Description
- The present invention relates to a turbine blade cascade endwall.
- On a turbine blade cascade endwall in a turbine serving as a motive power generator that obtains motive power by converting kinetic energy of a fluid to rotational motion, a so-called “crossflow (secondary flow)” occurs from the pressure side of one turbine blade to the suction side of an adjacent turbine blade.
- In order to enhance the turbine performance, it is necessary to reduce this crossflow and to reduce secondary-flow loss that occurs in association with the crossflow.
- Therefore, as a turbine blade cascade endwall that reduces such secondary-flow loss associated with crossflow to improve turbine performance, one having non-axisymmetric irregularities formed thereon has been known (for example, see Patent Citation 1).
- Patent Citation 1: U.S. Pat. No. 6,283,713, Specification.
- In a turbine blade cascade endwall disclosed in the above-described Patent Citation, a concave portion is formed on a suction-side trailing edge of one turbine blade and a convex portion is formed on a pressure-side trailing edge of an adjacent turbine blade.
- However, in the convex portion formed on the pressure-side trailing edge, static pressure declines thereat, and a discharge angle of a blade outlet ends up increasing, which deteriorates the performance of a blade cascade located downstream of a blade cascade having irregularities, thereby posing the risk of decreasing the overall performance of a turbine having a plurality of blade cascades.
- The present invention has been conceived in light of above-described circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a turbine blade cascade endwall that is capable of reducing a crossflow and that is also capable of reducing secondary-flow loss that occurs in association with the crossflow, thus being capable of achieving enhanced turbine performance.
- In order to solve the above-described problems, the present invention employs the following solutions.
- defining 0% Cax as a leading edge position of the turbine stationary blades or the turbine moving blades in an axial direction and 100% Cax as a trailing edge position of the turbine stationary blades or the turbine moving blades in the axial direction, and defining 0% pitch as a position on a pressure side surface of the turbine stationary blades or the turbine moving blades, and 100% pitch as a position on a suction side surface of a turbine stationary blade or a turbine moving blade facing the pressure side surface of the turbine stationary blade or the turbine moving blade, a convex portion, which is gently swollen as a whole, which has an apex at a position of 0 to 20% pitch at a position of 5 to 25% Cax, which gently slopes from this apex toward a downstream side and the suction side surface of the adjacently disposed turbine stationary blade or turbine moving blade, and which slopes slightly steeply from the apex toward an upstream side, is provided between one turbine stationary blade or turbine moving blade and another turbine stationary blade or turbine moving blade disposed adjacent to one turbine stationary blade or turbine moving blade.
- With the turbine blade cascade endwall according to the first aspect of the present invention, because the static pressure near the convex portion can be reduced and the flow of working fluid in the axial direction can be increased, it is possible to reduce the crossflow and to reduce secondary-flow loss that occurs in association with the crossflow; therefore, enhanced turbine performance can be achieved.
- A turbine blade cascade endwall according to a first aspect of the present invention is a turbine blade cascade endwall that is positioned on a tip side or a hub side of a plurality of turbine stationary blades or turbine moving blades arranged in the form of a ring, wherein, defining 0% Cax as a leading edge position of the turbine stationary blades or the turbine moving blades in an axial direction and 100% Cax as a trailing edge position of the turbine stationary blades or the turbine moving blades in the axial direction, and defining 0% pitch as a position on a pressure side surface of the turbine stationary blades or the turbine moving blades and 100% pitch as a position on a suction side surface of a turbine stationary blade or a turbine moving blade facing the pressure side surface of the turbine stationary blade or the turbine moving blade, a concave portion, which is gently depressed as a whole, which has a bottom point at a position of 70 to 90% pitch in a position of 5 to 25% Cax, which gently slopes from this bottom point toward a downstream side and the pressure side surface of the adjacently disposed turbine stationary blade or turbine moving blade, and which slopes slightly steeply from the bottom point toward an upstream side, is provided between one turbine stationary blade or turbine moving blade and another turbine stationary blade or turbine moving blade disposed adjacent to one turbine stationary blade or turbine moving blade.
- With the turbine blade cascade endwall according to the second aspect of the present invention, because the static pressure near the concave portion can be increased and the flow of working fluid in the axial direction can be increased, it is possible to reduce the crossflow and to reduce secondary-flow loss that occurs in association with the crossflow; therefore, enhanced turbine performance can be achieved.
- It is further preferable that a second convex portion that is gently swollen as a whole or a convex portion be provided near a throat of the turbine blade cascade endwall according to the first aspect or the second aspect described above.
- According to the turbine blade cascade endwall as described above, because the flow rate of the working fluid passing near the throat increases, thereby reducing the static pressure thereof and alleviating a pressure gradient generated at the suction side surface of the turbine stationary blade or the turbine moving blade in a blade-height direction, vortices generated at the suction side surface of the turbine stationary blade or the turbine moving blade can be suppressed, and therefore, it is possible to reduce secondary-flow loss associated with these vortices.
- A turbine according to a third aspect of the present invention is provided with the turbine blade cascade endwall according to the first aspect or the second aspect described above.
- With the turbine according the third aspect of the present invention, because it is equipped with a turbine blade cascade endwall that is capable of reducing the crossflow and is capable of reducing secondary-flow loss that occurs in association with the crossflow, it is possible to achieve enhanced overall turbine performance.
- With the present invention, an advantage is afforded in that it is possible to reduce the crossflow and to reduce secondary-flow loss that occurs in association with the crossflow, and therefore, enhanced turbine performance can be achieved.
