Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of gas film cooling, in particular to a gas film cooling efficiency distribution prediction method and system and a computer readable medium. BACKGROUND

[0002] Gas film cooling technology is a key technology for protecting high-temperature components (such as turbine blades) in aero-engines and gas turbines from thermal damage. The principle is to introduce cooling air flow into the surface of high-temperature components through a specific gas film hole structure to form a continuous gas film heat insulation layer, thereby effectively blocking the heat conduction and convective heat transfer of high-temperature gas to the base material, reducing the surface temperature to achieve cooling effect. With the continuous increase of turbine inlet temperature, the gas film cooling structure is becoming more and more complex, and typical representatives include fan-shaped holes, cylindrical holes, and new gas film cooling structures such as sawtooth grooves. These complex geometries not only improve the gas film cooling efficiency, but also increase the complexity of flow and heat transfer.

[0003] Currently, the research on gas film cooling performance mainly relies on computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation. Although the traditional CFD method can provide high-resolution flow field and cooling efficiency distribution, it is necessary to re-divide the grid and set the solution every time the geometric parameters or operating conditions (such as blowing ratio, density ratio) change, and the single case calculation often takes a lot of time. In actual engineering design, it is difficult to meet the needs of rapid iterative design.

[0004] In order to reduce the calculation cost and improve the optimization efficiency, researchers try to introduce surrogate models (such as random forest, long short-term memory network and neural network) to predict the film cooling efficiency. Although these methods reduce the calculation cost to some extent, the traditional model still has limitations in dealing with complex two-dimensional cooling efficiency distribution. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an efficient method that can quickly and accurately predict the gas film cooling efficiency distribution to support the design of cooling systems for aero-engines and gas turbines.

[0020] (2) according to the set parameter condition, the grid nodes located on the wall boundary are extracted from the calculation grid of gas film cooling calculation model, each node includes spatial position coordinates and corresponding temperature; For sawtooth channel gas film cooling structure, parameter conditions include blowing ratio, channel height and sawtooth angle; To ensure the diversity and representativeness of data, Latin hypercube sampling (LHS) method is used to uniformly sample from parameter space, and 505 groups of samples are generated;Parameter conditions are set as follows: blowing ratio (M) 0.5~2.0, channel height (H) 0.0127mm~9.525mm and sawtooth angle (α) 22.5°~60.0°;Among them, 404 groups are used for training, and 101 groups are used for testing;To verify grid independence, 2.37 million to 13.1 million grid elements are tested, and it is found that 8 million grid elements can ensure the balance between calculation accuracy and cost, so this grid size is used.

[0021] (3) for each parameter condition combination, run ANSYS CFX simulation to obtain the two-dimensional distribution of cooling efficiency at the bottom surface of the calculation model, as CFD simulation result, the calculation formula of cooling efficiency is as follows: Wherein, is the adiabatic wall temperature, is the main flow temperature, is the coolant temperature; (4) according to the spatial position coordinates of each node under different parameter conditions, corresponding temperature, constitute gas film cooling dataset.

[0022] S2, a gas film cooling efficiency prediction model based on a deep learning model PointNet and a conditional generative adversarial network CGAN is constructed, including a feature extraction module, a generator and a discriminator; The feature extraction module is constructed by the deep learning model PointNet, and the feature spaces of the generator and the discriminator are constructed by the conditional generative adversarial network CGAN; Referring to Figure 3 The feature extraction module extracts global features and local features from the input gas film cooling data set, and splices them into a tensor containing global features and local features, which is input into the generator. The generator maps the tensor to a two-dimensional gas film cooling efficiency distribution image. The authenticity of the generated two-dimensional gas film cooling efficiency distribution image is evaluated by the discriminator. In the training process, the generator and the discriminator are optimized through adversarial learning to realize the mapping between high-dimensional parameters and cooling efficiency distribution. Specifically as follows: Referring to Figure 4 The generator inputs the spliced tensor, obtains a feature map with a resolution of 64x64 through a full connection layer (Linear), and then passes through 4 layers of convolutional network (Conv2d) and upsampling. The first 3 layers pass through the Relu activation function, and the feature map resolution is gradually increased to 1024x1024.

The network uses LeakyReLU activation function and BatchNormalization layer to enhance feature extraction capability. Finally, the Sigmoid function is used to output the discrimination probability.

[0023] S3, training the gas film cooling efficiency prediction model using the gas film cooling data set; The training process is realized using the PyTorch framework on an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 GPU. In the training process, the BCE loss function and the Adam optimizer are used for optimization: The loss function of the discriminator is defined as: In the formula: is a noise vector, is a CFD real image, is conditional information, is a binary cross-entropy loss, is a generated image, To judge the discriminator in given conditions Next, the real image The judgment result; The optimizer selects Adam, and the parameter settings are: the initial learning rates of the generator and the discriminator are set to 1x10 ⁻4 and 2x10⁻ 4 , the momentum parameters =0.5, =0.999, the batch size is 8, and the training round number is 500.

And the time consumption of single prediction is several seconds, compared with the calculation time of several hours of CFD simulation, the efficiency is improved by hundreds of times.

[0025] To further verify the model performance, the error distribution of the training set and the test set is analyzed: as shown in Figure 7 , Figure 8 The absolute error and relative error analysis of 404 training samples and 101 test samples shows that the prediction ability of the model on the training set and the test set is good, wherein the absolute error is not more than 0.05, and the relative error is not more than 6%.
