Two arc functions are employed for controlling the internal and external angles. The separation process in the cyclone tube is calculated by using two-fluid model based on the Eulerian-Eulerian method.The results show that the structure with the internal outlet angle smaller than the external one is more beneficial to the separation performance. It is found that the small internal angle can help increase the swirl number,while the small external angle can help increase the friction coefficient. Several groups of numerical simulations are conducted for the air intake unit of the gas turbine in practice. When the internal outlet angle is 35° and the external outlet angle is 40°,the blade has sufficient cyclone strength and the separation rate of particles with diameters of 10—100 μm is between70%—98%. The small blade angle is more conducive to the separation of fine particles,leading to violent collision of large particles on the outer wall and reduction of separation efficiency. In addition,reducing the external angle is conducive to the discharge of large particles.展开更多

Ho...The utilization of Inlet Guide Vane (IGV) plays a key factor in affecting the instability evolution. Existing literature mainly focuses on the effect of IGV on instability inception that occurs in the rotor region. However, with the emergence of compressor instability starting from the stator region, the mechanism of various instability inceptions that occurs in different blade rows due to the change of IGV angles should be further examined. In this study, experiments were focused on three types of instability inceptions observed previously in a 1.5-stage axial flow compressor. To analyze the conversion of stall evolutions, the compressor rotating speed was set to 17 160 r/min, at which both the blade loading in the stator hub region and rotor tip region were close to the critical value before final compressor stall. Meanwhile, the dynamic test points with high-response were placed to monitor the pressures both at the stator trailing edges and rotor tips. The results indicate that the variation of reaction determines the region where initial instability occurs. Indeed, negative pre-rotation of the inlet guide vane leads to high-reaction, initiating stall disturbance from the rotor region. Positive pre-rotation results in low-reaction, initiating stall disturbance from the stator region. Furthermore, the type of instability evolution is affected by the radial loading distribution under different IGV angles. Specifically, a spike-type inception occurs at the rotor blade tip with a large angle of attack at the rotor inlet (−2°, −4° and −6°). Meanwhile, the critical total pressure ratio at the rotor tip is 1.40 near stall. As the angle of attack decreases, the stator blade loading reaches its critical boundary, with a value of approximately 1.35. At this moment, if the rotor tip maintains high blade loading similar to the stator hub, the partial surge occurs (0° and +2°);otherwise, the hub instability occurs (+4° and +6°).展开更多

Aimed at optimizing the machining error, this paper presents a framework that integrates toolpath planning and process parameter regulation. Firstly, an Iterative Subdivision Algorithm(ISA) for clamped Bspline curve is proposed, based on which toolpath planning method towards the LE is developed.Secondly, the removal effect of Cutter Contact(CC) point on the sampling points is investigated in the calculation of grinding dwell time by traversing in u-v space. A global material removal model is constructed for the solution. Thirdly, the previous two steps are interconnected based on the Improved Whale Optimization Algorithm(IWOA), and the optimal parameter combination is searched using the Root Mean Square Error(RMSE) of the machining error as the objective function. Based on this, the off-line programming and robotic grinding experiments are carried out. The experimental results show that the proposed method with error optimization can achieve 0.0143 mm mean value and 0.0160 mm standard deviations of LE surface error, which is an improvement of32.5% and 33.9%, respectively, compared with previous method.展开更多

文摘The utilization of Inlet Guide Vane (IGV) plays a key factor in affecting the instability evolution. Existing literature mainly focuses on the effect of IGV on instability inception that occurs in the rotor region. However, with the emergence of compressor instability starting from the stator region, the mechanism of various instability inceptions that occurs in different blade rows due to the change of IGV angles should be further examined. In this study, experiments were focused on three types of instability inceptions observed previously in a 1.5-stage axial flow compressor. To analyze the conversion of stall evolutions, the compressor rotating speed was set to 17 160 r/min, at which both the blade loading in the stator hub region and rotor tip region were close to the critical value before final compressor stall. Meanwhile, the dynamic test points with high-response were placed to monitor the pressures both at the stator trailing edges and rotor tips. The results indicate that the variation of reaction determines the region where initial instability occurs. Indeed, negative pre-rotation of the inlet guide vane leads to high-reaction, initiating stall disturbance from the rotor region. Positive pre-rotation results in low-reaction, initiating stall disturbance from the stator region. Furthermore, the type of instability evolution is affected by the radial loading distribution under different IGV angles. Specifically, a spike-type inception occurs at the rotor blade tip with a large angle of attack at the rotor inlet (−2°, −4° and −6°). Meanwhile, the critical total pressure ratio at the rotor tip is 1.40 near stall. As the angle of attack decreases, the stator blade loading reaches its critical boundary, with a value of approximately 1.35. At this moment, if the rotor tip maintains high blade loading similar to the stator hub, the partial surge occurs (0° and +2°);otherwise, the hub instability occurs (+4° and +6°).

