Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of aerodynamic design of aero-engine fans and compressors, and specifically relates to an aerodynamic design method for fan blade cascades based on Bessel suction surface superimposed channels. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of aerodynamic design of aircraft engine fans and compressors, the method of superimposing thickness distribution along the mid-arc line is commonly used to generate two-dimensional airfoils. This method first gives the tangential coordinates of each point on the mid-arc line. Along the axial direction The pattern of change For example, higher-order polynomials or multi-circular curves; then give the blade thickness. Along the axial direction The pattern of change For example, higher-order polynomials; then, the first on the middle arc. Points Based on this point, the blade thickness is superimposed on both sides along the normal direction. The suction side points were obtained respectively. and pressure side point Connect all suction points to obtain the coordinates of the suction surface curve. Connect all pressure points to obtain the pressure surface curve coordinates. Finally, using the first and last points on the mid-arc line as a reference, the leading and trailing edges are supplemented with specific types of curves (such as circular arcs or elliptical arcs) to form the leading and trailing edge curves, thus completing the two-dimensional airfoil aerodynamic design.

[0003] The method of generating two-dimensional airfoils using the mid-arc superposition thickness distribution method has two main drawbacks: First, it is not intuitive; the suction surface curve is derived from the mid-arc superposition thickness distribution, and the variation law of the suction surface curve cannot be directly specified during the design; for the flow in the cascade channel, the suction surface, not the mid-arc, is in direct contact with the fluid, so the variation law of the suction surface curve cannot be directly controlled, which will make it difficult to directly control the flow characteristics of the cascade surface; Second, it lacks design convenience; since the variation law of the cascade channel size along the flow direction cannot be directly determined, there is a lack of direct means to control the overall flow characteristics of the cascade channel, and multiple matchings are often required to obtain a suitable cascade channel.
