[0002] Gas turbines currently play an irreplaceable and important role in energy, aviation, and marine applications.

[0056] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to be used to explain the present invention, but should not be understood as limiting the present invention.
[0057] See also Figures 1 to 8 The gas turbine component cooling efficiency testing device 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a box body 1, an air inlet assembly 2, an air outlet assembly 3 and a cooling cover 4.
[0058] The housing 1 has an inner cavity. The side walls of the housing 1 are provided with a first air inlet 11, an air outlet 12, and a cooling port 13 communicating with the inner cavity. The inner cavity of the housing 1 is used to house components to be tested. The components to be tested in the embodiments of the present invention can be suitable for gas turbine turbine vane cooling test pieces 92, combustion chamber flame tube actual structure test pieces 93, and combustion chamber flame tube simplified flat plate test pieces 91. The space within the housing 1 is larger than the required dimensions of the components to be tested, ensuring that different components to be tested can be placed within the inner cavity. A mounting portion 14 corresponding to the components to be tested can also be provided within the inner cavity to facilitate securing the components to be tested and prevent them from shaking or tipping over due to airflow.
[0059] After the component to be tested is placed in the box 1, it corresponds to the cooling port 13, so that the cold air from the cooling port 13 can be used to cool the component to be tested. According to different testing methods for different components to be tested, the component to be tested can be abutted against the circumference of the cooling port 13, so that the cooling surface, flow channel and other cooling areas of the component to be tested are opposite to the cooling port 13. The cold air at the cooling port 13 can impact the component to be tested for impact cooling test, or the cold air can flow through the component to be tested into the box 1 and then be discharged from the air outlet 12, or the cold air at the cooling port 13 can contact the cooling surface of the component to be tested for heat exchange.
[0060] The air inlet assembly 2 is connected to the first air inlet 11 of the housing 1 to deliver hot air into the housing 1. The air outlet assembly 3 is connected to the air outlet 12 of the housing 1 to exhaust the gas within the housing 1. The hot air can be heated air. The flow rate, flow velocity, temperature, and other parameters of the hot air can be adjusted according to the actual operating conditions. When the hot air flows through the component under test, the environmental conditions of the component under actual operating conditions can be simulated. The gas within the housing 1 flows out of the housing 1 through the air outlet 12 and is discharged through the air outlet assembly 3.
[0061] In the embodiment of the present invention, the first air inlet 11 and the air outlet 12 of the box body 1 can be coaxially arranged relative to each other, and the first air inlet 11 and the air outlet 12 can be coaxially arranged relative to each other along the second direction, thereby avoiding obstruction of the airflow in the box body 1 and improving the smooth flow of the airflow in the box body 1.
[0062] The cooling housing 4 has a cavity and is connected to the cooling port 13 of the housing 1 so that the cooling port 13 communicates with the cavity. A second air inlet 41, a third air inlet 42, and a fourth air inlet 43 are provided on the sidewalls of the cooling housing 4. The second air inlet 41 and the cooling port 13 are coaxially arranged along a first direction, while the third air inlet 42 and the fourth air inlet 43 are coaxially arranged along a second direction. The first and second directions are orthogonal to each other. The first direction is the vertical direction shown in the figure, and the second direction is the horizontal direction shown in the figure.
[0063] Any of the second air inlet 41, the third air inlet 42, and the fourth air inlet 43 can be used as an inlet for cold air to enter the cooling housing 4. Each of the second air inlet 41, the third air inlet 42, and the fourth air inlet 43 is provided with a flange plate to facilitate connection with the corresponding inlet and outlet pipes. Of course, when the corresponding air inlet on the cooling housing 4 is not needed, it can be blocked with a flange blind cover.