文摘To investigate the impact of guide vane geometry—specifically,outlet angle,blade count,and radial height—on the performance of a Pump as Turbine(PAT),radial guide vanes were introduced upstream of the impeller in an IS80-50-315 low-specific-speed centrifugal PAT.Using an orthogonal test design,numerical simulations were conducted on 16 different PAT configurations,and the influence of vane geometry on performance was analyzed through a range analysis to determine the optimal parameter combinations.The results indicate that the number of guide vane blades significantly affects both the hydraulic efficiency and water head of the PAT under optimal operating conditions.Notably,the hydraulic efficiency of Configuration No.1(featuring five guide vane blades,a 6°outlet angle,and a 46 mm radial height)is 4.31%higher than that of Configuration No.13(with the same blade count but a 9°outlet angle and a 52 mm radial height).Additionally,Configuration No.1 exhibits lower turbulence kinetic energy dissipation and reduced blade loading.Furthermore,the study reveals that a smaller guide vane outlet angle and reduced radial height contribute to improved operational stability.

文摘This study investigates the forced vibration response of a two-row model of an Inlet Guide Vane(IGV)and rotor at resonance speed through numerical simulations.A resonant response prediction method based on equivalent damping balance has been validated,which ensures computational accuracy while reducing response calculation time to only 1%of the traditional transient response method.At resonance speed,unsteady pressure disturbances on the rotor blade surface mainly arise from two sources:IGV wakes and blade vibrations.The unsteady pressure caused by the IGV wakes provides excitation for the system,while the unsteady pressure caused by rotor blade vibrations provides damping.By studying the characteristics of unsteady pressure caused by IGV wakes and vibrations at resonance speed,a method for separating unsteady pressure caused by stator wakes and vibrations has been presented,accurately obtaining aerodynamic damping under multi-row resonance conditions.Compared to the aerodynamic damping obtained from multi-row scenarios without separating unsteady pressures caused by stator wakes and vibrations,and the traditional isolated blade row scheme,the aerodynamic damping considering the effects of multi-row and IGV wakes at resonance speed is smaller.Based on the separated unsteady pressures caused by IGV wakes and vibrations,and combined with the equivalent damping balance method for predicting forced response,a forced response analysis method considering both flow field disturbance excitation and damping effects has been established.

文摘The machining precision of blades is critical to the service performance of aero engines.The Leading Edge(LE) of high-pressure compressor blades poses a challenge for precision machining due to its thin size, high degree of bending, and significant change of curvature. Aimed at optimizing the machining error, this paper presents a framework that integrates toolpath planning and process parameter regulation. Firstly, an Iterative Subdivision Algorithm(ISA) for clamped Bspline curve is proposed, based on which toolpath planning method towards the LE is developed.Secondly, the removal effect of Cutter Contact(CC) point on the sampling points is investigated in the calculation of grinding dwell time by traversing in u-v space. A global material removal model is constructed for the solution. Thirdly, the previous two steps are interconnected based on the Improved Whale Optimization Algorithm(IWOA), and the optimal parameter combination is searched using the Root Mean Square Error(RMSE) of the machining error as the objective function. Based on this, the off-line programming and robotic grinding experiments are carried out. The experimental results show that the proposed method with error optimization can achieve 0.0143 mm mean value and 0.0160 mm standard deviations of LE surface error, which is an improvement of32.5% and 33.9%, respectively, compared with previous method.
文摘The turbine blades operate under high temperature and high pressure conditions,and when using radiation thermometry,the influence of radiation from surrounding blades leads to measurement errors.To address this issue,this paper develops a three-dimensional discretized dynamic radiation transfer model based on the blade shape of the turbine.The relationship between the radiation angle coefficient of the surrounding blades and the rotation angle of the blade under test is analyzed.The radiation angle coefficient is calculated using the triangular element method,and temperature inversion is performed based on the effective emissivity to compute the measurement error.The results show that under dynamic high temperature conditions,the temperature measurement error caused by reflection at the selected 60%leaf height point varies with the rotation angle,and the maximum reaches 25.58K.The angular coefficient exhibits periodic fluctuations with changes in rotation angle,and the maximum effective emissivity increases as the rotation angle increases.As the blade height increases,the impact of reflected radiation on radiometric temperature measurement errors shows a decreasing trend.This study provides a reference for radiation thermometry in dynamic high-temperature environments.
