Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of aero-engine technology, and in particular to a thermal barrier coating air-cooled impact testing device. Background Technology
[0002] Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are advanced ceramic material coatings applied to the surfaces of high-temperature components, primarily targeting critical components such as aero-engine and gas turbine blades. This coating acts as a high-performance thermal barrier, effectively isolating the metal substrate from extreme high temperatures, thereby significantly increasing the component's operating temperature ceiling, extending its service life, and improving overall operational efficiency, while also further reducing reliance on cooling systems. In the aero-engine field, TBCs are widely used in hot-end components, such as flame tubes and gas ducts. These components need to withstand repeated high-temperature shocks exceeding 1000°C during actual operation, and the coating must not crack or peel, placing extremely stringent requirements on the material's high-temperature stability and thermal shock resistance. To evaluate the practical performance of such coatings, thermal cycling tests are typically conducted on specimens prepared using the same materials and spraying processes to simulate the complex thermal history experienced by real components throughout their lifespan. However, such tests involve thousands of heating-cooling cycles, are extremely time-consuming, and existing testing equipment largely relies on manual operation for temperature setting, parameter adjustment, and data recording, resulting in low automation, inefficiency, and susceptibility to human error.

[0047] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0048] like Figures 1 to 13As shown, this embodiment provides a thermal barrier coating air-cooled impact testing device, which includes: a clamping mechanism, a first driving member 3, a cooling mechanism, a heating component 6, a temperature monitoring system, and a controller 7. The clamping mechanism includes several clamping bodies 1, which are used to clamp and fix test pieces 2. The first driving member 3 can drive the several clamping bodies 1 to rotate and have multiple test piece positions. The cooling mechanism includes several cooling pipes 4 and an air compressor 5. The air compressor 5 is used to deliver cooling gas to the several cooling pipes 4. The several cooling pipes 4 are arranged one-to-one with the several test piece positions. The cooling pipes 4 are configured to guide the cooling gas to the test pieces 2. The heating component 6 is set above any test piece position and is used to heat the test piece 2 located below it. The temperature monitoring system is used to monitor the temperature information of the test piece 2. The controller 7 is communicatively connected to the first driving member 3, the heating component 6, and the temperature monitoring system. With this configuration, the controller 7 is introduced to receive temperature data from the temperature monitoring system, and based on the temperature data, outputs control signals to the heating component 6 and the first driving component 3 to achieve precise control of the entire heating-cooling cycle of the test piece 2, thereby effectively improving its automation level and test efficiency, and further ensuring the accuracy of the test.
[0049] It should be noted that the heating component 6 can directly radiate or contact the test piece 2 from above, ensuring that the test piece 2 is heated to the target temperature uniformly and quickly during the test, thereby simulating the performance of the material in a high-temperature environment. The compressed gas generated by the air compressor 5 flows in the cooling pipe 4 and acts directly on the test piece 2, using the forced convection effect of the high-speed airflow to achieve rapid and efficient cooling. They work together to complete the air-cooled impact test.