[0064] For example, the second air inlet 41 is used as the inlet of cold air, so that the cold air entering the cooling cover 4 can flow directly to the cooling port 13 and impact the component to be tested, thereby performing an impact cooling test. Figure 3As shown, the third air inlet 42 serves as the inlet of cold air, and the fourth air inlet 43 serves as the outlet of cold air. When the cold air flows through the cooling cover 4, the cold air contacts the cooling surface of the component to be tested for heat exchange and cooling. The flow direction of the cold air is the same as that of the hot air in the box 1, which is used to simulate the cooling of the axial flow combustion chamber. For another example, Figure 5 As shown, the fourth air inlet 43 serves as the inlet of cold air, and the third air inlet 42 serves as the outlet of cold air. When the cold air flows through the cooling cover 4, the cold air contacts the cooling surface of the component to be tested for heat exchange and cooling. The flow direction of the cold air is opposite to the flow direction of the hot air in the box 1, which is used to simulate the cooling of the annular tube combustion chamber or the turboprop recirculation combustion chamber of a heavy-duty burner. For another example, Figure 4 As shown, the second air inlet 41 , the third air inlet 42 or the fourth air inlet 43 serves as an inlet for cold air. The cold air flows through the component to be tested into the box 1 and then flows out through the air outlet 12 of the box 1 .
[0065] The gas turbine component cooling efficiency test device 100 of the embodiment of the present invention is arranged through multiple air inlets on the cooling cover 4. For different components to be tested, air can be introduced and exhausted through different air inlets on the cooling cover 4 to adjust the flow direction of the cold air, thereby meeting the testing of different components to be tested, meeting test measurements for different purposes, and improving the compatibility and versatility of the test device.
[0066] The following describes a gas turbine component cooling efficiency testing device 100 according to some specific embodiments of the present invention.
[0067] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, a gas turbine component cooling efficiency testing device 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a housing 1 , an air inlet assembly 2 , an air outlet assembly 3 and a cooling cover 4 .
[0068] The housing 1 has an inner cavity. The side walls of the housing 1 are provided with a first air inlet 11, an air outlet 12, and a cooling port 13 that are in communication with the inner cavity. The inner cavity of the housing 1 is used to place the component to be tested. The component to be tested in the embodiment of the present invention can be applicable to a turbine stator cooling test piece 91, a combustion chamber flame tube real structure test piece 93, a combustion chamber flame tube simplified flat plate test piece 91, etc. of a gas turbine. The spatial dimensions within the housing 1 are larger than the size requirements of the component to be tested, thereby ensuring that different components to be tested can be placed in the inner cavity. A mounting portion 14 corresponding to the component to be tested can also be provided in the inner cavity. The component to be tested can be fixed to the housing 1 by bolts or other connecting parts, which facilitates the fixation of the component to be tested and prevents shaking or tipping due to the influence of airflow.
[0069] The box body 1 has a viewing window 15 , and a transparent glass plate 16 is provided at the viewing window 15 so that the detection device can measure data through the glass plate 16 .
[0070] There are multiple windows 15, and multiple windows 15 are arranged on multiple sides of the box body 1. For example, the box body 1 is a hexahedron, three of which are respectively arranged with the first air inlet 11, the air outlet 12 and the cooling port 13, and the other three sides can be arranged with windows 15.
[0071] Glass plates 16 are detachably attached to housing 1, with at least some of the glass plates 16 having different transmittance wavelength ranges. The detection device can be at least one of a thermocouple, a pressure scanner, a pressure-sensitive paint measurement device, a thermosensitive liquid crystal device, an infrared thermal imager, a particle image velocimeter, or a laser Doppler velocimeter. To facilitate different optical measurement methods, different glass plates 16 can be replaced to accommodate lasers of different wavelengths.
[0072] The embodiment of the present invention is compatible with various testing methods such as thermosensitive liquid crystal (TLC), pressure sensitive paint (PSP), infrared thermal imager, particle image velocimetry (PIV), laser Doppler velocimetry (LDV), thermocouple, etc., and has better practicality.
[0073] After the component to be tested is placed in the box 1, it corresponds to the cooling port 13, so that the cold air from the cooling port 13 can be used to cool the component to be tested. According to different testing methods for different components to be tested, the component to be tested can be abutted against the circumference of the cooling port 13, so that the cooling surface, flow channel and other cooling areas of the component to be tested are opposite to the cooling port 13. The cold air at the cooling port 13 can impact the component to be tested for impact cooling test, or the cold air can flow through the component to be tested into the box 1 and then be discharged from the air outlet 12, or the cold air at the cooling port 13 can contact the cooling surface of the component to be tested for heat exchange.
