Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the technical field of three-dimensional design of composite swept and bowed rotor blades for aero-engine compressors, and particularly relates to a composite swept and bowed rotor blade for an aero-engine compressor and its integral disk structure. Background Art
[0002] With the increase in the total pressure ratio and single-stage pressure ratio of the new generation of aero-engine compressors, rotor blades with sweep shapes have begun to be applied to compressors.
[0003] The development trend of compressors is that the number of stages is gradually decreasing, the pressure ratio is gradually increasing, and the compressor load is gradually increasing. Due to the increase in the compressor stage load, the design of rotor blades has faced great challenges. On the premise of ensuring high pressure ratio and high performance, rotor blades require sufficient strength, rigidity, and anti-vibration characteristics. The traditional disk-tenon connection rotor structure is gradually being replaced by the integral bladed disk structure.
[0004] The rotor blades of the integral bladed disk structure are integrally formed on the rotor disk and can be radially divided into the blade tip, blade root, rim, spoke, and hub according to their functions. The rotor blades have a leading edge and a trailing edge in the chord length direction, as Figure 1 shown.
[0005] The flow rate and stable operating margin of the compressor are largely determined by the rotor configuration. The integral bladed disk structure can effectively improve the performance of the compressor compared with the disk-tenon connection rotor structure. However, currently, the integral bladed disk structure adopts a two-dimensional rotor configuration design, and only relying on the sweep shape design of the rotor blades has limited effect on improving the compressor performance, and cannot maximize the potential of the integral bladed disk structure. In addition, in the current compressor design concept, a large stage pressure ratio, flow rate, and wide operating margin cannot be achieved at the same time. Based on this design, the obtained rotor blades are difficult to meet the working requirements of the new generation of compressors for high pressure ratio, large flow rate, and wide margin, and often only consider the aerodynamic performance of the rotor blades, aerodynamic characteristics such as aerodynamic loss at the blade tip, and ignore the mechanical characteristics of the rotor blades, vibration characteristics brought by the sweep shape, and gas-solid coupling characteristics such as order modes.
[0006] In view of the existence of the above technical defects, this application is proposed. Summary of the Invention

It should also be noted that unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, words such as "installation" and "connection" used in the description of this application should be understood in a broad sense. For example, connection can be a fixed connection or a detachable connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand their specific meanings in this application according to the specific situation.
[0043] The compressor rotor blade is composed of stacked airfoils. The airfoil is composed of a pressure surface and a suction surface facing each other front and back. The chord length extends from the leading edge to the trailing edge, and the radial height extends from the blade root to the blade tip. The overall blisk structure has good strength and good resistance to vibration and bending. It is suitable for bending design. The dihedral angle can be incorporated into the airfoil design, especially the dihedral feature can be incorporated into the swept airfoil to reduce the aerodynamic loss, secondary flow loss and shock wave in the channel at the blade tip.
[0044] Based on the above embodiments of this application, a compressor composite swept and curved rotor blade and its integral disk structure for an aeroengine are provided. The rotor blade is designed as a combined airfoil structure of "swept shape" and "dihedral angle", and the rotor blade is three-dimensionally designed to fully explore the potential of the overall blisk structure, so as to achieve the best aerodynamic performance, effectively reduce the shock wave Mach number and blade tip loss, improve the endwall performance, reduce the aerodynamic loss of the blade tip clearance, and improve the efficiency of the compressor.
[0045] The swept and curved coupling design of the compressor rotor is a typical three-dimensional configuration design. Separating the leading and trailing edges of the rotor blade can generate a large airflow bend and improve the compressor performance.
[0046] The leading edge of the rotor blade, from bottom to top, is successively the root sweep region A1, the forward sweep transition region A2, and the tip forward sweep region A3, occupying radial height ranges of 0 - 20%, 20% - 75%, and 75% - 100% respectively.
[0047] The trailing edge of the rotor blade, from bottom to top, is successively the root sweep region B1, the sweep transition region B2, and the tip straight region B3, occupying radial height ranges of 0 - 30%, 30% - 80%, 75% - 100%, and 80% - 100% respectively, as Figure 2 shown.
