Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present disclosure belongs to the field of aero-engine component characteristics, and particularly relates to a method for identifying the characteristics of a cooling turbine with extended residuals of an aero-engine model. Background Technique
[0002] During the past few decades, the compressor pressure ratio and turbine inlet temperature of gas turbine engines have been increased by designing turbine cooling air extraction systems, effectively improving the Brayton cycle efficiency. Currently, the commonly used turbine cooling forms include impingement cooling, convective cooling, film cooling, and transpiration cooling, etc. Among them, the combination mode of convective cooling and film cooling is the most effective in using cooling air. The turbine cooling air extraction volume of most traditional turbine engines cannot be actively adjusted and is determined according to the ablation risk in the maximum state, and there is a large margin in the full envelope range. Taking a military twin-rotor low-bypass ratio turbofan engine as an example, its turbine cooling air extraction flow accounts for 15-25% of the core flow. To balance the capabilities of low fuel consumption and high maneuverability, it is an important trend for variable cycle engines of the propulsion systems of new-generation fighter jets to actively and optimally adjust the turbine cooling air extraction volume in real time, adjust the turbine efficiency, optimize the overall engine performance, and reduce the fuel consumption rate in low operating states such as idle, cruise, and descent. For example, NASA conducted an active closed-loop cold air test on the N2A turbofan engine and found that a 12% cold air shut-off saved 3.6% fuel.
[0003] Accurate cooling air extraction turbine characteristics are an important basis for evaluating the overall engine performance and real-time optimization of the cold air volume. However, the current thermodynamic models used in the industry, such as GASCAN, TURBOMATCH, and IGCC, introduce a large number of undetermined unknown coefficients, which are mostly given by relying on the estimation method of empirical formulas, and their accuracy needs to be verified. On the other hand, regarding the characteristic acquisition methods such as component tests and CFD calculations, due to the differences in component test environments, the interference of sensors on the flow field, and the deviations in CFD calculations, the characteristics obtained often differ from the results of the overall engine test runs.
[0004] Identifying the characteristics of the cooling turbine component based on the overall engine test run data is a characteristic acquisition method that conforms to engineering practice. For the actual gas turbine engine overall test data, there are few sensor measurement points at the cross-sections near the front and rear of the turbine component. Generally, there are even no measurement points near the high-pressure turbine, which increases the difficulty of accurately extracting the cooling turbine characteristics. Even through the test run test method of artificially turning on / off the cooling air extraction, there will be a deviation in the operating state due to the re-matching of the overall engine components, and it is difficult to distinguish the part of the turbine characteristic change in the change of the output parameters.
[0005] Therefore, how to design a method for identifying the characteristics of a cooling turbine with extended residuals of an aero-engine model is an urgent problem to be solved in the industry.
[0006] The above information disclosed in the background section is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of the present invention, and thus may include information that does not constitute the prior art known to those of ordinary skill in the art. Summary of the Invention
[0007] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the purpose of the present disclosure is to provide a method for identifying the characteristics of a cooling turbine with extended residuals of an aero-engine model. By combining the steady-state points of the full-open mode of the high-pressure turbine bleed air in the test run data, a high-precision component-level model of the aero-engine in the full-open mode of the bleed air is established. For the high-pressure turbine bleed air cut-off mode in the test run data, the residuals of the calculated output parameters of the extended model are obtained, and an effective identification of the characteristics of the cooling turbine is carried out by combining the flow influence factor μ and the efficiency influence factor ζ identification algorithms.
[0008] To achieve the above purpose, the present disclosure provides the following technical solutions:
[0009] A method for identifying the characteristics of a cooling turbine with extended residuals of an aero-engine model, comprising the following steps:
[0010] Step S100: Analyze the influence mechanism of cooling bleed air on turbine characteristics;
[0011] Step S200: Based on the above analysis results and test run data, construct a high-precision component-level model of the aero-engine in the full-open mode of the bleed air;
[0012] Step S300: Extend the model to the stage of cooling bleed air cut-off, estimate the output parameters of the whole machine, and obtain the output parameter residuals;
[0013] Step S400: Based on the output parameter residuals, design a residual identification algorithm to adjust the turbine characteristics and eliminate various output parameter errors;
[0014] Step S500: Conduct accuracy verification by combining multiple steady-state data in the cooling bleed air cut-off mode.