[0074] The air intake assembly 2 is connected to the first air intake port 11 of the housing 1 to deliver hot air into the housing 1. Specifically, the air intake assembly 2 includes a coaxially arranged air intake cylinder 21 and a rectifying cylinder 22. The outlet end of the air intake cylinder 21 is connected to the inlet end of the rectifying cylinder 22, and the outlet end of the rectifying cylinder 22 is connected to the first air intake port 11 of the housing 1. The cross-sectional dimensions of the air intake cylinder 21 gradually decrease from the end away from the rectifying cylinder 22 to the end closer to the rectifying cylinder 22. The air intake cylinder 21 has a generally frustum-shaped shape, which increases the airflow velocity as it flows through the air intake cylinder 21. The rectifying cylinder 22 is in the shape of a column with a uniform cross-section. A rectifying plate 23, a first detection component, and a PIV particle spreader are provided inside the rectifying cylinder 22. The rectifying plate 23 may be a rectifying grid plate, which can rectify the airflow passing through the rectifying cylinder 22. By changing the flow velocity and direction of the fluid, the occurrence of turbulence is reduced, thereby reducing energy loss and improving the quality of the hot air flowing into the inner cavity of the box 1. The first detection component may be a temperature, flow, pressure, or other sensor used to detect gas parameters. The PIV particle spreader can spread tracer particles in the fluid to measure the flow field velocity using particle image velocimetry (PIV).
[0075] The gas outlet assembly 3 is connected to the gas outlet 12 of the housing 1 to discharge the gas in the housing 1. Specifically, the gas outlet assembly 3 includes a coaxially arranged rear measuring cylinder 31 and an exhaust cylinder 32. The inlet end of the rear measuring cylinder 31 is connected to the exhaust port of the housing 1, and the outlet end of the rear measuring cylinder 31 is connected to the inlet end of the exhaust cylinder 32. The cross-sectional size of the exhaust cylinder 32 gradually decreases from the end close to the rear measuring cylinder 31 to the end away from the rear measuring cylinder 31. A second detection component is provided in the rear measuring cylinder 31. The second detection component can be a sensor such as temperature, flow, and pressure, which is used to detect the parameters of the gas flowing out of the housing 1. The rear measuring cylinder 31 can be a cylindrical shape with a uniform cross-section, and the exhaust cylinder 32 can be a frustum-shaped. The cross-sectional size of the exhaust cylinder 32 gradually increases along the airflow direction, which can reduce the exhaust speed and reduce noise.
[0076] The hot air can be heated air. Parameters such as the flow rate, flow velocity, and temperature of the hot air can be adjusted according to actual operating conditions. When the hot air flows through the component under test, it simulates the environmental conditions of the component under actual operating conditions. The gas within the housing 1 flows out of the housing 1 through the outlet 12 and is discharged through the outlet assembly 3.
[0077] The gas turbine component cooling efficiency testing apparatus 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a first heating element, which is an electric heater and is disposed within the housing 1. The first heating element is used to heat the gas within the housing 1 or to contact the component under test to heat the component under test. This better simulates operating temperatures and improves the accuracy and reliability of the test.
[0078] The exhaust assembly 3 also includes an exhaust pipe 33, which is connected to the outlet end of the exhaust cylinder 32. The exhaust pipe 33 is provided with a back-pressure regulating valve 34 and a silencer 35. The back-pressure regulating valve 34 can effectively control and stabilize the air pressure parameters within the box 1, and the silencer 35 can reduce exhaust noise to avoid sound pollution to the surrounding environment.
[0079] In the embodiment of the present invention, the first air inlet 11 and the air outlet 12 of the box body 1 can be coaxially arranged relative to each other, and the first air inlet 11 and the air outlet 12 can be coaxially arranged relative to each other along the second direction, thereby avoiding obstruction of the airflow in the box body 1 and improving the smooth flow of the airflow in the box body 1.
[0080] The cooling housing 4 has a cavity and is connected to the cooling port 13 of the housing 1 so that the cooling port 13 communicates with the cavity. A second air inlet 41, a third air inlet 42, and a fourth air inlet 43 are provided on the sidewalls of the cooling housing 4. The second air inlet 41 and the cooling port 13 are coaxially arranged along a first direction, while the third air inlet 42 and the fourth air inlet 43 are coaxially arranged along a second direction. The first and second directions are orthogonal to each other. The first direction is the vertical direction shown in the figure, and the second direction is the horizontal direction shown in the figure.
