Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of aeroengines, and in particular to an efficient prediction method for rotor blade deformation taking into account centrifugal temperature coupling. Background Art
[0002] The size of the rotor-static clearance is an important factor affecting the aerodynamic and thermal efficiency and safety of the entire aircraft engine. The rotor deformation induced by complex working loads and its incoordination and asynchrony with the stator deformation are the main reasons for the change in the rotor-static clearance. Therefore, efficient and accurate calculation of rotor deformation in the design stage is one of the important prerequisites for achieving clearance prediction. The working loads of aircraft engines are extremely complex, including inertial loads, temperature loads, rotating centrifugal loads, aerodynamic loads and various vibration loads generated by maneuvering overloads. Among them, the load factors that affect the deformation of the engine rotor are mainly rotating centrifugal loads, temperature loads and maneuvering overload inertial loads. Rotating centrifugal loads and temperature loads mainly cause the deformation of the blade disk components, which is related to the structural characteristic parameters of the components; while the deformation caused by the maneuvering overload inertial load is closely related to the rotor stiffness distribution. This research report focuses on the deformation prediction and model establishment of blade disk components under rotating centrifugal loads and temperature loads.
[0003] At present, the main means of calculating rotor static deformation and clearance changes at home and abroad include analytical methods and finite element methods. Since analytical methods usually require a significant simplification of the structure, although the calculation efficiency is high, the prediction accuracy is extremely limited. At present, the finite element analysis method is the mainstream method for predicting rotor deformation and rotor-static clearance in engineering. Most of them use three-dimensional high-fidelity modeling, and on this basis, a certain dimensionality reduction is performed through periodic symmetry characteristics. Although this method is relatively reliable, it has a large amount of calculation, a long calculation time, and a high calculation cost. It is not suitable for rapid iterative optimization in the design stage. In addition, an analysis method based on a two-dimensional axisymmetric model has also been derived. This method can quickly calculate the structural deformation and stress. However, it must ignore the blade's own structure, simplify the tenon and mortise structure, and simplify the periodic symmetry to axisymmetry, which usually produces large errors when calculating the tip deformation. Summary of the invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an efficient prediction method for rotor blade deformation taking into account the centrifugal temperature coupling effect. On the basis of the parameterization of the blade disk structure, an analytical method is used to establish the explicit relationship between the blade body elongation / root centrifugal load and the blade structure parameters and load parameters, so as to realize the rapid calculation of blade deformation and its load; the axisymmetric finite element method is used for the wheel disk, and an axisymmetric finite element model based on the APDL language and the automatic equivalent application technology of loads are established to realize the rapid calculation of wheel rim deformation.

It determines the swept form of the blade. A(Z) describes the variation law of the blade cross-sectional area. Z crown 、V crownrepresents the radial position and volume of the centroid of the blade crown, and ω represents the angular velocity of rotation. The centrifugal load includes the centrifugal tensile stress F in the Z direction of the blade height. blade And the centrifugal bending moment M Y1 ;
[0049] Centrifugal tensile stress F blade The calculation formula is as follows:
[0050]
[0051] Where ρ is the density, ω is the rotation speed, A(Z) is the variation law of the cross-sectional area of the blade along the blade height direction, and F crown The centrifugal force generated by the leaf crown;
[0052] For a turbine rotor blade with a shroud, the centrifugal force generated by the shroud is F crown , the calculation formula is as follows:
[0053] F crown =ρω 2 V crown Z crown ;
[0054] Among them, V crown is the canopy volume, Z crown is the leaf crown height directional coordinate;
[0055] Centrifugal bending moment The calculation formula is as follows:
[0056]
[0057] Among them, Z bt and Z br are the blade height coordinates of the blade tip and blade root respectively, and X(Z) is the function relationship between the blade height Z and the axial X coordinate of the cross-section centroid.

[0064]
[0065] Where α(Z) is the linear expansion coefficient of the blade material, and T0 is the reference temperature;

The specific load and constraint application conditions are shown in the figure. Figure 4 As shown in the figure, different combinations of temperature and speed are used as a working condition, and the radial deformation of the wheel disc is solved by using the command flow cycle. The radial deformation of all nodes of the disc rim assembly is extracted to solve the deformation of the disc rim.
[0076] S4, combining the blade deformation obtained by the blade analytical method and the disk edge deformation obtained by the axisymmetric disk finite element method to obtain the tip deformation of the overall blade disk structure under corresponding working conditions, and correcting the deformation caused by the tenon connection;
[0077] Taking the actual tenon connection structure as the object, a three-dimensional solid finite element model considering the tenon connection interface contact is established to calculate its deformation; on the other hand, the influence of the tenon connection contact interface is ignored and the gap of the tenon and mortise structure is filled, and it is treated as an integral blade disk structure to calculate its deformation; by comparing the deformation results of the two models, the influence of the tenon connection structure on the blade tip deformation is analyzed; the average radial deformation Δl of the blade tip of the integral blade disk and the tenon connection blade disk is obtained. tenon and Δl blisk , and finally the range of the correction coefficient K2 is obtained as follows:
