Step 3: Install the rotor by connecting the rotor test piece to the rotating tester via an intermediate connecting fixture.
[0039] Step 4: Perform an installation standard check. If the circular runout requirement is met, proceed to Step 5; otherwise, proceed to Step 3.
[0040] The installation standard is that the circular runout of any circumferential surface of the test piece after installation should be less than 0.1 mm.
[0041] Step 5: Conduct a trial run at room temperature.
[0042] Step 6: Perform vibration amplitude standard judgment, if the vibration standard is met, then proceed to Step 7, otherwise repeat Step 1 to re-balance.

[0044] Step 7: Perform temperature field calibration.
[0045] Step 8: Perform temperature field standard judgment, if the temperature requirement range is met, then proceed to Step 9, otherwise repeat Step 7.

Before the temperature reaches the required test temperature, low-speed rotation is performed at a speed of 100-200 r / min to ensure uniform cooling of the wheel disc.
[0048] The cold-state pre-rotation test speed N C is calculated as follows:
[0049]
[0050] where K is a coefficient related to the structure and material properties of the wheel disc.
[0051] In the formula:
[0052] - Yield limit of 0.2% at 20 degrees Celsius, in units of MPa.

[0056] Step 10: Perform test result validity analysis. Non-destructive testing is performed on all surfaces of the wheel disc, if no cracks are found, the wheel disc meets the structural integrity check, if cracks are found, the wheel disc is scrapped.
