[0033] In order to make the objects, advantages and features of the present application more clear, the present application is described in detail below in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are only used to explain the technical principles of the present application, and are not used to limit the protection scope of the present application.
[0034] As shown in the drawings, the present embodiment provides a cantilever rotor assembly, which comprises a main shaft 1, a first support bearing 2, a second support bearing 3, a counterweight 4, a wheel disc 5 and at least one stage of moving blades. Figure 1
[0035] One end of the main shaft 1 is used to connect an external unit, and the first support bearing 2 is installed on the main shaft 1 near the end of the external unit. The other end (i.e. the cantilever end) of the main shaft 1 is used to install the wheel disc 5, and the second support bearing 3 is installed on the main shaft 1 near the end of the wheel disc 5.
[0036] The counterweight 4 is sleeved on the main shaft 1 and located between the first support bearing 2 and the second support bearing 3, so that the axial distance between the center of gravity of the rotor assembly and the center of the second support bearing 3 is S, and S≥d / 2, wherein d is the axial width of the second support bearing 3. In order to meet this requirement, the shaft diameter of the second support bearing 3 is generally larger than the shaft diameter of the first support bearing 2, and the specific width-diameter ratio is designed according to actual requirements.
[0037] The wheel disc 5 is a disc structure, and the inner circle is coaxially installed with the main shaft 1, or the wheel disc 5 and the main shaft 1 can be designed as an integral structure.
[0038] The present embodiment can also install a thrust disc 7 on the main shaft 1 according to assembly requirements, and the two are generally an integral structure. The thrust disc 7 can be arranged near the first support bearing 2, located on the inner side or the outer side of the first support bearing 2, or arranged near the second support bearing 3, located on the inner side or the outer side of the second support bearing 3, thereby improving the adaptability of the rotor assembly to other equipment.
[0039] The present embodiment takes two stages of moving blades as an example for description, each stage of moving blades comprises a plurality of blades 6, and the plurality of blades 6 are uniformly distributed on the outer circumference of the wheel disc 5. The blade 6 can adopt a twisted blade structure, and the blade tip (i.e. the outer end of the blade 6) is provided with a shroud for reducing the loss of leakage. The blade 6 can also be selected according to requirements. The two stages of moving blades are arranged side by side along the main shaft 1, and an axial gap is provided between the two stages of moving blades.
[0040] In the embodiment, the main shaft 1 and the counterweight 4 are in an integrated structure, that is, the middle part of the main shaft 1 is thickened, so as to determine the gravity center position of the rotor assembly and make the rotor assembly balance in operation. The rotor assembly has compact structure, light weight, good overall rigidity and stability of the rotor, and is beneficial to meet the requirement of the critical speed of the rotor.
[0041] In the embodiment, the rotor assembly has the wheel disc 5 and the blades installed at one end of the main shaft 1, so that the overall weight of the wheel disc 5 side is large, and the weight of the connecting side (that is, the side connected to the external unit) is light. In order to ensure the balance of the rotor assembly, the embodiment further provides a design method of the cantilever rotor assembly, including the following steps.
[0042] Step 1: According to the preset requirement, the weight of the wheel disc 5, the number of stages of the blades, the number of the blades 6 on each stage of the blades, the shaft diameter of the first support bearing 2 and the second support bearing 3 are determined, and the adjustable parameters are preliminarily determined, which mainly include the size of the main shaft 1, the weight of the counterweight 4, and the relative installation positions of the first support bearing 2, the second support bearing 3 and the counterweight 4.
[0043] Step 2: On the basis of step 1, the gravity center position of the rotor assembly is determined in combination with the overall structure layout of the industrial exhaust turbine. The gravity center position is generally between the first support bearing 2 and the second support bearing 3. In the embodiment, the axial distance S between the gravity center position of the rotor assembly and the center of the second support bearing 3 should satisfy S≥d / 2, wherein d is the axial width of the second support bearing 3. If the condition is satisfied, step 3 is entered. If the condition is not satisfied, the corresponding adjustable parameters are adjusted according to the design requirement and the deviation amount of the axial distance S from the actual requirement, and step 1 is returned. Generally, the above deviation amount can be satisfied by adjusting the length and the outer diameter of the counterweight 4. Of course, the length of the main shaft 1, the positions of the first support bearing 2 and the second support bearing 3 and other parameters can be adjusted according to the actual situation to adjust the above deviation amount.
[0044] Step 3: In addition to satisfying the requirement of the gravity center position, the design of the rotor assembly also needs to satisfy the calculation requirement of the rotor dynamics. Therefore, whether the above rotor assembly meets the design requirement is calculated according to the principle of the rotor dynamics. If the design requirement is met, the design of the cantilever rotor assembly is completed. Otherwise, one or more adjustable parameters are adjusted, and step 1 is returned until the design of the cantilever rotor assembly is completed.
[0045] In addition, the embodiment further provides an industrial exhaust turbine, which includes a casing, a bearing box, at least one stage of stationary blades and the cantilever rotor assembly.
[0046] The casing and the bearing box are sleeved on the main shaft 1, wherein the first supporting bearing 2, the counterweight 4 and the second supporting bearing 3 are located in the bearing box, and the wheel disc 5 and the moving blade are located in the casing. The bearing box and the casing are matched by the guide key, so as to ensure the stability and centring during operation. During the operation of the industrial tail gas turbine, the casing, the main shaft 1, the wheel disc 5 and the moving blade located in the casing are located in the high temperature zone, and the components in the bearing box are located in the low temperature zone, so as to reduce the operation risk of the bearing.
[0047] The stationary blade is installed on the inner wall of the casing, and the number of stationary blade stages matches the number of moving blade stages, that is, two moving blade stages match two stationary blade stages, and each stationary blade is located at the side of the corresponding moving blade close to the second supporting bearing 3 (that is, each stationary blade is located at the front end of the corresponding moving blade). The stationary blade and the adjacent moving blade are provided with an axial gap, and the outer circle of the wheel disc 5 is provided with a radial gap.
[0048] In order to improve the sealing performance of the turbine, a sealing sleeve is installed at the connection between the casing and the main shaft 1, and an axial end sealing element 8 is arranged between the sealing sleeve and the main shaft 1. The axial end sealing element 8 can adopt a Labyrinth seal, is nested on the main shaft 1, and cooperates with the sealing sleeve to form a small gap, so as to prevent the gas in the casing from leaking.
[0049] The first sealing element 9 is arranged between the tip of each blade 6 in each moving blade stage and the inner wall of the casing, that is, the Labyrinth sealing tooth is arranged on the tip, so as to form a small gap with the flow passage in the casing. On the one hand, the amount of gas leakage can be reduced, and the efficiency of the unit can be improved. On the other hand, the blade 6 and the casing can be prevented from being scratched during the operation of the unit.
[0050] The second sealing element 10 is arranged between the outer circle of the wheel disc 5 and the tip of the stationary blade, so that a small gap is formed between the wheel disc 5 and the stationary blade, so as to reduce the gas leakage loss and improve the efficiency of the unit.
[0051] The industrial tail gas turbine of the embodiment has high turbine efficiency, meets the requirements of the new process, is energy-saving and environment-friendly, has low manufacturing cost, and meets the market demand.
[0052] Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, but not to limit them; although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that: the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments can be modified, or some or all of the technical features can be replaced by equivalents; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the present application.