[0081] Any of the second air inlet 41, the third air inlet 42, and the fourth air inlet 43 can be used as an inlet for cold air to enter the cooling housing 4. Each of the second air inlet 41, the third air inlet 42, and the fourth air inlet 43 is provided with a flange to facilitate connection with the corresponding inlet and outlet pipes. Of course, when the corresponding air inlet on the cooling housing 4 is not needed, it can be blocked with a flange blind cover.
[0082] For example, the second air inlet 41 serves as an inlet for cold air, and the cold air entering the cooling housing 4 can flow directly to the cooling port 13 and impact the component to be tested, thereby performing an impact cooling test.
[0083] For example, Figure 3 As shown, the third air inlet 42 serves as the inlet of cold air, and the fourth air inlet 43 serves as the outlet of cold air. When the cold air flows through the cooling cover 4, the cold air contacts the cooling surface of the component to be tested for heat exchange cooling. The flow direction of the cold air is the same as the flow direction of the hot air in the box 1, which is used to simulate the cooling of the axial flow combustion chamber.
[0084] For example, Figure 5 As shown, the fourth air inlet 43 serves as the inlet of cold air, and the third air inlet 42 serves as the outlet of cold air. When the cold air flows through the cooling cover 4, the cold air contacts the cooling surface of the component to be tested for heat exchange and cooling. The flow direction of the cold air is opposite to the flow direction of the hot air in the box 1, which is used to simulate the cooling of the annular tube combustion chamber or the turboprop recirculation combustion chamber of a heavy-duty burner.
[0085] For example, Figure 4 As shown, the second air inlet 41 , the third air inlet 42 or the fourth air inlet 43 serves as an inlet for cold air. The cold air flows through the component to be tested into the box 1 and then flows out through the air outlet 12 of the box 1 .
[0086] The gas turbine component cooling efficiency test device 100 of the embodiment of the present invention is arranged through multiple air inlets on the cooling cover 4. For different components to be tested, air can be introduced and exhausted through different air inlets on the cooling cover 4 to adjust the flow direction of the cold air, thereby meeting the testing of different components to be tested, meeting test measurements for different purposes, and improving the compatibility and versatility of the test device.

One end of the cold air supply component 6 is connected to the air source, and the other end is connected to one of the second air inlet 41, the third air inlet 42, and the fourth air inlet 43.
[0090] The air source includes a compressor 81 and an air tank 82. The compressed air generated by the compressor 81 is stored in the air tank 82, which is connected to the main air supply assembly 5 and the cold air supply assembly 6. The air tank 82 has a pressure stabilizing effect, which can avoid the problem of unstable air pressure caused by the operating fluctuations of the compressor 81.
[0091] The detection device 10 is used to obtain data parameters from the test device. The detection device 10 can include at least one of a thermocouple, an air pressure scanning valve, a pressure-sensitive paint measuring device, a thermosensitive liquid crystal device, an infrared thermal imager, a particle image velocimeter, or a laser Doppler velocimeter. Depending on the test application, the airflow parameters and direction of the test device are adjusted and the corresponding detection device 10 is selected.
[0092] The main air supply assembly 5 is used to deliver hot air of preset temperature and preset flow into the box body 1, and the cold air supply assembly 6 is used to deliver cooling medium of preset flow into the cooling cover 4 to simulate the working conditions of the component to be tested in the working state.

The compressed air generated by the compressor 81 is stored in the air tank 82, which is connected to the main air supply assembly 5 and the cold air supply assembly 6. The air tank 82 has a pressure stabilizing effect, which can avoid the problem of unstable air pressure caused by the operating fluctuations of the compressor 81.
[0098] The main gas supply assembly 5 includes a main gas supply pipeline 51, a first valve group 52, a second heating component 53 and a second flow meter 54. The first valve group 52 and the second heating component 53 are both connected to the main gas supply pipeline 51. The first valve group 52 includes a plurality of regulating valves arranged in parallel and of different specifications to adjust the airflow parameters in the main gas supply pipeline 51 according to working conditions.
[0099] There may be multiple second heating components 53 , and multiple second heating components 53 are connected in series with multiple control valves and then arranged in parallel to form a main gas heating assembly.
[0100] The cold air supply assembly 6 includes a cold air supply pipeline 61, a second valve group 62, a first flow meter 63, a first switch valve 64 and a third heating component 65. The second valve group 62 is connected to the cold air supply pipeline 61. The second valve group 62 includes a plurality of regulating valves arranged in parallel and of different specifications to adjust the airflow parameters in the cold air supply pipeline 61 according to working conditions.
