Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of aero-engine, and particularly relates to a rotor disc deformation efficient prediction method considering centrifugal temperature coupling. BACKGROUND

[0002] Rotor disc deformation is an important factor affecting the aerodynamic and thermal efficiency and safety of an aero-engine, and the rotor deformation and the incoordination and asynchronization of the rotor deformation and the stator deformation induced by complex working load are the main reasons leading to the change of the rotor-stator gap, so efficient and accurate calculation of the rotor deformation at the design stage is one of the important prerequisites for realizing the gap prediction. The working load of an aero-engine is extremely complex, including the inertial load generated by the maneuvering overload, the temperature load, the rotating centrifugal load, the aerodynamic load and various vibration loads, among which the load factors affecting the rotor deformation of the engine are the rotating centrifugal load, the temperature load and the inertial load of the maneuvering overload. The rotating centrifugal load and the temperature load mainly cause the deformation of the disc component, which is related to the structural characteristic parameters of the component; and the deformation caused by the inertial load of the maneuvering overload is closely related to the rotor stiffness distribution. The present research report focuses on the deformation prediction and model establishment of the disc component under the action of the rotating centrifugal load and the temperature load.

[0003] At present, the main means for calculating the rotor static deformation and the gap change at home and abroad include the analytical method and the finite element method. Since the analytical method usually needs to greatly simplify 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 the rotor deformation and the rotor-stator gap in engineering, and a three-dimensional high-fidelity modeling is usually adopted, and on this basis, a certain dimension reduction processing is carried out through the periodic symmetry characteristics. Although this method is relatively reliable, the calculation amount is large, the calculation time is long, and the calculation cost is high, and it is not suitable for rapid iteration optimization at the design stage. In addition, the analysis method based on the two-dimensional axisymmetric model is also derived, which can quickly calculate the structural deformation and stress, however, it must ignore the blade structure, simplify the tenon and mortise structure and simplify the periodic symmetry to axisymmetry, and a large error is usually generated when the tip deformation is calculated.

[0045] Example 1

[0046] As shown in Figure 1 , the present application provides a rotor disc deformation efficient prediction method considering centrifugal temperature coupling effect, comprising the following steps:

[0047] S1, establishing a blade analytical model, inputting blade geometric characteristic parameters, material parameters and load parameters to solve the deformation of the blade under centrifugal, temperature load and coupling effect of the two, and the blade centrifugal load;

[0048] The required geometric characteristic parameters of the blade are as shown in Figure 2 , Z is the radial direction of the blade, Y is the axial direction of the engine, X is perpendicular to the two, and the radial positions of the blade tip and blade root section are Z bt and Z br , respectively. The curve composed of the centroid of each section of the blade is called the blade stacking line, which is described by X(Z), Y(Z), which determines the sweep 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 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 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 X coordinate of the cross-section centroid axis.

[0058] The cross section A(Z) is subjected to the centrifugal force above the interface:

[0059]

[0060] The deformation Δl1 of the blade due to centrifugal tensile stress is shown as follows:

[0061]

[0062] Where E is the elastic modulus.

[0063] The temperature of the blade is the same on the cross section, and the temperature in the Z direction varies with the blade height. Let the temperature of any thin section A(Z) be T(Z), then the radial deformation of the entire blade due to the temperature increase is Δl T, the calculation formula is shown as follows:

[0064]

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

[0066] Due to the influence of temperature, the elastic modulus E of the blade material is no longer a constant, and the elastic modulus of the blade in the direction of blade height Z is E(Z). The comprehensive deformation Δl of the blade under the centrifugal and temperature load is Z&T

[0067]

[0068] S2, the centrifugal load generated by the blade is applied to the rim nodes of the disc plane model in a discrete form along the axial distribution function;

[0069] For the centrifugal load generated by the blade, it acts on the disc in the form of distributed force. Due to the complexity of the structural characteristics of the blade, the distributed force is not ideally uniformly distributed. The function of the axial distribution of the blade centrifugal load density (referred to as the centrifugal load density distribution function) is f(x), which needs to satisfy that the resultant force and the resultant moment of the load distribution are equal to the resultant force F and the resultant moment M generated by the blade Z :

