Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of engines and parts thereof, and particularly relates to a turbine guide vane and a turbojet engine using the turbine guide vane. Background Art

[0002] As an emerging small thermal engine, micro-turbojet engines are widely used in military and civilian fields due to their advantages such as light weight, high power, long life, low fuel consumption, compact structure and high energy density. Among them, the turbine guide vane plays a vital role in the turbojet engine. Its main functions are as follows:

[0003] Guiding airflow: The turbine guide vane shape and arrangement effectively guide high-temperature, high-pressure gas from the combustion chamber into the turbine. This process achieves efficient energy conversion, converting thermal energy into mechanical energy.

[0004] Reduce airflow loss: Through the carefully designed turbine guide vane, the vortex and loss generated by the airflow during the flow process can be reduced, thereby improving the efficiency of the entire engine.

[0005] Balanced gas flow: The arrangement of the turbine guide vane helps to evenly distribute the airflow among the blades, avoid flow deviation and ensure stable operation of the turbine.

[0006] Due to these multiple functions, the turbine guide vane is an indispensable and critical component in gas turbine engines. The turbine guide vane consists of a guide vane cover and a guide vane located within the guide vane cover. The guide vane is fixedly connected to the engine's outer casing, and the guide vane is mounted on the outer periphery of the bearing housing end of the engine's main shaft. Due to the harsh operating conditions of the turbine guide vane, the guide vanes are surrounded by the gas flow and directly contact the high-temperature gas, resulting in high and unevenly distributed temperatures. Therefore, the guide vanes are preferably made of high-temperature alloys. However, due to the high hardness and difficulty in machining, the guide vane cover is preferably made of heat-resistant steel, which is easy to machine. This facilitates threaded holes in the guide vane cover and bolts to securely connect the guide vane to the engine's outer casing. The guide vane and guide vane are designed as separate components, with a radial gap between them for easy installation. However, in actual use, it has been found that during engine operation, the turbine is affected by axial reverse thrust, causing the turbine, guide vane, main shaft, and its components to move toward the engine's compressor, resulting in axial movement, which can affect engine operation and, in severe cases, even damage the engine.

[0007] This application is proposed in view of the above-mentioned technical defects.