[0050] Specifically, this embodiment provides the following exemplary technical solution: The clamping body 1 includes a mounting block 101, a flat threaded disc 102, a guide rail 103, a first slider 104, a second slider 105, a first clamping block 106, and a second clamping block 107. The flat threaded disc 102 is rotatably mounted in the arc-shaped groove of the mounting block 101, and the flat threaded disc 102 has a first arc-shaped threaded groove 1021 and a second arc-shaped threaded groove 1022. The guide rail 103 is fixedly connected to the mounting block 101, and the guide rail 103 has a through groove 1031 along its length. One end of the first slider 104 passes through the groove 1031 and is embedded in the first arc-shaped threaded groove 1021. The first clamping block 106 is mounted on the other end of the first slider 104. One end of the second slider 105 passes through the groove 1031 and is embedded in the second arc-shaped threaded groove 1022. The second clamping block 107 is mounted on the other end of the second slider 105. The clamping body 106 is rotatably mounted in the arc-shaped groove 1021. The clamping body 104 includes a mounting block 101, a flat threaded disc 102, a guide rail 103, a first slider 104, a second slider 105, a first clamping block 106, and a second clamping block 107. The clamping body 104 is rotatably mounted in the arc-shaped groove 1021. The clamping body 104 includes a mounting block 104, a second slider 105, a first slider 104, a second slider 105, a first clamping block 106, and a second clamping block 107. The clamping body 1 2 can drive the first slider 104 and the second slider 105 to move towards or away from each other along the slide groove 1031, so as to drive the first clamping block 106 and the second clamping block 107 to clamp or release the test piece 2. The first clamping block 106 and the second clamping block 107 are both made of porous refractory material. With this configuration, by rotating the flat threaded disk 102 clockwise or counterclockwise, the first arc-shaped threaded groove 1021 and the second arc-shaped threaded groove 1022 on it will also rotate. When the flat threaded disk 102 rotates in one direction (e.g., clockwise), the first arc-shaped threaded groove 1021 and the second arc-shaped threaded groove 1022 will simultaneously push the first slider 104 and the second slider 105, so that they converge towards the center along the straight slide groove 1031 of the guide rail 103, so as to achieve quick clamping and fixing of test pieces 2 of different sizes, further improving its flexibility and versatility. Moreover, through the self-locking characteristic of the thread, the clamping force can be maintained after the rotation stops, making the clamping stable and reliable.
[0051] Optionally, in order to further enhance the torsional resistance and load-bearing capacity of the first slider 104 and the second slider 105 during movement, a first protrusion 10 is provided between the two ends of the first slider 104, and a second protrusion 11 is provided between the two ends of the second slider 105. The first protrusion 10 and the second protrusion 11 are both disposed in the slide groove 1031, and the cross-sectional shape of the first protrusion 10 and the second protrusion 11 is adapted to the shape of the slide groove 1031 to form a sliding pair.
[0052] Optionally, the first arc-shaped threaded groove 1021 and the second arc-shaped threaded groove 1022 have opposite directions of rotation, and the first arc-shaped threaded groove 1021 and the second arc-shaped threaded groove 1022 are arranged alternately in the radial direction. This arrangement clarifies the rotational relationship between the first arc-shaped threaded groove 1021 and the second arc-shaped threaded groove 1022, ensuring that when the planar threaded disk 102 rotates in one direction, the first slider 104 and the second slider 105 can move in opposite directions (clamping) or move away from each other (releasing) in strict synchronization, achieving precise symmetrical linkage. At the same time, the first arc-shaped threaded groove 1021 and the second arc-shaped threaded groove 1022 are arranged alternately in the radial direction, so that the movement paths of the first slider 104 and the second slider 105 can be effectively planned and separated within the limited radius of the planar threaded disk 102. This layout makes the device structure more compact, and with the same planar threaded disk 102 size, the effective stroke of the corresponding slider can be increased, or the required clamping range can be achieved in a smaller space. At the same time, it ensures that the first arc-shaped thread groove 1021 and the second arc-shaped thread groove 1022 do not interfere with each other, and the movement is smooth and reliable.
[0053] Of course, in other embodiments, the first arc-shaped threaded groove 1021 and the second arc-shaped threaded groove 1022 may also be configured as concentric and symmetrical designs (similar to the Archimedes spiral or the curves commonly found in planar chucks).
[0054] Optionally, in order to further improve the clamping stability of the first clamping block 106 and the second clamping block 107 for the test piece 2, the first clamping block 106 is provided with a first step portion 1061 and the second clamping block 107 is provided with a second step portion 1071. The first step portion 1061 and the second step portion 1071 are arranged opposite to each other to support the two sides of the test piece 2 respectively.
[0055] Of course, in other embodiments, in order to further adapt to the cylindrical flame tube test piece 15 and the gas conduit test piece 16, the outer walls of the first clamping block 106 and the second clamping block 107 are provided with grooves. The grooves are used to abut against and fit the outer peripheral wall of the flame tube test piece 15 or the gas conduit test piece 16. The first slider 104 and the second slider 105 are both Z-shaped. The first slider 104 includes a first connecting part, a second connecting part and a third connecting part connected in sequence. The first clamping block 106 is installed on the first connecting part. The cross-sectional shape of the second connecting part is adapted to the shape of the slide groove 1031 to form a sliding pair. The third connecting part passes through the slide groove 1031 and is embedded in the first arc-shaped threaded groove 1021. The structure of the first slider 104 and the second slider 105 is exactly the same. Multiple thermocouples 12 are detachably attached to the surface of the flame tube test piece 15 and the gas conduit test piece 16. The multiple thermocouples 12 are arranged longitudinally and, together with the infrared thermometer 13, can monitor the temperature distribution of the test piece in real time.