[0070]

[0071] A distribution function (uniform equivalent distribution, linear non-uniform distribution and quadratic function distribution) is selected to program and solve the above equation. The results of the solution are applied to the rim nodes of the disc plane model in a discrete form. In the case of sufficient grid, it can be considered that the nodes are distributed equidistantly in the axial direction, and the total number of nodes is n. The corresponding axial coordinates are x i (i = 1, 2, …, n), then the load value F i on each node can be obtained.

[0072]

[0073] S3, an axisymmetric finite element model is established, the geometric characteristic parameters, material parameters and load parameters of the disc are input, the temperature load and the centrifugal load are applied to solve the rim deformation condition.

[0074] A plane model of the meridian section of the disc is drawn in the drawing software, as shown in Figure 3 , wherein Figure 3 a in the three-dimensional model of the disc Figure 3 ​b in the formula is a plane model of the wheel disc. The axial symmetric finite element model based on ANSYS APDL command stream language and load automatic equivalent application technology are established, and the rapid calculation of the rim deformation is realized. Through the command stream, ANSYS automatically imports the wheel disc model file, sets the unit type as a plane axial symmetry, gives the material, identifies the centroid coordinates of each side of the wheel disc, defines the edge with the maximum radial coordinate as the disc rim, and defines the edge with the minimum radial coordinate as the disc core. The wheel disc is divided into grids, and the number of nodes at the disc rim is n.

[0075] When the radial deformation of the wheel disc under centrifugal load is solved, the rotational angular velocity is applied to the wheel disc, and the centrifugal load generated by the blade is applied to each node of the disc rim. When the radial deformation of the wheel disc under temperature load is solved, the temperature load is applied to the disc rim and disc core assembly of the wheel disc respectively. When the radial deformation of the wheel disc under the combined action of centrifugal load and temperature is solved, the two types of loads are applied together. The specific load and constraint application conditions are shown in Figure 4 . Different combinations of temperature and rotational speed are used as a working condition, the command stream is used to solve the radial deformation of the wheel disc, and the radial deformation of all nodes of the disc rim assembly is extracted to solve the disc rim deformation.

[0076] S4, the blade deformation obtained by the blade analysis method and the disc rim deformation obtained by the axial symmetric wheel disc finite element method are combined to obtain the tip deformation of the overall bladed disc structure under the corresponding working condition, and the deformation caused by the tenon connection is corrected.

[0077] Taking the actual tenon connection structure as the object, the three-dimensional solid finite element model considering the contact of the tenon connection interface is established, and the deformation is calculated. On the other hand, the gap of the tenon head and tenon groove structure is ignored, and the gap is treated as an overall bladed disc structure, and the deformation is calculated. By comparing the deformation results of the two models, the influence of the tenon connection structure on the tip deformation is analyzed. The average values of the tip radial deformation of the overall bladed disc and the tenon connection bladed disc are Δl tenon and Δl blisk , and the range of the correction coefficient K2 is finally obtained, as shown below:

[0078] Δl tenon = K2 Δl blisk .

[0079] Therefore, the above-mentioned efficient rotor bladed disc deformation prediction method considering centrifugal temperature coupling is adopted, on the basis of the parameterization of the bladed disc structure, the explicit relationship between the blade elongation / blade structure parameters and load parameters under centrifugal load is established by using the analytical method for the blade, the rapid calculation of the blade deformation and load is realized, the axial symmetric finite element method is used for the wheel disc, the axial symmetric finite element model based on APDL language and the load automatic equivalent application technology are established, and the rapid calculation of the rim deformation is realized.

[0080] It should be pointed out finally that the above examples are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application but not to limit it, and although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that the technical solutions of the present application can still be modified or replaced equivalently, and these modifications or equivalent replacements should not make the modified technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present application.