[0015] Preferably, in step S100, the turbine characteristics include the turbine flow characteristics, i.e., the corrected flow rate through the turbine The formula for its definition is as follows:
[0016]
[0017] In the formula: Wa cor ——The corrected flow rate through the turbine; n cor ——The corrected speed of the turbine; ——The pressure drop ratio of the total pressure at the inlet and outlet of the turbine; Wa 41 ——The physical flow rate of the turbine / (kg / s); ——The total pressure at the critical section of the turbine guide vane / Pa; P std ——The sea-level pressure under standard conditions / Pa; —— Total temperature at the critical section of the turbine guide vane / K; T std —— Sea-level temperature on a standard day / K.
[0018] On the other hand, in a turbine without cooling bleed air, the following relationship exists between the flow characteristics of the turbine and the flow at the critical section of its guide vane:
[0019]
[0020] In the formula: Wa 41 —— Physical flow rate of the turbine / (kg / s); Wa 43 —— Air flow rate through the critical section of the turbine / (kg / s); n cor —— Corrected speed of the turbine; —— Pressure drop ratio of the total pressure at the inlet and outlet of the turbine; q—— Dimensionless mass flow; A 43 —— Area of the critical section of the guide vane / (m 2 ); —— Total pressure at the critical section of the turbine guide vane / Pa; —— Total temperature at the critical section of the turbine guide vane / K; K—— Constant, which can be calculated according to the following formula:
[0021]
[0022] In the formula: R—— Gas constant / (J / K / kg); k—— Adiabatic index.
[0023] Preferably, in step S100, the turbine characteristics further include the turbine efficiency characteristic, i.e., the turbine isentropic efficiency The formula for its definition is as follows:
[0024]
[0025] In the formula: η—— Turbine isentropic efficiency; n cor —— Corrected speed of the turbine; —— Pressure drop ratio of the total pressure at the inlet and outlet of the turbine; L T,r —— Rim work / J; L TS,r —— Ideal expansion work / J; cp—— Specific heat at constant pressure of the gas / (J / K / kg); —— Total temperature at the critical section of the turbine guide vane / K; —— Total temperature at the outlet of the turbine / K; R—— Gas constant / (J / K / kg); k—— Adiabatic index.
[0026] Analyze the existing high-pressure turbine cooling air bleeding technology of aeroengines, summarize different cooling schemes and cooling air bleeding injection methods. Considering that the defined range of turbine characteristics is from the critical section of the nozzle guide vane to the turbine outlet, taking the critical section of the turbine nozzle guide vane as the boundary, it is divided into pre-critical section cooling and post-critical section cooling. Analyze the influence of the latter on turbine characteristics through the principles of thermodynamics, and transform it into the flow rate influence factor μ and the efficiency influence factor ζ to complete the analysis of the influence mechanism.
[0027] Specifically, since the injection of cooling air bleeding after the critical section of the nozzle guide vane destroys the original flow rate characteristic law, in order to uniformly describe the flow rate characteristic laws of the uncooled turbine and the cooled turbine again, the equivalent critical area A of the nozzle guide vane is defined. Cr,eq . Among them, the injected cooling air bleeding bypasses the critical section, additionally increasing the turbine outlet flow rate, which can be equivalently considered that the dimensionless mass flow rate q characteristic law of the critical section of the nozzle guide vane remains unchanged, the critical area increases, and the flow capacity is improved. On the contrary, when the post-cooling air bleeding system of the turbine is shut off, it can be equivalently considered that the critical area of the nozzle guide vane decreases, and the turbine throttles.
[0028]
[0029] Where A Cr,eq ——Equivalent critical area of the nozzle guide vane / (m 2 ); Wa5——Flow rate at the outlet of the high-pressure turbine rotor / (kg / s); P 43 * ——Total pressure at the critical section of the high-pressure turbine nozzle guide vane / Pa; K——Constant of formula (9); q——Dimensionless mass flow rate; n [[ID=]1] cor ——Converted speed of the turbine; ——Pressure drop ratio of the total pressure at the inlet and outlet of the turbine; T 43 * ——Total temperature at the critical section of the high-pressure turbine nozzle guide vane / K; Wa 43 ——Flow rate at the critical section of the high-pressure turbine nozzle guide vane / (kg / s); Wa c2 ——Flow rate of the post-cooling air at the critical section of the high-pressure turbine nozzle guide vane / (kg / s).