[0101] The third heating component 65 can be connected in series with one of the regulating valves in the second valve group 62 to heat the gas in one of the branches in the second valve group 62 as needed to adjust the temperature of the gas delivered to the cooling cover 4 to make it more compatible with the actual working conditions and improve the scope of application.
[0102] The first valve group 52 and the second valve group 62 each include three regulating valves, large, medium and small, for precisely controlling the intake air flow rate. Precise regulation can be achieved under different flow conditions, and the practicality is good.
[0103] The carbon dioxide supply assembly 7 is connected to one of the second air inlet 41, third air inlet 42, or fourth air inlet 43 of the cold air supply assembly 6. The carbon dioxide supply assembly 7 includes a carbon dioxide storage tank 75, a carbon dioxide supply pipeline 71, a pressure reducing valve 72, a fourth heating element 73, and a second on-off valve 74. The carbon dioxide storage tank 75 is connected to the carbon dioxide supply pipeline 71. The pressure reducing valve 72, the fourth heating element 73, and the second on-off valve 74 are all connected to the carbon dioxide supply pipeline 71. The fourth heating element 73 can adjust the temperature of the carbon dioxide working medium.
[0104] The second heating element 53, the third heating element 65 and the fourth heating element 73 of the embodiment of the present invention can all be electric heaters, which work independently to adjust the temperature of the working medium in the corresponding pipelines.
[0105] In the embodiment of the present invention, carbon dioxide and air are used as two cooling working fluids. Carbon dioxide as the working fluid gas can be used for PSP pressure sensitive paint measurement, and cold air can be used for measurement by other means, which has better compatibility with the detection equipment 10 in application.
[0106] Before connecting to the cooling housing 4, the cold air supply line 61 is combined with the carbon dioxide supply line 71 through a three-way pipe to supply air. Air or carbon dioxide is selected by the first on-off valve 64 and the second on-off valve 74. When performing PSP measurements, carbon dioxide is introduced into the cooling housing 4 by opening the second on-off valve 74. When performing other tests, air is introduced into the cooling housing 4 by opening the first on-off valve 64. The second air inlet 41, the third air inlet 42, and the fourth air inlet 43 on the cooling housing 4 can all serve as cold air inlets and outlets. Of course, the cooling housing 4 can be equipped with no cold air outlets, allowing cold air to enter the housing 1 and then be discharged. For example, when performing film cooling or divergent cooling tests, one of the three air inlets on the cooling housing 4 serves as the cold air inlet, while the other two are sealed with blind flange covers. All cold air is then introduced into the housing 1 through the film holes of the test piece (part to be tested) and then discharged with the main air. For another example, when performing an impact cooling test, the second air inlet 41 is used as the inlet of cold air, and the third air inlet 42 and / or the fourth air inlet 43 are used as the outlet of cold air. The cold air is discharged through the outlet after cooling the test piece.

The detection device 10 can include at least one of a thermocouple, an air pressure scanning valve, a pressure-sensitive paint measuring device, a thermosensitive liquid crystal device, an infrared thermal imager, a particle image velocimeter, or a laser Doppler velocimeter. Depending on the test application, the airflow parameters and direction of the test device are adjusted and the corresponding detection device 10 is selected.
[0108] The main air supply assembly 5 is used to deliver hot air of preset temperature and preset flow into the box body 1, and the cold air supply assembly 6 is used to deliver cooling medium of preset flow into the cooling cover 4 to simulate the working conditions of the component to be tested in the working state.
[0109] The embodiment of the present invention is compatible with different types of component test pieces and test methods on the same test platform, simplifying the test cost and process. The embodiment of the present invention provides a test box 1 with good compatibility, which is compatible with turbine stator cooling test pieces 92, combustion chamber flame tube simplified flat plate test pieces 91, flame tube real structure test pieces 93, etc. Through the cold air supply assembly 6 with replaceable interfaces, the direction of the cold air interface and the working medium can be replaced to meet different test requirements. Carbon dioxide or cold air can be connected or sealed to achieve compatibility with various test methods such as thermosensitive liquid crystal (TLC), pressure sensitive paint (PSP), infrared thermal imager, particle image velocimetry (PIV), laser Doppler velocimetry (LDV), thermocouples, etc. without replacing the main test platform equipment.