[0048] The swept shape is mainly concentrated at the root and tip of the rotor blade. In particular, the sweep angle of the tip forward sweep region A3 near the tip of the leading edge is in the range of 20 - 40°, and the sweep angle of the root sweep region B1 is in the range of 5° - 30°. The remaining intervals are mainly sweep transition regions.
[0049] The distribution curves of the sweep angles of the leading edge and trailing edge of the rotor blade can be specifically designed as Figure 3 shown, where the forward sweep angle is -, and the backward sweep angle is +.
[0050] On the basis of the swept shape of the rotor blade, a dihedral angle feature is added, as Figure 4 shown. The dihedral angle bending region is mainly concentrated in the root sweep region A1, the tip forward sweep region A3, the root sweep region B1, and the tip straight region B3. That is, the root sweep region A1, the tip forward sweep region A3, the root sweep region B1, and the tip straight region B3 have dihedral angles, and the dihedral angle changes from top to bottom between -6° and +30°. The middle of the blade is a non-bending region, as Figures 5 - 6 shown.
[0051] The swept shape and the dihedral angle of the rotor blade have a great influence on the performance and stability of the compressor. The compound swept shape of the front and trailing edges is determined according to the performance and stability of the compressor. The leading edge aerodynamic dihedral angle is defined with respect to the streamline surface.
[0052] The 2D shape of the rotor blade is as Figure 7 shown, and the 3D shape is as Figure 8 shown. The forward and backward swept structures of the rotor blade are as Figure 9 shown. In the meridional plane projection view, the meridional angle and the local axial tilt angle of the streamline surface are as Figure 10 shown. In the YZ plane, the tangential angle is as Figure 11 shown. f1 is the tip, f2 is the blade shape, f3 is the root, LE is the leading edge, TR is the trailing edge, AK is the streamline surface, CE is the blade stack axis, G is the intersection point of the meridional plane and f2, t1 is the tangent line passing through G and f2, the X-axis is the engine axis direction, the Z-axis is directly above radially, and the XZ plane is the meridional plane of the engine.
[0053]
[0054]
[0055] Among them,
[0056] β is the grazing angle, and α is the dihedral angle;
[0057] is the meridional plane angle, μ is the local axial tilt angle, η is the local tangential tilt angle, and γ is the cylindrical flow angle.
[0058]
[0059] γ = arctan(Vy / Vx);
[0060] Among them,
[0061] Vx, Vy, and Vz are the components of the streamline velocity V in the X, Y, and Z directions, and the initial velocity V0 corresponds to the leading edge position.
[0062] The above-mentioned compressor composite sweep and bend rotor blade of an aero-engine breaks the traditional two-dimensional design concept, conducts three-dimensional composite modeling and combination design, conducts zonal design on the sweep shape, combines with the dihedral angle design, conducts the design of the "sweep and bend" zones, develops new three-dimensional design technologies, utilizes the integral blisk structure in three-dimensional space, gives full play to the performance of the compressor, can effectively control the airflow bending, improve the performance of the compressor, increase the compressor flow rate and the stable operating range.
[0063] The above-mentioned compressor composite sweep and bend rotor blade of an aero-engine is a rotor blade configuration method that comprehensively considers the coordinated action of the sweep angle and the dihedral angle. Relying on the integral blisk rotor structure, it integrates the three-dimensional configuration design method into the blade configuration design, conducts the sweep shape design for the front and trailing edges, focuses on the dihedral angle and sweep angle design in the area with the largest sweep shape, and considers the comprehensive effects of relevant velocities, tangential tilt angles, stacked axis axial tilt angles, and meridional plane angles on the "dihedral angle and sweep angle", which can provide technical reserves for the next generation of high-performance compressors, and gives the calculation methods for the key parameters "sweep angle" and "dihedral angle" of the three-dimensional configuration, providing a design basis for high-performance high-pressure ratio compressors.