[0030] According to the definition of the critical area A 43 in formula (8) and the connection between the equivalent critical area A Cr,eq in formula (11), the flow rate characteristic Wa cor,eq of the cooled turbine can be rewritten as:
[0031]
[0032] Where Wa cor,eq ——Equivalent equivalent converted flow rate; n cor ——Converted speed of the turbine; ——The pressure ratio of the total pressure at the inlet and outlet of the turbine; Wa 43 ——The flow rate of the critical section of the high-pressure turbine guide vane / (kg / s); Wa c2 ——The flow rate of the post-cooling air at the critical section of the high-pressure turbine guide vane / (kg / s);

[0034] The efficiency definition (10) of the traditional uncooled turbine ignores the influence of the cooling bleed air. Driven by the cooling bleed air, the turbine rim work L Tr Is updated as follows:
[0035]
[0036] Where L’ Tr ——The updated turbine rim work / J; L Tr ——The turbine rim work of the traditional uncooled turbine / J; ΔL——The additional rim work of the cooling bleed air impacting the turbine / J; Wa 43 ——The flow rate of the critical section of the high-pressure turbine guide vane / (kg / s); Wa c2 ——The flow rate of the post-cooling air at the critical section of the high-pressure turbine guide vane / (kg / s); T 43 * ——Is the total temperature at the critical section of the high-pressure turbine guide vane / K; T c2 * ——Is the total temperature of the cooling bleed air / K; ——The total temperature at the turbine outlet / K; cp——Specific heat capacity at constant pressure of the gas / (J / K / kg).
[0037] Therefore, there are also changes in the efficiency definition. Considering the isentropic ideal expansion work L TS,r Of the work capacity of multiple gases, the generalized turbine efficiency η T,eq Is defined as:
[0038]
[0039] Among them, η T,eq ——Generalized turbine efficiency; L T,r ——Rim work / J; L TS,r—— Ideal expansion work / J; i —— are 43 and various different airflows of c2 respectively; cp —— Specific heat capacity of gas at constant pressure / (J / K / kg); T i * —— Total temperature of the corresponding gas / K; —— Total temperature at the turbine outlet / K; Wa i —— Corresponding gas flow rate / (kg / s); k —— Adiabatic index; R —— Gas constant / (J / K / kg); P i * —— Total pressure of the corresponding gas / Pa; —— Total pressure at the turbine outlet / Pa.
[0040] Combined with the definition of the non-cooled turbine efficiency in formula (10), η T,eq Can be equivalent to:
[0041]
[0042] Among them, η T,eq —— Generalized turbine efficiency; n cor —— Turbine conversion speed; —— Pressure drop ratio of the total pressure at the inlet and outlet of the turbine; ζ —— Efficiency influence factor; Wa c2 —— Cooling air flow rate after the critical section of the high-pressure turbine guide vane / (kg / s); Wa 43 —— Flow rate at the critical section of the high-pressure turbine guide vane / (kg / s).

Among them, considering the degree of influence of the actual cooling bleed system on the turbine, ζ min = 0.8, ζ max = 1.2, μ min = 0.8, μ max = 1.2:

[0055] In the formula: τ—the extended model calculation residual; ——The steady-state point test run data of the engine in the high-pressure turbine bleed cut-off mode at time t, including the input parameters state parameters output parameters μ—the flow rate influence factor; ζ—the efficiency influence factor; ——The output parameter vector of the engine in the high-pressure turbine bleed cut-off mode at time t; ΓA (.)——High-precision overall engine model in the full-open high-pressure turbine bleed air mode; ——Input parameter vector; ——State parameter vector; μ min ——Minimum value of the flow rate influence factor; μ max ——Maximum value of the flow rate influence factor; ζ min ——Minimum value of the efficiency influence factor; ζ max ——Maximum value of the efficiency influence factor.