[0056] In this embodiment, the heating assembly 6 includes a second drive member 61, a screw 62, a first nut 63, a second nut 64, a spray gun 65, and a fuel supply system. The fuel supply system is configured to supply fuel to the spray gun 65 so that the spray gun 65 can heat the test piece 2. The first nut 63 and the second nut 64 are both threadedly connected to the screw 62. The second drive member 61 is driveably connected to the screw 62 and can drive the screw 62 to rotate. The spray gun 65 is fixedly connected to the first nut 63, and the cooling pipe 4 is fixedly connected to the second nut 64. The second drive member 61 is communicatively connected to the controller 7. Further, the second drive member 61 is a servo motor, and the heating assembly 6 also includes a guide groove, in which the first nut 63 and the second nut 64 are slidably disposed. With this configuration, the second drive member 61 can drive the screw 62 to adaptively move the first nut 63 and the second nut 64, thereby switching the position of the spray gun 65 and the cooling pipe 4 above the test piece 2.
[0057] Furthermore, the fuel supply system includes an acetylene tank 8 and an oxygen tank 9 for supplying fuel and oxidizer, wherein the acetylene tank 8 and the oxygen tank 9 maintain a safe distance of not less than ten meters.
[0058] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 9 As shown, the spray gun 65 has an axially extending through-type oxygen channel 651 and an annular acetylene channel 652 surrounding the oxygen channel 651. The acetylene channel 652 connects to the acetylene tank 8, and the oxygen channel 651 connects to the oxygen tank 9. The acetylene channel 652 and the oxygen channel 651 are isolated from each other by a radially spaced structure, forming a coaxial annular gap dual-channel gas supply system. This structure achieves gas path separation and airflow isolation, effectively ensuring the flow field stability and operational safety of oxygen and acetylene during the delivery process of the spray gun 65. Simultaneously, it provides optimized hydrodynamic conditions for the subsequent formation of uniform and controllable premixing or laminar combustion at the outlet of the spray gun 65, ensuring that the two gases, after mixing at the outlet, can ignite to produce high-temperature combustion gas, heating the test object to a predetermined temperature.
[0059] Further, please refer to Figure 10As shown, a Laval nozzle 17 is also installed at the end of the outlet of the acetylene channel 652 and the oxygen channel 651. The Laval nozzle 17 has an acceleration channel inside, which accelerates the mixed gas through its convergent-expanding shape, thereby accelerating the gas flow at the outlet of the acetylene channel 652 and the oxygen channel 651 to a supersonic state. The Laval nozzle 17 is provided with a first cooling channel 19 to protect the pipe wall. The first cooling channel 19 can be connected to an external chiller. At the same time, multiple sensor assemblies 18 are installed on the inner wall of the Laval nozzle 17. The multiple sensor assemblies 18 are arranged at intervals along the axial direction. The sensor assemblies 18 are communicatively connected to the controller 7, and the sensor assemblies 18 are high-frequency temperature / pressure sensors. The sensor assemblies 18 can import the temperature and pressure data inside the Laval nozzle 17 into the controller 7. By coupling the temperature and pressure distribution inside the Laval nozzle 17 with the three-dimensional CFD simulation results, the gas flow velocity inside the pipe can be inferred, thereby further regulating the oxygen and acetylene flow rates and realizing real-time monitoring and control of the gas flow velocity.
