TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of heavy gas turbine internal air system design, and particularly relates to a composite Archimedes spiral type drag reduction device for improving the performance of a heavy gas turbine bleed air. BACKGROUND
[0002] A gas turbine is a high-efficiency and reliable engine. It is widely used in various fields, such as aviation, shipping, vehicles, and generator sets. In the aviation field, the gas turbine is widely used as an aero-engine in various aircraft. In the shipping field, the gas turbine is widely used as a main engine in large ships and yachts. In the vehicle field, the gas turbine is used as a car engine or diesel engine replacement in high-performance vehicles and electric vehicles. In the generator set field, the gas turbine is used to build large power stations or as a small generator set in distributed energy systems. Its performance is an important indicator of the advancement of modern industry, and the key way to improve the performance of the gas turbine is to increase the inlet gas temperature before the turbine. However, with the development of gas turbine technology, the inlet temperature has already exceeded the temperature limit of the turbine blade, and secondary flow air system must be used to cool it to ensure the normal work of the high-temperature components.
[0003] To improve the quality of cooling air, an important measure is to reduce the drag of the air system bleed air source. When the cooling air passes through the radial bleed air structure from the root of the compressor blade, the air will be affected by centrifugal force, Coriolis force and other factors, resulting in a sharp drop in bleed air pressure and a decrease in the quality of secondary flow cooling air. To solve this problem, the common method is to add various vortex suppressor elements in the rotating disc cavity to suppress complex vortex and reduce the loss along the way, or to optimize and improve the drum bleed air element to reduce the loss of air through the hole. This kind of drag reduction method has been widely used in light turbine machinery, especially in aero-engines. However, due to the structural characteristics of heavy gas turbine bleed air structure, which is different from light turbine machinery, the previous research results cannot be directly applied. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a vortex reduction device that can improve the drag reduction performance of heavy gas turbine air system. SUMMARY

The upper rotating disc 1 and the middle rotating disc 2 are left with an air inlet gap 9 between the outer circumferential surfaces. The rotating shaft 6 passes through the center holes of the upper rotating disc 1, the middle rotating disc 2 and the lower rotating disc 3, the inner diameters of the upper rotating disc 1 and the middle rotating disc 2 are equal, and the upper rotating disc 1, the middle rotating disc 2 and the rotating shaft 6 are fixedly connected, and the lower rotating disc 3 and the rotating shaft 6 are left with an air outlet gap 10.
[0025] The side wall of the upper rotating disc 1 close to the middle rotating disc 2, the side wall of the middle rotating disc 2 close to the upper rotating disc 1, the upper surface of the upper rotating disc drum 11 and the upper surface of the middle rotating disc drum 21 surround to form a high disc cavity 8, and the cross section of the high disc cavity 8 can be rectangular, circular or any polygonal shape.

[0026] As shown in the figure, Figure 2 A plurality of vortex reduction holes 5 are opened on the middle rotating disc 2, which are distributed equidistantly along the circumference, and eight vortex reduction holes are opened in the embodiment. The cross section of the vortex reduction hole 5 is circular, elliptical, square or any polygonal shape. The axis of the vortex reduction hole 5 and the axis of the middle rotating disc 2 form a preset angle, which is 20-70°, so as to ensure the communication between the high disc cavity and the low vortex reducer disc cavity. The inlet rotating radius r i of the vortex reduction hole 5 is less than the outer radius r b of the middle rotating disc 2, and the outlet rotating radius r o of the vortex reduction hole 5 is greater than the inner radius r a of the middle rotating disc 2. The edges of the inlet and outlet of the vortex reduction hole 5 are chamfered or rounded to further reduce the loss of airflow when entering the hole.
[0027] As shown in the figures, Figure 3 and Figure 4 The low vortex reducer disc cavity 7 is also provided with an Archimedes spiral type guide plate 4, the number of the vortex reduction holes and the Archimedes spiral type guide plates is the same, and the Archimedes spiral type guide plate is installed between two vortex reduction holes.