[0056] Preferably, in step S400, the residual identification algorithm is iterated by the following method:
[0057] Step S401 initializes the residual identification algorithm: Initialize the initial values of 1.0 for the flow rate influence factor μ and the efficiency influence factor ζ respectively;
[0058] Step S402 calculates the initial residual: Compare the output of the extended calculation of the model with the actual output parameters of the engine to calculate the residual
[0059] Step S403 calculates the gradient: According to the current residual at the nth step The gradient of the adjustment coefficient Optimize to determine the value of the adjustment coefficient for the next iteration Gradient calculation formula:

The adjustable parameters are the flow rate influence factor μ and the efficiency influence factor ζ, and the optimization constraint range is And Is the steady-state data set of the engine in the high-pressure turbine bleed air cut-off mode at time t. Among them, considering the influence degree of the actual cooling bleed air system on the turbine, ζ min = 0.8, ζ max = 1.2, μ min = 0.8, μ max = 1.2:

The scope of protection of the present disclosure shall be subject to what is defined by the appended claims.
[0089] For the convenience of understanding the embodiments of the present disclosure, the following will further explain with specific embodiments as examples in conjunction with the drawings, and each drawing does not constitute a limitation on the embodiments of the present disclosure.
[0090] In one embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, the present disclosure provides a method for identifying the cooling turbine characteristics of the extended residual of an aero-engine model, including the following steps:
[0091] Step S100: Analyze the influence mechanism of the cooling bleed air on the turbine characteristics;
[0092] Step S200: Establish a high-precision component-level model of the aero-engine in the full-open bleed air mode based on the test run data at the design point and multiple steady-state points;
[0093] Step S300: Extend the model to the cooling bleed air cut-off stage, estimate the overall engine output parameters, and obtain the output parameter residuals;
[0094] Step S400: Design a residual identification algorithm to adjust the turbine characteristics and eliminate the errors of multiple output parameters such as the low-pressure rotational speed N1, the high-pressure rotational speed N2, the pressure P after the compressor, 31 and the temperature T6 after the low-pressure turbine;
[0095] Step S500: Combine the steady-state data at multiple points in the cooling bleed air cut-off mode for accuracy verification.
[0096] In one embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, the present disclosure provides a structure of an engine turbine object, a definition of the gas path cross-section station, and a thermodynamic characteristic process, including the following details: The high-pressure turbine includes two components, namely the stator and the rotor. The gas path cross-section at the stator inlet is section 4, the stator outlet, which is the rotor inlet, is section 45, and the rotor outlet is section 5. During the thermodynamic process of the gas flowing through the 4-45-5 cross-sections, the enthalpy h of the gas decreases and the entropy S increases.
[0097] In one embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, the present disclosure provides a schematic diagram of the cooling bleed air cut-off logic for a twin-spool turbofan engine turbine. At the design point state where the throttle lever PLA is 65, the corrected rotational speed N of the high-pressure rotor of the engine 2cor is relatively high, the temperature in front of the turbine is relatively large, and the turbine cooling bleed air is in the fully open state A; as the input throttle lever command PLA gradually decreases and the engine state gradually drops, the corrected rotational speed N of the high-pressure rotor 2cor gradually decreases. When it exceeds the switching point, the turbine cooling bleed air of the engine changes from the fully open state A to the cut-off state B.
[0098] As Figure 4 shown, commissioning data D is collected for the fully open state A of the engine turbine cooling bleed air A , and commissioning data D is collected for the cut-off state B of the engine turbine cooling bleed air B . The commissioning data includes input parameters I E , output parameters O E , and state parameters x. Among them, the engine model Γ A established based on the commissioning data D of the fully open state A A , when entering the cut-off state B, according to the engine input parameters I B in the engine commissioning data D E,B (main fuel flow rate wf, fan guide vane angle a1, high-pressure compressor guide vane angle a2, nozzle throat area A8) and state parameters x BEngine model output parameter Γ calculated by extrapolating (low-pressure speed N1, high-pressure speed N2) A (I E,B , x B )(including low-pressure speed N1, high-pressure speed N2, compressor outlet pressure P 31 , and low-pressure turbine outlet temperature T6), based on test run data D B of output parameter O E,B Calculation error. Since the component flow characteristics and efficiency characteristics change suddenly before and after the high-pressure turbine cooling air bleed is cut off, this part of the error reflects the magnitude of the change in turbine characteristics caused by the cut-off of the cooling air bleed, and is the key to identifying the influence of the cooling air bleed on the high-pressure turbine characteristics.