[0060] As an alternative embodiment, please refer to Figures 11 to 13 As shown, the spray gun 65 can also be configured as a ring-plug type nozzle structure, specifically: the spray gun 65 has an annular throat cover 653 and a plug cone 654. The plug cone 654 is disposed inside the annular throat cover 653, and the annular throat cover 653 and the plug cone 654 are spaced apart to form an annular combustion chamber. In the actual injection process, the combustion gas is introduced into the annular combustion chamber and accelerated to supersonic speed through the bottom of the annular converging-diverging flow channel of the annular throat cover 653. The supersonic jet flows closely against the surface of the plug cone 654 under the action of the ambient back pressure, so that the jet diameter can change with the ratio of combustion chamber pressure to ambient back pressure. Specifically, by adjusting the flow rates of oxygen and acetylene in real time and synchronously moving the plug cone 654 longitudinally to adjust the bottom cross-sectional area of the annular throat cover 653, the jet can ultimately switch between convergent and diverging states. Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, this allows for the adaptation of test pieces 2, flame tube test pieces 15, and gas conduit test pieces 16 of different sizes. In addition, the plug cone 654 is also equipped with a second cooling channel 20 that can be connected to an external chiller, and multiple sensor components 18 arranged in a row, which can also couple temperature and pressure data with three-dimensional CFD simulation results to inversely deduce gas flow velocity and monitor the jet velocity, temperature, and convergence / expansion state in real time, i.e., jet diameter.
[0061] In this embodiment, the temperature monitoring system includes an infrared thermometer 13 and several thermocouples 12. Each thermocouple 12 is correspondingly arranged with a specific clamping device 1. The thermocouples 12 are configured to contact the surface of the test piece 2 to measure the local contact temperature, while the infrared thermometer 13 is configured to measure the surface temperature of the test piece 2 non-contactly. Furthermore, the thermocouples 12 are adsorbed onto the test piece 2 using a high-temperature resistant vacuum suction cup and high-temperature tape, achieving sufficient contact without additional tooling and facilitating disassembly.
[0062] Optionally, the thermal barrier coating air-cooled impact testing apparatus further includes a turntable 14, with several clamping bodies 1 spaced apart and evenly arranged on the turntable 14 in a circumferential direction. A first driving member 3 is connected to the turntable 14 and can drive the turntable 14 to rotate. Further, the first driving member 3 is a servo motor.
[0063] In this embodiment, there are three clamping bodies 1, and the circumferential angle between adjacent clamping bodies 1 is 45 degrees. The turntable 14 is driven by the first driving member 3 and can rotate 0°, 45°, and 90°, thus having three turntable positions (see reference). Figures 1 to 3 (as shown) and the positions of the five test pieces (refer to) Figure 1 As shown), the five test piece positions are: the first test piece position 100, the second test piece position 200, the third test piece position 300, the fourth test piece position 400, and the fifth test piece position 500, and the test pieces corresponding to the five test piece positions are the first test piece, the second test piece, the third test piece, the fourth test piece, and the fifth test piece, respectively.
[0064] The test cycle process of the air-cooled impact test apparatus for thermal barrier coatings provided in this embodiment is described below:
[0065] Step S1: Move turntable 14 to the position of the first turntable (e.g., Figure 2 As shown), the second driving member 61 drives the screw 62 to move the first nut 63, so that the spray gun 65 is directly facing the test piece 2 (as shown). Figure 5 As shown in the figure, at this time, the third sample is heated, while the first and second samples are cooled.
[0066] Step S2, turntable 14 moves to the second turntable position (e.g.) Figure 1 As shown), the spray gun 65 continues to be directed at the test piece 2. At this time, the second test piece is heated, while the first and third test pieces are cooled.
[0067] Step S3: Move turntable 14 to the third turntable position (e.g., Figure 3 As shown), the spray gun 65 continues to be directed at the test piece 2. At this time, the first test piece is heated, while the second and third test pieces are cooled.
[0068] In step S4, the turntable 14 moves to the first turntable position, and the second drive member 61 drives the screw 62 to move the second nut 64, so that the cooling pipe 4 is directly facing the test piece 2 (e.g., Figure 6 As shown in the figure, all test pieces 2 are now cooled.
[0069] It should be noted that by controlling the cooling time in step S4, the heating / cooling time ratio can be adjusted. The timing of the turntable 14 switching positions is determined by the temperature of the test piece 2.