[0099] In this embodiment, by analyzing the influence mechanism of the cooling air bleed on the turbine characteristics, based on the test run data at the design point and multi-stable points, a high-precision component-level model of the aero-engine in the full-open air bleed mode is established; the model is extended to the stage of cooling air bleed cut-off, the output parameters of the whole engine are estimated, and the output parameter residuals are obtained; according to the output parameter residuals and the designed residual identification algorithm, the turbine characteristics are adjusted to eliminate various output parameter errors; it can overcome the problem that it is difficult to identify the cooling turbine characteristics due to the small number of sensor measurement points near the front and rear sections of the turbine components and the re-matching of the engine components before and after the cooling air bleed is shut off, and can accurately describe the influence of the aero-engine cooling air bleed on the turbine characteristics and the ability of behavior prediction.
[0100] In another embodiment, in step S100, the analysis steps of the influence principle of the cooling air bleed on the turbine characteristics are as follows:
[0101] Turbine characteristics include turbine flow characteristics (i.e., the corrected flow rate Wa cor ) through the turbine and turbine efficiency characteristics (i.e., turbine isentropic efficiency η), and their defined formulas are as follows:
[0102]
[0103] In the formula: Wa cor ——Corrected flow rate through the turbine; n cor ——Turbine corrected speed; ——Pressure drop ratio of the total pressure at the inlet and outlet of the turbine; Wa 41 ——Turbine physical flow rate / (kg / s); ——Total pressure at the critical section of the turbine guide vane / Pa; P std ——Sea level pressure on a standard day / Pa; ——Total temperature at the critical section of the turbine guide vane / K; T std ——Sea level temperature on a standard day / K.
[0104] On the other hand, in a turbine without cooling bleed air, the following relationship exists between the flow characteristics of the turbine and the flow in its nozzle critical section:
[0105]
[0106] In the formula: Wa 41 ——Physical flow rate of the turbine / (kg / s); Wa 43 ——Air flow rate passing through the turbine critical section / (kg / s); n cor ——Corrected speed of the turbine; ——Pressure drop ratio of the total pressure at the inlet and outlet of the turbine; q——Dimensionless mass flow density; A 43 ——Area of the nozzle critical section / (m 2 ); ——Total pressure of the turbine nozzle critical section / Pa; ——Total temperature of the turbine nozzle critical section / K; K——Constant, which can be calculated according to the following formula:
[0107]
[0108] In the formula: R——Gas constant / (J / K / kg); k——Adiabatic index.
[0109]
[0110] In the formula: η——Isentropic efficiency of the turbine; n cor ——Corrected speed of the turbine; ——Pressure drop ratio of the total pressure at the inlet and outlet of the turbine; L T,r ——Work done at the rim / J; L TS,r ——Ideal expansion work / J; cp——Specific heat capacity at constant pressure of the gas / (J / K / kg); ——Total temperature of the turbine nozzle critical section / K; ——Total temperature at the outlet of the turbine / K; R——Gas constant / (J / K / kg); k——Adiabatic index.
[0111] Analyze the existing high-pressure turbine cooling bleed air technology of aero-engines, summarize different cooling schemes and cooling bleed air injection methods. Considering that the definition range of turbine characteristics is from the nozzle critical section to the turbine outlet, taking the turbine nozzle critical section as the boundary, it is divided into pre-critical section cooling and post-critical section cooling. Analyze the influence of the latter on turbine characteristics through thermodynamic principles, transform it into a flow influence factor μ and an efficiency influence factor ζ, and complete the analysis of the influence mechanism.
[0112] Specifically as follows: Since the injection of cooling bleed air after the nozzle critical section destroys the original flow characteristic law, in order to uniformly describe the flow characteristic law forms of turbines without cooling and cooled turbines again, define the equivalent critical area A of the nozzleCr,eq Among them, the injected cooling bleed air bypasses the critical section, additionally increasing the turbine outlet flow rate, which can be equivalent to the dimensionless density flow rate q characteristic law of the stator vane critical section remaining unchanged, the critical area increasing, and the flow capacity improving. On the contrary, when the post-turbine cooling bleed air system is shut off, it can be equivalent to the reduction of the stator vane critical area and turbine throttling.
[0113]
[0114] Where A Cr,eq —— Equivalent critical area of the stator vane / (m 2 ); Wa5 —— Outlet flow rate of the high-pressure turbine rotor / (kg / s); P 43 * —— Total pressure at the critical section of the high-pressure turbine stator vane / Pa; K —— Constant of formula (25); q —— Dimensionless density flow rate; n cor —— Turbine corrected speed; —— Pressure drop ratio of the total pressure at the inlet and outlet of the turbine; T 43 * —— Total temperature at the critical section of the high-pressure turbine stator vane / K; Wa 43 —— Flow rate at the critical section of the high-pressure turbine stator vane / (kg / s); Wa c2 —— Post-cooling air flow rate at the critical section of the high-pressure turbine stator vane / (kg / s).
[0115] According to the relationship between the definition of the critical area A 43 in formula (24) and the equivalent critical area A Cr,eq in formula (27), the cooling turbine flow rate characteristic Wa cor,eq can be rewritten as:
[0116]
[0117] Where Wa cor,eq —— Equivalent equivalent corrected flow rate; n cor —— Turbine corrected speed; —— Pressure drop ratio of the total pressure at the inlet and outlet of the turbine; Wa 43 —— Flow rate at the critical section of the high-pressure turbine stator vane / (kg / s); Wa c2 —— Post-cooling air flow rate at the critical section of the high-pressure turbine stator vane / (kg / s);
[0118] P 43 * —— Total pressure at the critical section of the high-pressure turbine stator vane / Pa; K —— Constant of formula (25); q —— Dimensionless density flow rate; A Cr,eq —— Equivalent critical area of the stator vane / (m 2 ); A 43 —— Area of the critical section of the stator vane / (m2 ); μ - flow influence factor.
[0119] The efficiency definition of the traditional uncooled turbine (26) ignores the influence of the cooling bleed air. Driven by the cooling bleed air, the turbine rim work L Tr is updated as follows:
[0120]
[0121] where L’ Tr - updated turbine rim work / J; L Tr - traditional uncooled turbine rim work / J; ΔL - additional rim work added to the turbine by the cooling bleed air impact / J; Wa 43 - high-pressure turbine nozzle critical section flow rate / (kg / s); Wa c2 - cooling air flow rate after the high-pressure turbine nozzle critical section / (kg / s); T 43 * - is the total temperature at the high-pressure turbine nozzle critical section / K; T c2 * - is the total temperature of the cooling bleed air / K; - total temperature at the turbine outlet / K; cp - specific heat capacity at constant pressure of the gas / (J / K / kg).
[0122] Therefore, there are also changes in the efficiency definition. Considering the isentropic ideal expansion work L TS,r of the work capacity of multiple gas streams, the generalized turbine efficiency η T,eq is defined as:
[0123]
[0124] where, η T,eq - generalized turbine efficiency; L T,r - rim work / J; L TS,r - ideal expansion work / J; i - are 43, c2 for various different gas flows; cp - specific heat capacity at constant pressure of the gas / (J / K / kg); T i * - corresponding gas total temperature / K; - total temperature at the turbine outlet / K; Wa i - corresponding gas flow rate / (kg / s); k - adiabatic index; R - gas constant / (J / K / kg); P i * - corresponding gas total pressure / Pa; - total pressure at the turbine outlet / Pa.
[0125] Combined with the efficiency definition of the uncooled turbine in formula (26), η T,eq can be equivalently expressed as:
[0126]
[0127] Among them, η T,eq —— Generalized turbine efficiency; n cor —— Turbine corrected speed; —— Pressure drop ratio of total pressure at the inlet and outlet of the turbine; ζ —— Efficiency influence factor; Wa c2 —— Cooling air flow rate after the critical section of the high-pressure turbine guide vane / (kg / s); Wa 43 —— Flow rate of the critical section of the high-pressure turbine guide vane / (kg / s).
